In general terms I wouldn't wholly agree with this. Today Hartridge's distribution was nothing short of shocking.

A lot of poor passing by both sides today.

Thought we started slowly for the third home game running, the second Newport goal came when we were looking the most likely team to score next, a goal that knocked us back for the remainder of the first half.....the change of shape after equalising for the second time seemed to take the impetus out of our attacking play and the game ended in a draw that was probably a fair result...Dieng and Sweeney both had strong games....overall I think we’re still the elusive inch away from being a top side in this league.

Because I took off our two most attacking players and replaced them with defenders…
Totally agree
Could not understand taking Edwards off
Should of taken Collins off and replaced with Taylor
Thought it was negative and we did well yet again to get a draw
We are a nearly team at the moment we have good players but not gelling yet

Newport were poor and we really need to be winning these games. We had too many below par performances today. Brown had a great start to the season but I'm beginning to see why he's been hit and miss elsewhere. He needs to show more desire.

I could understand Taylor taking Edwards off. For me he's a bit too Randell Williams for my liking. One footed on the wrong side of the pitch and the ball to feet far too often. I would have liked to have seen Coley come on for him.
Sorry what I have seen at the moment Edwards is the better player
Coley will come good
Why not play both

Did I say he wasn't? But the comparisons are there to be drawn.
In a 4-4-2 I'd quite like the idea of both of them in the side along with Amond up front with Nombe. I know it might be seen as being a bit archaic but if it works, who cares?

Is that before or after the game?

If before, why was he playing?
