Just shows. Dropping him what a difference. We have eleven players giving it all. It going to bite Maynard on the ass I think. Well done del,happy fans in the ground so far. Playing great attacking football with wingers.
Bit dodgy in replacing Skuse with Pitman, but hey - why not try to score some more. If we'd have scored a third instead of conceding we'd have been above Watford. But that's football... 3 points is all that matters.
We'll take the 3 points and move on to the next game and keep it going. Will Nicky exit stage left this week?
Yep Del brought pitman and stead on during the game and left Maynard on bench. Important three points,two tough games coming up Reading and Leeds.
we got crissy wood, we got crissy wood, **** off maynard **** off maynard we got crissy wood........ was the song sang in the eastend, i didnt join in as hes been a good player for us, but im glad he was dropped and the team really looked balanced today, nyatanga had a bit of a wobble a few times but someone was there to clear it up. P.S whats louis trying to grow
Still like to see us grab a classy centre back. I think Foster is going to be a cracking signing though
Hopefully with Nicky not play meant someone behind closed doors has come in for him. As soon as I heard the team sheet I knew we would win as its the first time we actually had a BALANCED team as actually had two wide players for once with a 4-2-3-1 with Kilkenny playing an advanced role who did get forward and had a good day. Foster had a few iffy moments but played well overall. The only one who didn't have a good game was nyatanga who made mistakes and switched off which lead to their goal. Apart from more goals could not ask for more in the first half. The second half was like watching paint dry and had to wait until their goal for us to wake up.
Great result, but Nyatanga is a liability and getting a replacement should be Del's top aim even when Fonts is fit again. We're now hot on the heels of Watford, Portsmouth and Peterborough but there's still a lot of hard work to be done, and results to grind out before we're safe. COYR !!!!!!!!
I also thought it was a good decision to drop maynard and it did look to have had an effect on the team. Much more positive, however I do not agree with the fans in the Atyeo who were shouting w****r at Maynard as he left the field. Us football fans are fickle enough as it is without abusing players and it can't have been that long ago that they would have been praising him. Ok so it's time he went and I will now be glad to see the back of him but please cut the abuse.
I think the feeling was that Wilson should have come on to replace him or at least go 3-5-2. Pearson goin to left back wasn't the best choice
