Good riddance Ditchley. Appletons tangerine army.

For me the big positive yesterday was the style of football in that first half. We played with an intensity that was missing last season. We were positive in possession and pressing when not. Ok we ran out of steam, but the foundations are there and the newbies all contributed.

I admit that one swallow don't make a summer, but a great start.

Ironically, I think that was our downfall second half. As others have said, it's a young squad and you could tell that legs had gone second half. Maybe Appleton could have changed things like for like a bit earlier - certainly bringing Dougall on calmed things down and I think I would have risked the lad from Wolves for a bit longer and had Virtue and Carey off - both, for me, were really ineffective.
