    If we can get the right players in, in the next few days we could have an interesting season, still think we need a striker who knows where the goal is and some creativity in midfield and some defenders in case of injuries or a congested run of games

    Lopata was involved in the defeat at Chesterfield but was literally thrown in after arriving the day earlier. I won't count that <laugh>

    Reckon we could be up to about 16th in the league after that performance, and you have to admit that goal deserved to win the game

    He’s definitely formed a great partnership with Kilgour in central defence. Sparkes has been excellent too and Southam-Hales is decent.

    We certainly need to score more goals but our first choice defence has been superb the past few games.

    we do have a lack of depth in case of injuries or a loss of form in our defence at present, and if we are looking for someone to score goals a couple of the Tottenham kids looked useful in the midweek

    Man Utd 97th minute penalty won the game for them today

    I was pleased to see Kilgour resigned and he looks stronger and tougher now though a bit older than when he left.

    Would like to see Ollie Clarke back to play along side Conteh which would let McEachran play further forward
