BUT I have no defence for that. That was atrocious, right from the word go. It was as if they knew they were beaten before kick-off. Absolutely shocking. Right from the goalkeeper's kicking to the front two, we were shocking. Hassell and Reid did okay, Heckingbottom did alright (although obviously not that well, his man scored twice) and I thought Richards worked hard with no service. The rest...awful. The substitutions...bizarre. Colgan 4 Hassell 6 Reid 6 Carbon 4 Heckingbottom 5 Shuker 5 Burns 5 Kay 3 Howard 4 Hayes 4 Richards 5 Ugh. I can't believe how bad that was. Against a side that were there for the taking.
Shocking performance. No excuse. I caanot believe that there was no flair or effort in front of over 2 thousand fans and against a poor side, thank God we don't play them every week, my heart can't stand it!
