    I do work a boring job tbf.

    But it's not a criticism, it's the opposite. I think everyone associated with the club deserve huge credit for how we've handled our first year back in League One.

    Baffling. Nailed on free kick and yellow card

    Oh give up. If they don’t put at least some fight up at home they may as well pack up.

    Can you not ask Delia to do you a bit of running commentary?

    Defended very well so far

    My only concern so far is keeping Neufville on the pitch. One rash mistimed challenge on Sissoko and he walks

    Thinking to what happened at there place earlier this season they where far better 1st half but we came after them the 2nd cannot see the same happening i think it will be more or less the same 2nd half.

    I’m waiting to hear about Faithful’s career progression to date. ;) I bet he takes holidays in Echo Beach, either that or Cambodia.

    Tremendous effort so far. They've had loads of possession but rarely threatened. Keep it up lads. This scoreline will do.

    I really dont get your view here. They may well turn us over but they are hardly battering us!
    We are the away team so the onus is on them to make the play. I'd like to see us do more in the final third but so far we've done more than OK.

    Sissoko is a real handful. Quality player. Neufville has his hands full and can't really get forward

    Their having plenty of possession in their own. half, they are going to be more adventurous second half, were at the other end to the Sarcevic effort it looked poor from our end, thank goodness it wasn't Weatley one on ones are so easy ?.

    Neufville and Lapslie off for me, Humphrys and Powell, go back to the 4231. Sarce and Laps just dont have the legs to stretch them out wide, Jackson and Humphrys wide way well do.

    No they're not battering us, but they're clearly a better team, technically. But you'd expect them to be, they've been at a higher level with higher budgets for a while. We're grafting, I just struggle to see where the goals are going to come from. Hopefully we can dig it out. I don't think there'll be much in it over the two legs, I just think they'll edge it.
