Match Day Thread First ever League win against Rochdale?

Bloody typical, pop out for a bit of fresh air, and we bang in 2!

Bish enjoying a good season, and injury free, b....ger, thats torn it ha ha!

 

Go out again for ten minutes...

 

Go out for the season!

 

No way, Hampy, beginning to enjoy my footie once again!

 

Much better second half. Town showboating now.

 

Good, Downes coming on needs some game time to continue his re-hab!

 

Not his finest day already. Starting to think we have a problem there.

 

Flynn's emotions getting the better of him - his head in wrong place!

 

Rochdale are coming more and more into this. Let’s just get out of here with the clean sheet and points now please...

 

I dont believe we can leave a game in the last 10 Hampy - original idea!

 

Another good result, but lets wait til the bigger guns come at us!

Great to see the midfield score again.

Top of the League still!

 

Woohoo, another 2-0 win.

A decent game, lacked a bit of pace but you can see the patterns of play that the team has been working on. We're getting goals from midfield and the defence has been pretty solid. Ward has been a great bit of business, good defender, doesn't over extend himself or leave himself vulnerable and then adds intelligence in attack. He knows when to play it in first time, take on the man or cut it back and it has helped us create more chances.

Dozzell is pulling the strings in the middle, it's good to see him play this well regularly, Bishop and Nolan are playing well too. Hawkins did ok, good hold up play and a nice spin and shot that came off the post.

 

Thanks for great simple summary SD, you watched the Town win again!

 

I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Dozzell, as many on here may have noticed, but I’ve got to say that he’s really impressed me these past few weeks. He has seemed to have found a position on the pitch where his full range of passing is implemented correctly and is given trust and a run of games in the first team. With Downes looking set on forcing a move (somewhat understandably, arguably, to a Premier League club) and the likes of Skuse being too cautious to play there against weaker teams, I’m hoping we can tie Dozzell down to a longer contract.

Obviously harder teams await and we’ve had a pretty easy start to the season, on paper, so I hope we can maintain this form and avoid a collapse in form which blighted is last season.

 

Harsh for him but I compare him to his dad and he is nowhere near that level. Not even the best midfielder currently at the club. His passing is good but the whole side is passing well. Not sure what else he brings.

 

He's definitely a confidence player, and at the moment, while the team are doing well, he's full of it.
Will be interesting to see how he does once the cold nights kick in, and the bigger boys come to town, let's see if he's up for it then.
At the moment the three of them are complimenting each other, and its a good balance, but as ive just stated, the.games will start to get harder
