James 6.5. Some decent corners and throw ins mixed in with some sloppy passes and an error for their goal.
Cooper. 8. Joint MOM. Had a cracking game nearly scored as well. Not bad for his first league game
Beccles. 7.5. Had the collywobbles lately. Not today. Won all his headers and should have scored from a corner.
Archibald. 6.5. Doesn’t seem as comfortable playing wing back and struggled to get going.
Graham 7.5 Gorgeous cross for Piggotts goal. Worked hard.
Pratley. 7.5. We have missed having Darren in the engine room.
El Miz. 7. Never stopped running and some long bursting dribbles through the middle of the park.
Ruel. 8. Gets an extra 2 marks for the goal. I was thinking with a few minutes to go how he must be protected by the prince of darkness to still be on the pitch and then he does that.
Moncor. 6. Looked knackered when he was taking off. A few glimpses but not enough.
Piggott. 8. Joint MOM. Great goal and worked his socks off.

Subs. 6

Wellens. 9. Gets a 9 for keeping Ruel on the pitch for 90 mins despite him being completely anonymous. RW loves him and why not when he does that. We matched up formations and they couldn’t cope.

Exeter. 5. Missing some key players but we’re pretty poor.

Ref. 8. Very good.

F***ing idiots!!

Copper was everywhere. Very impressive.

El Miz is a stunningly good player, Cooper was fantastic, young Turns might not get his place back now, Pigott had his best game for us, Graham is classy, and Ruel showed what he is capable of in added on time

Absolutely no sympathy for the Grecians
having a depleted squad you can only
beats what put infront of you …
Remember going a few years ago in the
Becchiti era and getting hammered 5-0
with a depleted squad as the first teamers
hadn’t been paid ..
And was constantly reminded on the way
out the ground that we’d been worse side
seen at St James’s Park by the home fans ..
They didn’t seem to bothered when I reminded
them that they’d beaten a bunch of 16
years old ..
What goes around comes around ..
