MacG: 6 - seemed slightly more confident and had been clearly told to come for the ball as his team mates made a big fuss of him twice when he did so Clare: 6.5 - terrible sliced clearance late on almost let them in but not too bad otherwise Lavelle: 8 - played well Purrington: 7.5 - good game Dobson: 6.5 - drifted in and out , disappeared at times. Matthews: 7 - solid Gilbey: 8.5 - good first half, nice goal, faded as the game went on Fraser: 8 - did well, we suffered when he went off B-T: 9 MOM made the goal and was prepared to run at them and shoot from distance Stockley: 8 - bulled around a lot to no great effect Washington: 8 - not stop running performance all game but needs to cut out silly fouls Lee: 3.5 - extra mark for his Tony Watt antics but otherwise poor Referee: 7 - mostly good Opposition: 7 - looked like a poor side who may well go down
Pearce: n/a - seemed an odd substitution, luckily he didn’t have much to do
MacG: 6 - Claimed a ball in the box like a real keeper. Distributions wank.
Clare: 7 - Back to how he first looked at CB.
Lavelle: 7 - Like him a lot, will grow into the club I feel.
Purrington: 6 - Nothing stood out, and as was out of position gets a 6.
Dobson: 6.5 - Lacking a bit last night but still does a lot for the team.
Matthews: 6 - Played fairly well
Gilbey: 8 - The running is back and didn't hide behind the oppo players for the second half. Must of had more shots alone than the whole team in the 3 games prior.
Fraser: 7.5 - Can see what he brings, amazing what happens when you don't lump the ball over his head
B-T: 8.5 - Best player on the pitch by far, direct.
Stockley: 6 - Still getting up to speed.
Washington: 6 - Still getting up to speed (but still ran himself into the ground, machine)
Lee: 5 - If football was about running into and kicking the ball into the opposition players he'd be great. It isn't though. He isn't though.
MacG: 6, Did nothing wrong tonight Clare: 5, Below par Lavelle: 8, Our best player at the back Purrington: 6, Average Dobson: 5, Tried but not at his best Matthews: 7, Decent Gilbey: 7, Kept trying Fraser: 7, Missed him when he went off B-T: 7, Helped us dominate the first 45 Stockley: 5, He's been out a long time and is still off the pace Washington: 7, Missed his running Lee: 5, And that's being kind Referee: 6 Ok Opposition, Poor, tried to frustrate but once they conceded it was back to long ball.
Lavelle didn’t win a single challenged header all night!
MacG: 6 - came for a couple of crosses. Slow to release the ball. Needs to build up his confidence. Clare: 7 Lavelle: 6 - Oliver troubled him, especially in the air. Purrington: 6.5 Dobson: 7 - a couple of errors but he reads danger very well. Matthews: 6.5 Gilbey: 7.5 - well after several appalling performances we get to see what Gilbs can do when given the room. helps having washington ahead of him. Fraser: 6.5 - wanted the ball alot. need more from him with his attacking play. worked well with BT on the wing. B-T: 7 - Just like how he played against Gillingham before, a real threat. Tired in the second half. Only worry with our formation is against a side who also has a threat on their wing how long can he sustain running back to defend and then going forward on an attacking run? Stockley: 7 - works hard. Need him not only for his forward play but for his leadership and for his defensive work. Washington: 7 - Runs. A LOT. wish we could supply him with some decent forward balls rather than getting him to run for lofted balls into the wide positions. Lee: 5 Referee: 7 Opposition: 3
MacG: 7 much better Clare: 6.5 gives the ball away a bit Lavelle: 6.5 his level Purrington: 6.5 his level Dobson: 7 worked and passed well Matthews: 6.5 his level Gilbey: 7.5 all action Fraser: 7 neat and tidy B-T: 8 pace caused them all sorts of problems Stockley: 7 worked hard Washington: 7 worked hard Lee: 6.5 ok Referee: 6.5 Opposition: 5.5
May have to swap from the covered end to the west stand next year. The old eyesight is a bit dodge, and can hardly make out the players if they’re up the south stand end.
MacG: 6 I arrived 10mins late, so missed the 1st min throw on "flap", but thought he was pretty composed and distributed well Clare: 6 lots of energy and a brilliant challenge in the 2nd half, although flagged offside Lavelle: 5 knocks the ball around well, but got beaten in the air a lot. Not convinced yet. Purrington: 6 did a job Dobson: 7 was instrumental in switching play from wing to wing which wore Gills down eventually Matthews: 6 pretty solid Gilbey: 7 benefitted from the ball sticking up front and exploited the gaps Stockley and Washington created. Looked up for it for a change Fraser: 6 not overly impressed so far, but like the way he's constantly on the move and demanding the ball. More to come I'm sure B-T: 8 MOTM was a real menace. Great to have him back Stockley: 7 worked his nuts off Washington: 7 ditto Lee: 4 he's had some stormers this season, but yesterday wasn't one of them! Thanks but no thanks Referee: 6 average, not awful. not helped the ACS lino who was completely inept Opposition: 1 useless. I've given them a point just for the sheer ridiculousness of a fan throwing a smoke bomb onto the pitch to celebrate their first shot on goal. What was that all about?
