And another clean sheet, if this lot are top then we have nothing to fear going forward.

 

Enjoyed that. We looked decent.

 

Good game. Good energy and worked hard on and off ball.

Unlucky with the Evans double post situation but without Hornby in first half, could well have been a different tale.

On that basis, Hornby MOTM

 

Does Rowe have to lead the line, as we saw today and when Rowe played against us for Oldham the other week he was all over dragging defenders with him rather than being static up top, listening to Trueman today it would not surprise me to see McAleny in Claret & Amber before then end of transfer window.

 

Certainly one the better ones I've seen in the lower leagues for a while.

 

I liked how he brought POC over to have a word as captain, when a few niggly fouls started to accrue. A bit of common sense and pragmatism, which you don't see often with refs. I thought he gave a couple of soft fouls and the moment in the second half where there were 3 obvious fouls inside about 10 secs that he let go was strange, but otherwise he was a good ref. Definitely one of the better ones.

 

I feel Canavan has been performing well at a higher level and AOC is a better right back than FCD (and personally I think Paudie has been the better of the two in recent games and this season overall), so I'd just be looking to put the best possible defence out. Add to that FCD has looked like our weakest link in our recent good performances, though it does seem to be early in games and he tends to grow in to them.

However, I have no qualms whatsoever if he keeps the same team for exactly the reasons you state

 

This lad will sort it

 

Rowe's first shot injures their keeper!

 

Excellent performance against a team who are top of the league who we have played twice since the dynamic duo have taken over and I think we have been better both times. Says a lot

 

Great TEAM work. Happy with a point and agree the commentary was fair.

 

Sorry don't agree mate

 

Not just defence, the whole team @Park bantam, how many times was Clarke or Evans tracking back. They're really playing for each other and it's a shame we can't be there to cheer them on becuase right now they're are really playing as a team and deserve a cheer.

 

I'm not saying either way, I'm just saying that the media is an important PR tool for clubs, especially during a transfer window. We're already in the market for a striker- hypothetically, if Novak's injury were a serious one then I could see why we'd downplay it, as it'd weekend our buying position.

 

Donaldson instead of Cooke?

Not for me.

 

Could be both if we go one up in the first five mins

 

Said Melania to Donald....

 

We are looking good, we need to inject some pace and creativity though. Evans off for Stevens is needed in my opinion.
