The 18 in the squad is made up of all of our fit senior players. If Marsh hadn't come in we would have had one of teh kids on the bench. Just saying.

Could be 4-3-3 but could just as easily be 4-4-2.

That worked well didn't it. At least we were defensively solid with a 5-3-2.

And scored no goals. We look just a ropey at the back with 5 so argument doesn't really stack up. If you score two at home and lead twice you should be winning that game. Can't legislate for sloppy errors like today.

Also had numerous good chances to kill that game. Have to do better upfront as the strikers had plenty of service out there today.

We have been defensively ropey with any formation.

Brophy at left back without a covering centre back, or a winger tracking back was catastrophic.

If anything the 5-3-2 would've been an option to hold onto the lead but as usual it's the CM we're losing the battles in. Why didn't Marsh get some minutes?
