Out of sight here. Defence untroubled, Harness only had to make one save. Clare and Dobson effective in midfield. But DJ constantly making the wrong decisions and Kirk offering no attacking threat. Kirk is a real puzzle. He does not have pace, cannot beat a defender going forward, missed the best chance of the game and does not cross the ball. What exactly is he supposed to be?
Yes, it's not a "proper" match, but this sort of result and performance must be a confidence boost to the players, which should help them in the league matches
I believe I'm right in saying that half a dozen of tonight's outfield players were in the side for our first three League games. None of those started on Saturday with only Kirk starting in both our last two games. Hopefully this bodes well in terms of getting a squad of 20 or so all fit and desperate to get in the first team.

Its also great for their match fitness...
If this game wasnt scheduled then we'd have two weeks between games - Am sure there will be a behind closed doors friendly between this game and the one against Lincoln, but its not quite the same

I know they were only goal & assist highlights but the video posted when we signed him showed him being very attacking, taking on defenders & cooling slotting home from all angles.

He’s supposed to be a threat who keeps getting into the right positions, one who is looking more dangerous with each game after needing a while to acclimatise to his new club. He’s interchanged really well with Purrington so far and looks like he needs to get back to believing in himself to show why Crewe rated him so highly.

League Cup... 1-game | 0-goals
EFL Trophy... 2-games | 9-goals
League... 11-games | 12-goals
They definitely need a quality CB to shore up their defence.. let's hope DE has signed up for us!
Must have signed his twin.
And in years to come 5,000 of our fans will say, "I wuz there".
