Aye. An interesting one. Would like to see the energy and press in the midfield longer term mind. Think it will allow us to compete away from home to a higher level. Interesting selections moving forward.
Was against dropping Dobson and McGeouch and didnt think the two in midfield would work. But I was wrong as results proved.

Be interesting to see how McGeouch, O9 and Dobson feature in coming weeks.
 
At which stage will you stop judging him on last season and start giving him credit for this season?

After more than 7 games that's for sure. I won't attribute much to cup games, still its just two reserve teams playing.

Four of the five league games have been incredibly poor performances, and Wimbledon were an appalling team. Win the next 5-6 games AND improve the performances substantially and I'll reconsider my position
 
Thought we were in for a drubbing. Very happy to be proved again tonight that I knar absolutely fuck all about football
I think you’re being a bit harsh on yourself there.

Given our current level, on paper, their second string should be good enough to knock us out. If things stand, this is a very good result against a team with players experienced enough and of a calibre more than good enough to wipe the floor with us.
