Re: Reaction vs Dag and Red
Thoughts - we were pretty poor first half - it was turning into another borefest.
Quite simply the game changed with the double substitution.
Extremely disappointed with the anonymous grant again - and my Tranmere friends are spot on - Stockton unfortunately resembles a Rhyl beach donkey.
Off they both went to be replaced by a double injection of intensity, hard running and pace.
Oswell not in the 16 man squad - any explanation ? he looked very lively when he came on last home match with excellent positioning and good touches.
Tollitt looked very good and great to see him starting and running hard at the opposition and taking them on - just what we need.
Defence was hardly troubled all match - did Lainton make a save ?
we should have won by far more than one goal - Akil Wright had 3 if not 4 opportunities that looked harder to miss than score yet fluffed the lot.
Finally it was fantastic to see the Tech End lower section full of kids - the looks on some of the kids faces when the Tech End started singing with the drum at 2.50 pm was a picture - sure many had never been in a football ground before - hopefully we have captured a few long term and they will keep coming back now, especially as they had a birds eye view so close to the action - the club need to repeat this ASAP.
