sold out

Like a prime Barcelona that half. 

Should be over this.

They are only creating when we play slowly at back or Tutu gives ball away.

 

3 or 4 up would not be unreasonable

Tell you what, we've looked brilliant, fantastic performance marred by some frustration at it not being a more comfortable scoreline.

Should be 0-3, could be 0-5.

Convert one early in the second half and settle them down ideally. Think Blackett-Taylor clearly too good for the fullback, Apter looks tidy, if a little lacking athleticism and confidence. McAtee all action against but lacking quality and confidence himself, how he grabs one, needs it the lad.

McAtee wouldn’t score any chances the way he is playing. Can’t lack his effort though.

Johnston been a weak link and Tutu looks asleep

Well that was bloody good.

Should be home and dry but can’t complain with how good we’ve looked.

The front 4 look seriously dangerous and playing as a unit.

Forino just needs to be in this defence - he just makes everything look solid.

Erhahon bossing things - maybe finally having a run of games is starting to have an effect. He looks confident!

Best we have played away from home, loads of great moments, only Tutu seems a little of it for me with him losing it often.

Would be already criminal if we throw this away.

Erhahon has been brilliant 

Johnston's Passing is dreadful, should be out of sight. lets hope for an even better second half!!

Looking fantastic. What a difference an early goal makes, playing with lots of confidence, creating plenty of chances. Could do with another, early - we've always got a defensive wobble in us. Really positive though. 

Credit to the centre mids - looked absolutely dominant.

The first 20 minutes of the second half will be important - not conceding and ideally going further ahead is the priority. We don’t want to be having to throw subs on to win it as per usual. 
Ironic that despite playing some decent stuff, we still find ourselves talking about taking our chances.

Some good performances though, especially Erhahon, Forino and Dalby imo

Cracking first half should be 3 up but more to come this second half .

Ethan's best game for us by far. Totally dominated the midfield. 

Just need to be more clinical. Get an early goal second half and we could get 3 or 4 here. 

Equally we need not to let them back in it.

Look like 2 very good signings but Erhahon has been the star man for me......breaks things up nicely and moves the ball quickly.

He just can’t pass and gives away cheap throw ins and corners. 

Could have had half a dozen up to now. 

Looking back at highlights always uses hindsight but JM just needed to play a pass like he did for Dempsey 2nd chance v Burton and CBT would have a certain goal, perhaps he didn't want to risk the defender blocking the passing lane but his shot was so weak, like even if it was powerful, it would have been saved.

Great pass he played for the goal like and he almost got one in return of CBT later on in half, but was just overcooked.

 

Apter has looked good but that miss was awful; he had time to control the ball and pick his spot

But was he ginger ? 

Anyway COYWM get the three points

Their lad is trying to wind him up. In his ear all the time, including after the foul that was not given when EE on the ground.

Does not to get involved hopefully SS has a word.

Yes he has a bit of a reputation for getting wound up at Lincoln but it hasn’t happened here so far so let’s hope it doesn’t?

Need to kill this game off early in the 2nd half. We have faded in games too often...

Blackett-Taylor looking a right unit and a constant threat, apter could/shouldve took a touch and we’d be at least 2-0 up. Hope this doesn’t bite us in the arse. Tutu looking dodgy and Demps not in the game at all

Agree with the other stuff but Dempsey's won loads of challenges and interceptions and knitted the play with little passes, helped start the move for the goal too.

We all see it different but I'd say he's oozed quality and composure.  Yes it was a poor finish, he tried to place/curl it into the bottom corner but got it wrong, aside from that every involvement has been composed and effective.  A massive step up last 2 games on what we've been used to last few months.
