Last time we had a loan LB-think it was Harris or maybe Wilson,-he scored a cracking OG at Vale but Billy Bob equailed.

I wasn't there so have to rely on your usually accurate summation - thanks for a comprehensive report. What I would say- I winced when I saw who the ref was as he has followed us up from the conference and always seems to have a shocker and proof to me that there re not enough people taking up refereeing and the EFL have to keep even the poor ones on because they do not have enough. Secondly, apart from injuries I struggle to find a Premiership/Championship team who change lineups and formations as often as we do. Is it done to confuse the opposition? or our players?

He thinks he s pep, but if this carries on it’s going to be pop, injures aside we are so disorganised, looked good against Pompey then Southend we looked a shambles. Defence coach don’t make me laugh.

I think Leads is now their joint top scorer Lines is ours and he's only played 5mins of football No, Payne is.

Agree with Steve K's evaluation of the performance; the team could barely string two passes together and again there was no discernable pattern to our play. I think DC's hampered in this respect by having so many players unavailable and to a degree is having to cobble a team together. I did disagree with some of his player ratings though, Leadbitter may not be the best FB in the league but I thought he had a decent game and he does provide an attacking outlet with his pace which is lacking in the rest of the team. Matthews provided our only creative spark and was the only one looking like making anything happen. Upson and Clarke I thought were both poor and don't look as though they can form an effective partnership in the middle. Rodman was abysmal;when he wasn't giving the ball away he was getting caught in possession. The rest of the team may not have played that well but they all made an effort unlike Rodman who didn't look as though he fancied it. I hope he gets a bollocking from DC and should be returned to the bench. If he can't get motivated against his old club then when will he? Still it is a point gained and in the current run of form as Steve k says we should take it and move on.
