First half rundown

Two teams playing football

Very quick game in heat

Goalkeeper looks quality fantastic top right save defiantly a goal otherwise.
Cracking signing.

Flint looks very solid,is going up for corners.


Williams doing a job at left back solid enough.

Jet looks like a cracking signing,some magic passes and runs through the middle.
Will hopefully have a good season.

Waggy looks useful has had a good start to his carear.


Winter looks a good signing,looks very skill full.

all in all a good start from the boys in red.

 

are you there Red Robin???

What formation are we playing?

 

3-5-2

 

And surprise surprise no mention of the invisible man

 

2nd half was a case of how many players got put on.

The lad with the strip of hair through his head looked pretty tidy.

Taylor looks a league 2 player at best-
The big concern was lack of shots on goal
one in the whole game,but the football was more about trying to retain the ball.

 

is that Ajala with the strip through his hair?

 

Sorry looks more and more like Baldock and Davies can't be bothered are they thinking they are too good for L1?

 

Yes so my son tells me, looked very lively

 

My assessment
Jordan Wynter looks quality as does Flint no nonsense defender that we have been craving.
Williams done well looked impressive
Wagstaff looked like he might progress into a tidy player, lucky he wasn't injured when he went crashing over the advertising boards.
Cracking save from Fielding even though I was thinking if he missed it we would of been treated to a fantastic goal.
Jet to me looked ok quick feet and some decent passes, but needs to shift some of that weight. judgement still out on him for me sorry
Joe Bryan to me just gets better could turn out to be important player for us, this season or next.
Didn't quite get the name of one of the players in the second half think it was number 24 looked well composed on the ball.
Stupid mistake by Loius to give them the goal.
Critism of the game was when mr useless came on and the team just didn't look composed because every move has to go through him.

Liam Kelly was captain and I don't need to assess him as you all know I rate him.

Top marks to the Rangers fans I wish we had that support. And also their number 6 nothing was getting passed him.

 

good to read that ROD. I know you said Wynter looked quality but could I get a bit more of an assessment? Out of all the signings he's the one I wanted to see play, Would he be starting against Bradford and what sort of game did SOD have him play

 

Imagin Elliott 4 years ago with good vision

You could see the Arsenal control about him. I would start him with Kelly straightaway on what I saw today.

 

A 19 year old marv who can pass.......


I know im getting old when im watching a player who is younger than me

 

I know when I reached that milestone 12 years ago when the whole team was younger than me

 

Wait til players younger than you start to retire!

 

Including yourself in that description?

 

Stick with it Shiny, it gets easier
Its when they start dieing of olde age it becomes scary

 

Not had that happen yet unless you include Players I watched as a sprout like Big John.

 

3 at the back was interesting - we played 3-5-2 and 3-4-3 during the first half

I like the look of Flint - good on the deck for a big lad too.

Amazed Wynter is only 19 - he looks like being a very good player

JET did some quality things - tired a bit, but was his first game (same applied to Baldock and Davies)

Wagstaff was tidy - maybe lacks a yard of pace?? Williams did ok.

Baldock was captain in the first half (not Kelly)

All in all - a bit of promise

 

Didn't Davies play against Ashton and Backwell? I'm sure he played the first half Baldock as usual was injured
