Re: vs Northampton

it amuses me how so few people have such a widely differing view of the same game!!

but I am no different to the rest of you so here's my two pences worth.

Taken in a nutshell we were pretty crap tonight BUT we conceded early to an absolute cracker of a goal and then not long after -despite dominating most of the open play we gave away a cheap penalty. My view of it was that it was a penalty about fiv eminutes before the ref actually blew! Edwards had tried to kick him in the head then pulled and pulled until eventually he pulled the guy over. At two nil down we were pretty nacked against a well drilled side. However their goalkeeper has still had to pull off two fantastic saves, Mullin and Grant have missed what appeared to be sitters from a couple of yards out, and we have ridiculously managed to miss a fifth penalty out of six.

Their third goal was comedy defending again though. Long throw that we have allowed to bounce three times before backing as far away from the striker as possible. It was only going in the back of the net and the once again stationary Martin was unable to save us.

I think that Martin needs to be a little quicker at coming off his line.
Joyce is a damned fine defender when it comes to distributing it out - its just the defending bit he struggled with.
Grant was crap tonight and how he won MOM only the drunken match sponsors will ever know.
Kee didn't look fit but was still the main threat we had in the first half and he will be pished at getting subbed again.
Mullin will know that he has had better games and few more ineffective.
Coley has to ensure that this pathetic long ball shy t does not rematerialise. And somebody needs to tell him that you are allowed to use more than one substitute particularly when losing 2-0.
Turner needs to stop thinking about why he agreed to sign a new two year deal.

Sounds negative? yes it is but as I said earlier, I don't think Northants were 3-0 better than us and we can consider ourselves hard done by - no matter how crap we were tonight
