My niece kidnapped me after the game, so I've only just got back in. Started brightly, then spent what must have been close to an hour in our own half. I thought our best spell of the game came in the period before Mayling's colossal brainfart, when we looked like we were about to get back in the game at any moment. And that was a joke of a penalty award to rub salt in.
We need new defenders, there's no getting away from that. And I very much question our 4-1-4-1 formation, which Ward seems wedded to. We look stale, nothing new to offer. And as with the men's game, you have to invest just to stand still. We haven't, and now we're going backwards at a fair old rate of knots.
