Wiggins 7.5
Stewart 7
Cousins 6.5
Jackson 6.5
Stephens 7
Kermorgant 6
church 6.5

Alnwick - 7 Not at fault for either goals. Distribution looked better.
Wilson - 5 Looked clumsy at times but had no one in front of him to play off.
Morrision - 6 Looked better than at Reading, winning more balls in the air.
Dervite - 7 Solid.
Wiggins - 8 MOM Links up very well with Stewart, made some excellent runs and crucial tackles.
Stewart - 7.5 Great goal and assist. Beat his man most times comfortably.
Cousins - 6 Looked a bit light weight.
Jackson - 6.5 Hard working but unlucky with sending off.
Stephens 6 - Start to get nervous when he has the ball around our box. Worked hard second half with a lot of chasing back.
Kermorgant 6 - Spent most of the first half on the floor. Got better second half, still not match fit.
church 6 - Lots of the running as usual. What does Sordell have to do to get a chance?

hughes n/a
solly n/a nice to see him back
wood n/a

Alnwick - 7
Wilson - 6 Expect better after recent form
Morrision - 7
Dervite - 7.5 - bought the ball out from the back well
Wiggins - 9 Different class
Stewart - 8 great goal, indifferent for most of the game
Cousins - 8 Stephens always puts him in awkward positions but does well
Jackson - 7
Stephens - 6 Another one of those Dale Stephens games
Kermorgant - 7.5 came deep and tried to create things. Midfield didnt help.
church - 7.5 Non-stop but looks tired. Needs a break.

Alnwick - 7.5
Wilson - 6.5
Morrison - 7
Dervite - 7
Wiggins - 7.5
Stewart - 7.5
Cousins - 6.5
Jackson - 6
Stephens - 6
Kermorgant - 5
church - 5.5

Alnwick -7: very sound - good handling of crosses throughout, which is bound to infuse confidence into the back four. He also and held onto a few awkward low shots, with forwards running in looking for any rebound
Wilson - 6: ok - didn't really get forward to any effect
Morrision - 6: steady enough defensively but his distribution is poor and the long punts upfield nearly always concede possession
Dervite - 7: won a lot of headers and moved the ball well out of defence
Wiggins - 9:MOM. Back to his best - tenacious, speedy and bags of energy. Saved an almost certain goal in the second half with a superb sliding tackle
Stewart - 8: responsible for our attacking best moments
Cousins - 7: another very competent and responsible performance. Does everything very well and covers an enormous amount of ground for us; he also covers that ground to good and purposeful effect
Jackson - 6: a danger in the opposition area and chalked up another goal, but not sure he can really cover enough ground in the engine room
Stephens - 6: a quieter game than of late
Kermorgant - 5.5: a few nice touches but didn't contribute enough. I hope it is lack of match sharpness and that he is not developing prima donna tendencies
church - 5.5: one decent effort in the second half but too easily dispossessed and didn't really threaten the opposition

Alnwick 8. First time i've seen him. Impressed
Wilson 6.5. Did ok. As said didn't get forward enough/at all
Morrision 7.5. Thought he had a good game. After about an hour the whole team started to " lump it forward"
Dervite. Looked ok. Couldn't see penalty from where I was
Wiggins. 8.5 Getting back to his best
Stewart 8. Played well. Dangerous, Goal and assist. Also a great 1st half shot that brought an amazing save from their keeper
Cousins 7.5. Did holding job well.
Jackson 7. Not a bad game. Poor tackle. Can't complain about Red
Stephens 8. Can't aggee with others. Shows how we see games differently, Cultured, class, good distribution and made plenty of tackles
Kermorgant 6. No real threat. Not at his best. Poor service. Too many balls hit in the air to him. Yeovil centre half looked about 6 ft 8
church 6 . Tried. Doesn't look strong enough. Unlucky with overhead kick. If Sordell can't get in ahead of this guy, then he does have problems.

Powell 4. Wrong tactics. Totally in control for an hour, but we needed a third goal. Yeovil got lucky eith og, and we nearly ended ip losing. 2 points lost. Should have won from 2-0 up.

Alnwick 8 good game
Wilson 6 indifferent
Morrision 7 unlucky with oh
Dervite 5 clumsy pen

It wasn't Dervite who conceded the penalty. It was Andy Hughes.

Whoops clumsy!

Alnwick 8 - thought he was excellent, good handling, good distribution, which included an assist for goal 1
Wilson 6
Morrison 6.5
Dervite 7
Wiggins 7.5
Stewart 8.5 - a frustrating player but was excellent today - including a cracking goal and a great save brought from their keeper
Cousins 7
Jackson 6.5
Stephens 6.5
Kermorgant 6 - convinced he's not fit - but we have no alternative
Church 6

Dumb post eh Redman! Just trying to give an insight to people who weren't there. Think Powell got tatics wrong and we started playing too deep. Not just in hindsight, said it at the time. Sorry if you're not open to debate/conjecture on what is after all a football forum site

Alnwick 7
Wilson 6
Morrision 6
Dervite 6
Wiggins 7
Stewart 6 Should have been subbed early in the second half. Did ok first half but failed to do any thing constructive in 2nd half. Did not gt past the defenders once in the second half or make it to the bye line.
Cousins 7
Jackson 5
Stephens 6
Kermorgant 6
church 6
Given they threw a two nil lead away I am being generous with the points.

Why use the "players" marks to give a rather one sided view - certainly not an insight. These wrong tactics had got us a 2-0 lead, weathered the inevitable Yeovil storm after half time when they made 2 attacking changes and given us some chances to get that 3rd goal. Do you give Powell any marks for that. How about also some credit for him seeing something in the first half which made him switch wings Stewart and Jackson. The first goal was Stewart cutting in from the left (his changed position). The second was Stewart on the left wing crossing to Jackson coming in from the right. When Cousins went off injured I did not hear one person think that bringing on Hughes was the wrong move.
