Opening Home Game vs Cambridge United Aug 3rd

Not quite can’t string two passes together then! It’s as I thought nice play in the first two thirds of the pitch, but dreadful when it counted in front of goal.

 

Saw it described as academy football the other day and it felt like it at times.

Nice passing when it’s safe but not much by way of chances created

 

There was a lot of garbage hoofball last season, which is fine if you get results but we didn’t. Looks like he wants to change our style of play as well as philosophy, I’m fine with that but it’ll take time.

 

Yeah without a doubt. Some maybe guilty of still being in pre season mode

 

I think McCartan sums it up well in today’s interview in the T&A. These teams are no respecters of reputation it’s about grinding out results with effective football not trying to be fancy dans

 

It is and we should have known that before the game. Calderwood has always done that all his career.

It shouldn’t have been a shock to us what they would do. Get into Grimsby early on Saturday.

 

For the ones who seem to like the stats, Gibson made the most successful tackles out of every game in the whole of league two with 7.

Anderson the second most with 5 successful tackles.

 

They swarmed them first half and we gave Cambridge no room, getting the ball back at will. Both me and my mate commented at half time if we’d be able to keep that intensity up, unfortunately we couldn’t. Hopefully the team will continue to up fitness levels.

 

It seems that the Cambridge player sent off on Saturday isn't so keen on our St. John's Ambulance volunteers, or at least he isn't bothered if they get wet.
Hope he or Cambridge are invoiced for the damage.
