    De Givigney yet again, ball-watching/lazy, never got goalside, got nowhere near old Gregory, barely made an effort to challenge. So reminiscent of so many from last season. The constant in our appalling defence.

    Cosgrove's work rate is poor for me, just walks away from their defenders and let's them knock it abart

    Thought Gregory was Earl's man. MDG made less mistakes than Earl and Roberts so far IMO.

    If you're willing to write off the season based on the first 45 minutes of the first game, you're a moron.

    Equally if we were winning 2-1 and you were willing to completely forget about last season and commend us for the title charge, you're also a moron.

    45 minutes of the first game. Please give the lads time.

    He’ll be the one to make way when Pines is fit you’d suspect. I rate him higher than Earl - though Earl being left footed will keep him in.

    Watters has pace, Cosgrove is getting nothing from the ref.

    But we are playing at home to a newly promoted club…. Not the best to be overrun and be 2 down after 20 mins….

    Has anybody?

    Plenty of grumbles at the performance and fair enough.

    Haven’t seen any writing the team off though - have I missed anything? (Genuinely - I’m at the game, haven’t read it all).

    A handful? For the ref having to give a constant stream of freekicks against him maybe?

    As long as they’re all Bobby Hassell and not Chris Lumsdon that’s ok

    When it showed Connell, I thought, never realised he was so ginger. Then I noticed everyone was ginger.
