@Shaun Rice - KR is getting good at these lucky wins!!!
@Marked Ox
R.E Eastwood with crosses. Think the reason he struggled was because of the presence of Akinfenwa. Big lad and will win 90% of the air meant Eastwood panicked everytime the ball went into the box. Whereas a normal striker it's a 50/50 with the centre back Akinfenwa's physicality makes him so dangerous.

Wyscumb played 2 upfront and in the first half it caused us problems bless with Akinfenwas backward headers and Mackial Smith behind collecting them and holding up the ball well, maybe KR might look at this style of play because it sure looked like it was working for Wyscumb.And it’s funny that we seem to score late winners when we play 2 up front, especially when KR said we can’t play like that.
Ignore it. He said the same thing about Coventry and will probably say it about every match until the the end of the season.Why will it?
Yes, wasn't very clear, was it?! I meant we were in Barry Island at the time

Would be a valid dig if it wasn't our left back scoring!!!And it’s funny that we seem to score late winners when we play 2 up front, especially when KR said we can’t play like that.
Don’t know why I said that think someone said there 25 was Mackial Smith and we were after him at one time which I believe Chippy was but I stand corrected it was SamuelHe’s good is Mackial Smith, even managed to get on for Notts County yesterday as well for the last 10 minutes! ?
Silly fouls? A lot were the dark arts By Wyscumb as that seemed to be the way they were hoping to scoreRead my comments about the game mate. Written before reading you post.
Lucky they weren’t able to make more of our poor performance for much of the first half.
Lucky they missed a penalty.
We gave the ball away, silly fouls, poor decision making. We couldn’t even muster a shot for 30 odd minutes! I think the goal was our first proper shot on target, I might be wrong.
Nothing lucky about the second half I thought we were excellent and KR got it spot on. I think we came out second half a much more confident side. Much better with our passing and movement.
KR made the substitutions at the right times and they worked. Graham especially.
I would be thinking that about our performance even if Ruffels hadn’t scored.
On KR personally I think his pre and post match comments were excellent today. Very professional and considerate.
If we were to cut him some slack, as I said, it would be for dealing with all the crap behind the scenes not for the football.
Why will it?
