very flat performance second half
Such a frustrating last half an hour. Yet again we've really struggled at home to break down a team who get men behind the ball and only started to create anything in injury time.

Huffed and puffed, I think we are really lost without JB.
Think GC needs to change this up abit…that was a Tisdale performance, apart from the goal absolutely no creativity whatsoever. White was poor…Nombe up there feeding off scraps in the graveyard shift.

Well we didn't manage to pull it back, in the end it was Charltons ability to finish that won it for them. Be easy to say that it was the absence of Jevani Brown that meant we had no way of turning possession into goals, trouble is, it's probably right.
Some good cameos from the new boys but ultimately disappointing.

I think we also really missed Josh Key, as apart from the assist for the goal, Jake Caprice struggled to create much going forward.

What is Raheem Harper about? When he did manage to occasionally keep possession he put his foot on it and slowed the game down, which is fine if you’re winning. I’ll be happy not to see to much more of him this season on the positive McDonald has a lovely touch, and can keep possession.

Hopefully McDonald is gonna be a bit of a Noble type player. That guy was class, kept it moving and hardly ever lost the ball

A very plodding performance in the second half.No variety in the corners,someone else must be able to take one other than White.Didnt use the left wing enough in the 2nd half.I think there will be a vast improvement once McDonald is up to full fitness,he looks good.Midfielders in the wrong roles at the moment.Having said that,there are signs that we have something to work on

Caprice had a dire game. Cost the us the second goal and killed any momentum we built up down the right hand side.

Lost count how many times he cut back.

Poor second half overall. A very stake performance. We never really got going.

When was the last time we scored from a corner? Must have had about 50 in the past couple of months…stick it in the mixer chaps
