So many positives today including Haynes showing more understanding of his position and desire to stick his foot in, generally defending better . Reid looks like he has been told to relax and plays with more freedom, which makes him decent at this level. Thomas little work horse showed lovely touched for his goal and the decision to make the right run is a player learning his trade. Stokes we have really missed him, good leader dies simple things really well.and just defends when he needs to no frills but effective. DKE heart bigger than a Rhino and balls as big as an elephant, loves his desire, great lad, could do really well in the game. Bigi, my mom, never stopped working, broke lots up and 2 keys in winning the game his goal which put them on the back foot and his clearance off the line in last minute. He also gave a passionate interview after the game which shows he is a thoughtful lad who cares.
As for loosing the midfield we did at times but in games you will and against a team full of confidence it was bound to happen. But games are not won on possession anymore, its what you do with it, not how long you have it and we played better without the ball then they did and took our chances. We set up today to play without the ball and Robins played a blinder in getting the players to buy into it.
Only negative today is all mentioned for the reasons mentioned could be gone in the summer including Robins if things are not sorted off the field.
