Apologies if this isn't meant to be its own thread, but I'd be interested to see how others read that game as I have some quite strong opinions on it. I better just mention now I missed our goal after slamming my laptop shut in a fit of rage in the 95th minute but I'll take it into account!
Stevens - 5. Didn't have loads to do, distribution was ok.
Long - 6. Steady, didn't do much wrong.
Moore - 6 A solid performance at the back. No frills.
Atkinson - 6. Solid but I wouldn't have minded seeing him attempt a couple more of his surging runs forward
Ruffels - 5.5. In the first half their wing back had him on toast. He didn't tackle or block the path of the player and just let him breeze into the area. Could have cost us more. However, he did much better in the second half. I love Ruffs but I think we might need a better left back to get promotion. A great lad to have in and around the squad and cover both the LB and midfield positions when needed. I missed the goal but if he did get the assist then well played Josh.
Brannagan - 6.5 Pretty neat and tidy I thought. Close to getting back to his best now?
Gorrin - 6. So much more effective when he doesn't get his early yellow card. Tidy, but not as good on the ball as Kelly IMO (Crucify me!)
Shodipo - 2. Not his day, won't give him a 1 as he kept trying things. Not sure about this player, there's talent in there, but can he do it regularly?
Lee - 6. I thought he was ineffective, and didn't win the freekicks he was clearly trying to, but for being the hero which saved the day he gets a 6.
Barker - 3. Not his day either. I can see there is a lot of talent there, but it didn't come off for him. Will be a Championship player one day minimum.
Taylor - 2. About as use as a glass hammer lately. Badly out of form. Doesn't offer enough as a lone front man at the moment.
Subs
Winnall - N/A. Feel a bit sorry for him.
Henry - 5. Not much to say here to be honest.
Agyei - 8 MOTM. Did more in his 20 minutes than Taylor has done in 3 matches. Their keeper should have been sent off if the referee wasn't an incompetent blind homer moron disgrace. He's a genuine threat down the middle. What exactly does this guy have to do to get starts??
Skyes - 5. Didn't notice him do much. I like him as a player though.
Forde - N/A
Referee - 0. Absolute dirge. If you agree it was a foul on Agyei its a red. You bottled it. The covering defenders were miles way. It was a tap in with Agyei's pace. A disgrace to football. Referees have no accountability at all. Useless. Shouldn't be allowed near a football pitch again. Get to the job centre Oldham.
