Football can really get the blood flowing, and Saturday was incredible. It was looking like yet another one of those games where we huffed and puffed but just could not score. What is frustrating is that it took what should have been a sending off to get the team going.
The final 10 minutes (inc injury time) was helter skelter, and saw two Fryatt goals, and with just seconds left we were in the lead. I could have run back to the car, the adrenaline was really flowing.
So to the team review (assisted by Lizsara)
Henderson – 6 – Looked a bit nervous on his return, but generally had an assured game
Hobbs – 4 – Agreement that he really looks out of his depth at this level. He managed to crock 2 of the opposition, but his heading and positioning was shocking
Berner – (Sub 75) – 6 – Good overlapping and we looked a better team in 3-4-3 formation
Tunchev – 7 – Won every header, and looked assured at the back
Kisnorbo – 6 – A couple of dodge moments, but is forming a good partnership with Tunchev
Mattock – 7 – Flying overlapping full back, with some great crosses
Gradel – 2 – Rubbish, over confident with the ball at his feet, and cowardly in the tackle.
Adams – (Sub 63) – Was the first catalyst to the 2nd half improvement, needs to take on his man a bit more, but generally solid
Oakley – 6 – Some strong tackles, but also some poor tackles
King – 1 – We now know why he is on the pitch, it is to make Gradel and Hobbs look good.
Dyer – 5 – Looks good, but seemed to have lost his speed, some poor passes, not his best game
Fryatt – 8 – 83 minutes of nothing then, scored the two important goals (which were from his only two chances)
Howard – 5 – Won lots of headers, unfortunately he never found one of his own players
Hayles – (Sub 66) – 6 – Pulled the defenders about which created space for Fryatt.
Saturday evening was a good evening, although we went through 5 bottles, which resulted in Drips being a bit sick (little weight).
