Not at all, we can't afford to get relegated.

I didn't see any lack of will or effort from the players today, a lack of confidence and some confusion at times, yes. Hopefully we will come to a formation and system of play that gets the best out of them. Can't help but feel we "dodged a bullet" today but we did dodge it.

Woodrow seemed to be playing very deep today, almost midfield at times, good for us in the circumstances.

It was about to get very ugly ....... and then we scored. Could that be the moment when things turned for the better.

Agreed.

He did well for the 2nd goal though.

Think he is told to stay high but as you say after a few minutes today you could tell it wasn't going to work and it could have been altered.

Exactly - Over to you coaching staff.

Not sure we have a policy of letting players "rot" in the u23s - Anything but IMO.

I have never seen so many occasions of midfield head tennis in a professional football game as I did today. There was one rally of at least 12 in the first half. Strange.

Have to have a target man for direct style football. Their 2 CHs today were absolute monsters !

Thanks.

Not sure it will be. there is no expectation on results or performance currently, just the 3 year rebuilding project. As many have said 1 point above the drop will be considered success and this group of players could manage themselves to that position.

Exactly my point, thank you.

O.K.

All about the first 5 minutes. They will see this as very winnable and will have a high pressing game right from the kick off, looking for nervousness and mistakes. New coaching set up with a week to work with the players this is the turning point.

Ask Kalas what he thinks of him.

"some"

He also had three quarters of his first choice eleven injured (medium to long term). Won 4 and drew 1 of the first 5 with his first team and then the Mawson and Weimann injuries against Boro were the beginning of an horrendously unlucky run with injuries.

Yes,

Is recovering from injury and is not yet fit to be considered for selection.

Yes your team is more likely.

Unless there is a "snaffoo" at the turnstile you will go straight in with no one paying any attention. Even if there is an issue can't think they will want to check your ID.

It's not my opinion by the way. I heard different to you.

This why NP has been so under whelming so far.
