Really pleased and buoyed by today 14:15 - Aug 17 with 925 views | jasondozzell | Positives everywhere you looked. Really good result considering we are still building. Back to a good, fast aggressive start with an aggressive press. Lost control in the second stage of the first half, midfield an issue, but regrouped at HT. Excellent throughout second half. Deserved to win the game. Big positives: Philogene looked good. Great workrate. Great delivery. Will only get better too. I thought Matusiwa is starting to get to grips with the league. Did some very good things. Leif back to his marauding best. Hirsty held the ball up so well. Constant threat. Johnson good. Dara and Greaves dealt with everything. Szmods caused trouble for them all game. So unlucky not to score. Jens purred when he came on. All this when we have Akpom and other signings coming in. I thought we really saw KM's identity and the team's identity from old again today. Saints will be there or there abouts. It's all about getting that control back in midfield. Taylor did some good things but Matusiwa and Jens should give us that control again. |  | | |  |

Really pleased and buoyed by today on 14:47 - Aug 17 with 604 views | duke_maiden | Agree entirely. Philogene will be a key player for us if fit. If we can get Clarke/Ogbene going on the right and bring in another player to support Philogene we should be good in attack( as long as Azon is coming). Get in another midfielder similar in style to Matusiwa and someone to cover for Leif and we are there with the squad I would say. Lots of positives and looking forward to the season ahead to be honest. |  | |  |
Really pleased and buoyed by today on 14:47 - Aug 17 with 605 views | _clive_baker_ | Yeah that was decent enough, I thought we created the better chances on balance, but a draw probably a fair result. Circumstances haven’t been ideal, a few more incomings inevitable and Cajuste & Akpom to get up to speed, no doubt we’ll improve on that performance and Saints will too, but that was a step on from last week. Need to start turning draws to wins but I think that’ll come against lesser opposition. |  | |  |

Really pleased and buoyed by today on 14:50 - Aug 17 with 557 views | NthQldITFC | Davis looked a class above everyone else on the pitch today. He's coming inside often now with his runs to leave the space out wide for Philogene, and he looks so in control. Those touches past his marker towards the end of the game particularly were fabulous. Utter class. And defensively totally solid too. |  |

Not really, missed a tackle for the goal. Thought he was no better or worse than Most of the team |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Only a handful... Don't understand what people expect. Us to run over Saints 3-0 at home when we're rebuilding the squad and developing relationships all over the pitch? I haven't seen KM's.comments yet but I am sure he will be pleased. Entertaining second half in the sunshine with us clearly the better side. Some people have forgotten where we've come from. |  | |  |

100% People seem to want to overlook that we're coming off taking beatings every week for the past year and presume every area of the team will suddenly click into a fluent all conquering side brimming with confidence. Today was a decent step towards that. |  | |  |

Exactly that. We had a really tough start and have come through it well so far. Everything needs time but the signs are there that we are finding our rhythm. Onwards! |  | |  |
Really pleased and buoyed by today on 15:49 - Aug 17 with 123 views | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | Better and plenty more to come but you've overhyped that somewhat. We beat 75% of the division at home with that kind of performance though I'd imagine. |  |
