I think the poor performance was due to nerves. That is the biggest match that most of the Stanley players have ever played in and they are mostly very young and inexperienced. That's why we didn't mange to play our usual passing game as they were ''under pressure'' and just bottled it and reverted back to long ball. Now the stanley players know what to expect and are back to our usual surroundings where we have played extremely well (best home form in the league i think?), we will hopefully play like we know we can and win the match.

We need to close Stevenage down, pile pressure on them and keep the football. I also think that long would be useful to deal with the height of their number 4 (Hessey was better in the second half than first at doing that, but wasnt as effective as i think long would be)
