    Ballard has his hands full today. His performance will go a long way toward deciding this.

    Refs aren’t much better here then! Blatant pushes on Stewart ignored!

    Its amazing the difference in the match a decent ref makes,i am enjoying this match , league 1 cannot compare, there is too much leg chopping and fouling there, here we are flowing lovely and will get stronger with more game time well impressed

    Play like this all season and I’ll be happy. Could easily be two up.

    Whatever happens today, what happened last time in this division won’t happen this. These players work too hard and care too much.

    proud of this performance so far

    Agreed about the ref (and the rest) he's got everything spot on I'd say. Hopefully it's what the standard will be.

    Played well there. Good pressing and shape when we dont have it. Embleton playing great, so is Clarke. Neil getting on the ball and getting us going forward. Gooch very good defensively and great ball in. Evans and Pritchard not quite at their best so far, need Evans certainly to step up a bit.

    Great first half from Prichard, fingers crossed for the same second half

    Happy with that good to see that we look at home a league up and against one of the best teams in the league. If we press like this every game and I'm sure Neil won't have it any other way it'll be a successful season.

    Could do with a bit more care in possession at times, opening day nerves probably. Played some great stuff too.

    Funny how we all see things differently, I thought Pritchard was excellent first half

    Gooch is playing as well as I’ve seen him. Looks so up for it.

    Clarke and Pritchard all playing well. Think Patterson looks comfortable and confident which is great to see. Looks like a proper keeper now.

    The others are all playing well. No bad performer out there at the mo. Have seen a few suggesting Evans the weak link and they might be right, but he’s not exactly playing badly
