My first visit of the season, having been there for the Mansfield game, I vowed not to go again. The last time I watched non league football was Trowbridge Town back in the 70's!
But, I found myself helpless. That drug, that you just can't get out of your system was calling - something made me go (this would have been the first season since 1969 that I would not have gone - so my vow was always going to be difficult to carry out!)
My brother said don't go - if you do we will loose, how right he was.
My thoughts - oh my god we were terrible, worse than against Mansfield (where we actually created some chances). No midfield and no one up front who could hold it up. I was surprised that Dawson was not switched to the other wing as they had clearly done their homework on him. Thought Balatana had good touch and vision, Taylor worked hard but neither Harrison or Blissett were good enough to give him the support he needed and McChrystal looked very steady.
Not sure how Easlieigh compare to other teams you have seen this year? but I felt they were very mobile, had a good plan, executed it very well and would probably hold their own in the division above. Constable was a real handful and had the ref in the palm of his hand (how would Taylor have got on if he was playing with Constable up front?)
Lets hope Clark does bring some one (or two) in next week. Can't see us winning the league or playoff's if he does not.
