Coulson beaten far too easily for the first , although the second was a wonderful strike Brill didn't even move a hand to it ☹

Defenders standing off, no pressure on the ball and no one seemed to know who to pick up as the cross comes in. Brill rooted to the spot for the second again; are we just getting unlucky with worldie shots or is he not reacting in time?

I'd rather watch a rerun of Gilligan's Island.

So, so bad.

There’s literally no pressure on any of their players in the build up to the first goal. Brophy isn’t close enough to their right back initially, if he had have been he would have nicked the ball when he miscontrolled it, their centre half has as much time on the ball as he wants to pick a pass, Coulson gets done for pace on the outside (which is always a possibility), Marsh and Wright amble back leisurely, no communication between Ling, Marvin and Widdowson to work out who is marking who.

Second goal, the amount of space their player has to attack is ridiculous. Their is no one anywhere near to covering Brophy and the space inside of him. Brill let’s another one sail past him.

But why was Josh chasing a guy on the wing in the first place, he's a centre half.

Comical, our goal.

Oh well, there is always Saturday to come
