    If we are
    If we are 3-0 up at half time, I'll start to worry.

    Correct decision. It's almost a pressure free game for Stuart now. Let's hope they can put another solid performance in.

    Might just be me but I think we're looking a bit more in control this half. Still not actually getting any chances though.

    Yet SMc gave him another contract and decided to keep Guthrie when an offer was on the table from another club.

    Donaldson, Novak, Pritchard are all division four players for me. Sometimes play OK, sometimes poor, have the odd good game.

    When we have more than half the team made up of players like that it is no surprise that performances are up and down.

    Pretty average game and think a draw just about fair. Great strike for their goal but very sloppy to allow Nurse to have the freedom of the pitch to create the chance and O'Donnell should've got closer to it.

    Never really got any fluidity to our passing but credit goes to Wallsall for not allowing us to. They were very lucky to not get someone sent off (why was that?) and but for a great save from their keeper we could've come away with 3 points.

    I just wish we had more attacking options but this is what we're stuck with. Our attacks have such hesitancy when it needs someone to pull the trigger with that instinct to shoot. Perhaps Evans back in will give us more teeth.

    Not for me either. But I thought their lad should’ve seen red as last man shortly after.

    Yeah I’d agree. We had lots of 6s and 7s out of 10. Not much in it, but if either side deserved the win it was us. Again though, the frustration is that 2 decent attacking players centrally and out wide would make a huge difference.

    Individually, Donaldson and Novak are decent enough target men. They’ll hold the ball, link play and chip in with 10-15 goals. But together, they’re too similar as a pair to really work. Guthrie simply isn’t good enough and we need to see more of Samuels, but I’d have to think that McCall believes he’s not ready to feature regularly- which makes me question why we signed him. Or rather, why we didn’t add more.
