    Had promising signs to build on

    Hoping Mamadou, MacGheehan and Lindsey are on it and Potts, Moncur and Jackson "have a rest".

    Yep but it was thr same story from the end of last season - we couldn't score a second goal when on top.

    It's the same story against Ipswich tbf. Not beaten them in the last 10 meetings, waste chance after chance every time and then let them spawn a couple in. Yet another team we don't beat no matter who steps onto the field for us.

    That's pretty much how I saw it. Should have been 3 or 4 up at half time. Start of second half no idea what happened but our defence looked like they had been supping Horlicks and suddenly we are 2-1 down. Even then we wasted plenty of chances to equalise. Not worried yet but we need to get some points soon, and win some home games. Forest our next opponents only scored 4 today away from home so hard to see us keeping a clean sheet

    We look good going forward cos that is out strength... but for all our decent build up, its all for nothing if you don't stick your chances away.. The game is about scoring more than the opposition right..

    Our defence is sub-championship standard..

    There are definitely promising signs but we need some leadership at the back. Players will get to know each other better and Hecky will work out which players fit. Could do with getting something out of the next two games though
