After Hartlepool (H) VNL - 30/10/2018 (1-0)
We certainly made hard work of the second half against 10 men!
However, while not clapping happily, I think we did better than people are saying. To me, the loss of their centre back just before half time had little effect. Because Pyke was so ineffective (being kind here), they were able to comfortably switch from 4-4-2 to 3-4-2 and so they were comfortably able to keep the pressure on. No excuse though for adopting a defensive attitude once we got the lead.
