Overall, thought we were unlucky to miss on 3 or 4 occasions but between the goalkeeper and the shooting boots, it was not to be our night. But I am not going to complain about the result, as long as we beat the bigger teams in the division e.g. Swindon this Saturday for a start, then I will be happy, just wish I could get there, but fate serves me a cruel hand and makes me work for the next 2 Saturdays, so the next game I could get to is Crawley away and then the following home match. We shall see.

I too was ashamed of the treatment of Akin by the Clayton end idiots, plus all the young kids of about 10 years old running down to the front making the "W" gestures in his face. No wonder he looked bemused, all 6 foot 3 of him. Could have forgiven him for taking a swipe at the pests.
As for the game itself, I thought we lacked cohesion going forward. We needed someone to put a foot on the ball and use a bit of nous. I presume Charlie wasn't available due to injury, otherwise what does he have to do to get a start in this team?
