Good job they work as footballers and not cleaners then.

He did skin a division 4 player and set up a chance, both with no outcome.

File with Stefan Moore, nothing to see here.

Nobs suits you sir

Job done.
Highlights for me Steer's penalty save and Ohare second half.
On way home and trying to dry off on the train!!

I thought we did okay at the start. We moved it around lovely. Then we seem to revert to hoofing it and the nice touches went for the mid part. We always seem to be clinging on for the final whistle without any belief that we will be ok. Sloppy possession at times - we'd win a decent ball just to try a hollywood pass and then lose it again...

But we won - yay!

 Cleaners can still perform with copious amounts of surface water.

If our teens can't shine against a shocking division 4 side then god help us.

Doing alright won't wash it.
You are on a au contraire mission tonight Nobs.

O'Hare was the big plus tonight. He was straight out of the trap and hopping all over the pitch. Lot of potential there.

Yes, I was very impressed too.

What a shit game that was, though. Since relegation, we seem to be on the telly all the time, and pretty much every time we just remind people of how glad they are they don't have to watch us stinking out the premier league any more.

Through to the next round and a good run out for the second string, yes, but fuck me, it'd be nice to see a convincing performance from us - say, once every six or seven months or so.

Agreed. To be fair I thought in spells we looked really good. Those spells were far too few though considering the opposition.

Oh, and I appreciate he was out of position, but I am yet to see anything to suggest signing Barnason was a good idea.

I think it might be a more realistic aspiration.

He'd only moan that the Moon wasn't made out of the right cheese and the stick gave him a splinter. Some people are never satisfied.

I thought he was extremely dodgy tonight but  he looked better in final stages when Bree went to left back and played further forward.

Just simply not good enough for us to not play for 90 minutes again, not looking forward to Saturday at all now.
