My Sunday positive rambling

With just a little bit of luck we could have had the game sewed up by half time but for a Gordon Banksesque performance from the keeper.

We kept last years League top scorer at bay

New number 4 a great addition and for me easily MOTM

On to Mr Smith’s patch with a quick turnaround

Agreed that Josh Smile was excellent.
However, can someone explain to me why the lad, Holmes, was given a paltry 6 or 7 minutes to show his obvious class when our strike force (that's an oxymoron if ever I saw one) was totally ineffectual?
He's on loan for ONE month - why was he kept on the bench for 85 minutes?
He showed more in his few minutes than those who shall remain nameless did for all the time that they were on the pitch.

Thought we looked loads better yesterday - crucially there was a balance to the team with people in their right positions and the addition of Smile gave us more physicality in the middle.

Fin Holmes looks of the calibre required (if not the height) and will plug the gap for the next month at least. If he plays.
