Wasn't on the sideline but could have been in the stand watching which he did last season for the Papa Johns games as well.

Not good enough, sadly.
Brown not good enough, sadly. Coming off his line with that scissors thing was not the way to go. And he's GK Coach?

Did you see his one on one save?

Nowhere near good enough and it wasn’t a particularly weak team.

Not the best of games from city but glimpses of the right things. I still like Rekeem but Kegs needs to have a bit more urgency for me. Sparkes did well, MJ fairly anonymous, Cox was decent without ever looking threatening.

No big deal, concentrate on the league.
You realise we have more pizza matches to play.

The main thing I took from this game was that none of our squad players are ready to compete with the first team.

MJ was poor. Cheick made a couple mistakes, and at blame for the second goal. Coley, not enough quality on the ball. Harper at fault for the first, and despite kegs goal he didn't show enough desire to influence the game for me.

Sparkes was easily the best player, and in reality the only positive from the game.

Cox sadly is not good enough, seems like another Seymour, runs around and gets nowhere. Maybe just maybe he needs a big CF to play off h'e's never going to win all those long balls thrown up.
Tactically inept tonight.
