I couldn't go today but I did watch on TTV which doesn't always give the truest reflection of the game.
I didn't think we were that good.
Grimmy, Eky and Keogh all did their job.
I'd hope we don't start the season with Connolly and Apter as FBs but when we get Gabriel and Hubby the back four looks reasonably solid.
Mid-field is the problem. I think I would have Connolly ahead of Dougall as the holding mid-fielder. Despite other complimentary voices I was disappointed with Keshi and Sonny. Not sure about the new boy yet but it's still an area where we are short.
The front 3 in the 1st half didn't look they'd score before the January transfer window. Gary is not a loan striker in a front 3. He's strictly a 4-4-2 player. I'll accept that Bowler did OK because everyone else said so despite being at fault for their 2 goals. CJ just wasn't at the races although again I accept he was asked to play deep to help Rob Apter out.
So no idea how we solve the lack of goals unless we can play 4-3-4.
But please please please let Rob Apter play in his correct position.
