Watching on Eir. Can hear the "programmes 3 quid" guy above the crowd noise.
We're playing much better than usual cup match.
 



Played well so far. Lots of faffing about in the opposition box but minimal shots. Leon and K Freeman have both had efforts turned over the bar.

Some good performances from Osborn, Robinson and L Freeman. Rav looks composed too.

Rodwell looks decent. Knows our shape, good passer of the ball most of the time.

Unfortunately Verrips has had to make just the one intervention really, and he got kicked in the head for it. Good starting position and alright kicking, doesn't move around a the time like Henderson does though so he looks like he's waiting for a bus haha..

He is massive and his hands are huge.

Hopefully he's alright, looked nasty. No blood from what I could see but it was a big collision .

Hendo on. Dealing with their breaks pretty comfortably.
 
Live on Ladbrokes as well
Need another goal then relax,
Freeman bossing midfield and pick of the bunch, I expect ravel and Robinson to prove that they have long term premiership potential by standing out in the second half to date very half arsed
 
Half time report:

Verrips - Kicking awful. Being kicked, accomplished! His reactions are slow (there was a ball over the top which he was late setting off for, Jags cleared but he would have been nowhere near it). I thought his positioning for the stop wasn't great either. Does not exactly look assured but I guess nervous
Osborn - Looks panicky and lacking composure. Some good stuff but caught out of position on more than one occasion
K Freeman - Started well going forward, albeit his final ball was horrendous. Zero interest in getting back.
Bryan - Like a Hollywood pass. Positioning dreadful and composure even worse
Jag - Looks a bit laboured but ok
Rodwell - Considering he's new, ok. Looked a bit too eager and then not really eager enough
Besic - World class saving tackle. Playing just infront on the back 3 and sticking to his task well. Best player for me, so far.
L Freeman - Again, looks panicky when he has the ball. Good cross for the goal but had lots of time. Doesn't seem confident enough to back himself
R Morrison - Is he on the pitch? Apart from two Hollywood corners to no one, seen very little
Leon - Ditto. Not had a great deal of service but not making runs
Robsinon - Good finish, albeit lucky bounce of his chest(ish). Again, not done a great deal and not seeing many run

Overall - I'm glad Flyde look awestruck. On a few occasions they've all too easily caused chaos with balls between CBs and WBs.
 
Bit disjointed Clarke doesn't look bothered freeman in midfield Rodwell and osbornand besic look like they could slot straight into the side
 
I'm at the match, I think people are being pretty generous here. No zip to us at all. Osborn, Luke Freeman, Besic and Rodwell all fine but I think Ravel may well be my least favourite footballer ever.

Class challenge from Besic

Class challenge from Besic

Agree, i think we have been so flat and predictable. Disagree about Rav, he just needs game time. Hasnt been bad but nothing special, having said that no one has stood out so far.
 
Much as last year in that difficult to praise/grumble as so many changes. Don't think that many would be a great concern if coming into the first team. Would like to see Ravel in the first team if we had injuries.
 
Besic and Rodwell look as though they could step straight into first team the rest prove we are very exposed
 
Keiron Freeman has unfortunately been quite poor.

I think we've been alright though, maybe I'm being generous and using Barnet and Sunderland as a frame of reference.

Leon's just caramelised the onion bag.

2-0
 
Rav with a disallowed goal then a nice through ball for freeman whos rebound (of the post) fell to clarke to tap in
 



Think that was a Kean Bryan cock up, ends up with Hendo getting lobbed.

We're getting balls in but no-one is on the end of them.

Think we should get Leon an ovation and put Bill on.
 
Job done. Only truly bad things from that are the injury to Verrips (no cover if Moore still injured), and the polite applause for Mark Yeates, a player that deserves none.
 
Well do to those that went, I couldn’t be arsed to pay to watch the reserves going through the motions again! That was shit.
 
Only gone and bloody won.

Some decent performances in the context of our second XI against Fylde, Like Freeman, Robinson, Osborn, but have to say K Freeman has put in a performance that would be lucky to get him a league one club.

Feel like Morrison was showing that he can play with a bit more positional discipline and less rash tackles, but sort of made him a bit pointless.
 
Our first team would have beat them comfortable but we're through
 
So out of all of the fringe players who's going Clarke . Bryan raval k freeman imo on loan or perms
 



Probably won't get a mention but I thought Jags was good.

Freeman, Osborn and besic put in some good work.

K Freeman good going forward as usual.

Only disappointed with Bryan and Robinson really.
