I went Franco, as I thought he was excellent and steady. Nothing he could do about the goal.
Scowen. So clever at this level. Plays the refs like a fiddle. Superb.
Scowen. Always Scowen.
Lubala also excellent.
Shout out to Lonwijk for his play at both ends, though.
Some excelllent performances in the first half from Potts, Lubala, Longwijk and Scowen. But went for Taf as he was immense throughout the 90 minutes.
I agree @Shev although Lubala had an excellent all action match, covering every blade of grass, and putting the penalty away with a plum.
There were 14 heroes out there today.
Long delay posting this because I had to go and check how many subs we used to finish second “paragraph” and got thoroughly distracted, not least by the Barnsley v Lincoln result.
Glad to see someone choose Taf. Thought he was absolutely excellent.
Aplomb.
Taf was absolutely immense. Headed out everything
Went for Bez, absolute handful today and that celebration was glorious.
Bez for me too. How long since a 'keeper won it @Shev?
Taf - a massive leader on the day.
Max has actually managed 5 wins this season. Well done to Ravs, though!
Or the inevitable wave of democracy, although he did his best
Taf for me, thought he was an absolute rock at the back. It was a much needed performance given he had an inexperienced keeper behind him and a new and untried partner alongside him.
i thought the shape was good today, moving from 4-2-3-1 to more of a 4-3-3, with Butcher and Scowen playing ahead of the deeper lying Potts.
It largely worked well and made us a bit harder to play through, particularly away from home. Will be interesting to see if Matt sticks with it.
TAF. That’s all
Lonwijk…did his job…and what a goal!
I just imagined you were saying "a plum" in an Irish accent.
Franco for me. Made some great saves, and looked so much more assured than last week.
The Pasta boys take 1st and 2nd.
He’s very rarely beaten in the air.
McCleary got my vote, he had their awful left back in knots, who later gave away the pen. A mention though for Taf who was outstanding, particularly aerially
Sure, tis mrs moicra that has the oirish accent.
She thinks yellow lines mean no parking and double yellow lines mean no parking at all at all.
Ravs for me. but I could just as easily given my vote to Tafs as they were both immense!
I went with Fran, thought he was very solid and a couple of great one on ones saves when they were through, made himself nice and big. Although Taff was great yesterday, I think if Fran hadn't of made one of those saves we'd have lost. So he gets my vote.
I went with Butcher as he did the clean up work without being noticed.
A real asset to our team
When GMac got subbed off, the whole stadium rose and gave him a standing ovation…what a player!
