I blame aurthur and branch for the first goal. Branch was slow the whole first half (seemed tired) and Aurthur probably should have come out for it.

I'd have to agree, Miles was poor.His runs lacked conviction and his crossing was dire,be it from open play or set pieces.
I couldn't fault Arthur today and certainly not for their first goal.Rocky Williams just seemed to switch off and leave their man totally unmarked.As for the penalty Williams gave away...he was lucky to escape without a caution,let alone see red.
We've don't seem to have learned much from last season with regards to the defensive display on show today.I still stand by what many have said before,in that we are short of Two decent defenders.
We do have plenty of options going forward and we were unlucky not to score today.However unless we learn how to defend better it's going to be another long,hard season.
