A pretty terrible game between two sides who I felt were quite obviously in the bottom quarter. Two bald blokes fighting over a comb would be a pretty fair description, I’d say. However, today was very much a case of win at all costs, and none of us should really grumble at that, especially given how incredibly patched up the whole thing was. The job was done, by hook or by crook, and for that I and everyone else has to be pleased. We got what we set out to get, and what we needed, which was three points and a place outside of the red for the first time this season.
I have to say, though, without wanting to seem too negative in victory, that we have to get shot of Smith and keep him away from the pitch wherever possible until we can. I have no idea what he’s meant to be. He isn’t a speed merchant, a poacher, a link up man, a target man, isn’t a tricky skillster... I genuinely don’t know what he actually does. Bradbury showed how raw and in need of development he is, but he was definitely no worse than Smith, and at least he’s our player who can only improve over time. I think we’ve all seen enough of the guy now, sadly.
Still, we won. Two big league games in three days coming up soon...
