honestly our lads played right through athletic all the first half, doubt they will ever get an easier game.
cannot base too much from it but cirkin looked a bit more 'up for it' for most of the game, nice assist and goal, dan neil did what we all hope he will, he hovered around picking up the ball and playing the pass, always being available, no trying to rush it just a nice solid job and onien was onien, never really pushed but swept up most of what he needed.
one final thing, i really want to see blondy get a good game where he can show what he has in his locker, had no option with the goal but handled the little that came his way quite comfortable, couple of decent kicks out and lots of strong throws but not really tested by shots.
