If I was a 'Roy Of The Rovers' artist I'd draw that goal

 

[Taffyduck]

Dont think he's succeeding at making himself available for the ball, not sure if that's confidence or experience but it isn't working for him.

I like him and he’s better than hemir at the moment

 

[Fetch Fletch]

That is a very very good goal!

You see that class run, and then he hits it with the outside of his foot absolutely perfectly.

 

[Veryoldrokerender]

We have not go out of first gear, have a goal in us

I would be amazed if we are playing Championship football beyond this season

Are you smoking something … if so don’t give me any … oh forget it’s me I totally misread what you wrote … I’ll get me coat

 

[PS]

Aouchiche and Rusyn on and go at them - we're too passive up top.

 

[Durham lad]

For me...Ba off and Aouchiche (sic) on..roberts out wide right

 

[Taffyduck]

You see that class run, and then he hits it with the outside of his foot absolutely perfectly.

Hits the underside of the bar too. No keeper is saving that.

 

[rubberface]

That goal brings them out a bit more. Tailor made for Rusyn to ruin the channels and Ba to get in behind. Too many balls coming into feet

they've had all 10 men in our half at times tbf. We've been like the ones sitting in at times.

 

[McMackem]

I hope they get this crap out of their system before Saturday.

Okey dokey.

 

[Boots]

What a piece of magic … lovely run and fabulously taken strike … hawwwaaayyyy

The biggest difference.. for all the ability on show he was the first one to show any real desire to make it happen. We've been OK. But Huggins took it on himself to force the issue. Proper driving run. Outstanding.

 

[Millhouse]

Decent half, excellent goal but we’re capable of much more.

Hopefully we’ll still be ahead before 60 mins when Burstow and Ba inevitably and deservedly come off.

 

[Becs]

Bit of a flat first half. Neither side really looked like scoring then Huggins pops up with a wonder goal. Scenes and limbs.

Always goals in my threads @hank williams

 

[YorkMackem]

Symptomatic of a young side out thought somewhat and to be expected. Up to the manager to resolve the tactics, but I'm not worried

 

[Fetch Fletch]

Hits the underside of the bar too. No keeper is saving that.

the perfect goal, but it'll be lost in amongst the ball bouncing fortunately off Jerlintons face or something

 

[Whey]

Hoedt for them is shite! Run at him and we'll get a few more.

 

[10 Gary Rowells]

For me two things haven't worked. Firstly Burstow up front is awful. He looks out of his depth and barely challenges for headers, can't hold the ball up etc. Secondly, Roberts has been ineffectual at number 10 compared to Pritch, who really sets the tempo. For me, those two off and Rusyn and Auochiche on.

I like him and he’s better than hemir at the moment

If you are talking about Burstow, he's been painfully weak tonight. He has contributed nowt at all.

Haway Tony make some changes and the new boys on.. Burstow and Ba off

 

[SAFC11]

People really going overboard with it being a poor half of football. Its been fine, we scored the goal against a team that was trying to be difficult to breakdown. Ba was involved in 3-4 decent chances, Roberts and clarke likewise. Huggins played really well too. Home games are going to be more of a challenge for us unless we have a striker that is threatening or teams are more open at attacking us.

 

[Walt]

When he said they've got something to discuss now at half time. Fuck me they only get 15 minutes. It will take him the whole second half to finish a sentence

Could be worse. Could’ve been Don Goodman bigging up Watford (even after we scored).

 

[Billericay Dichio]

Clean sheet would be nice here lads.
