It shows how good we are (if that makes sense) that we are awful tonight, have spotted the opposition a two goal lead, and yet it should already be 2-2 before HT!
They are a decent enough outfit on their home ground, we've had enough chances to suggest we can get something here if we can improve. Not too many enhanced reputations so far but still early.
Could have said that about the majority of the team on Saturday. When you're barely playing it's hardly a surprise either. Nonetheless, he is a far more mobile midfielder than Leahy, better tackler, better in the air, less impetuous and was integral to our form last season from the moment he signed.
Butcher is not more mobile than Leahy. He is on the bench - like he has been all season in league games - for a reason. We miss Scowen. Leahy is a good leader but does not show for possession enough. Far too passive in build up play.
That Kone stealing from Fred chance just looks worse and worse, not only robs Fred, but doesn't give himself any chance with a weird right foot stretched poke at it. Going left footed would have been better.
Oh well, hopefully we forget it after a strong 2nd half.
Balls into dangerous areas in and around our 6 yard box have been our undoing. Possibly missing Jack Grimmer’s aerial presence. They have found a way to play around us as well. Think Leahy compliments Harvie well covering when Harvie ventures forward. All to play for. COYB!
Integral last season straight away after being out of favour at Plymouth, but done nothing of any note at all this season and looked very leggy when he has played.
Leahy streets above tbh although not at his best, Bakinson probably ahead too. Morley, Josh and Cam way clear as best 3. Just hope they can get us going tonight.
Leahy has always reminded me of Stefan Oakes. Great standing on the spot and when given time to play a ball but not the most dynamic. Still time for him to smack one in.
People will overlook Morley’s pass there. Obviously the assist and the shot are outstanding, but don’t overlook Morley’s diagonal there. And he got the assist for our first. What a player. Get in!

This is sloppy
Bloody hell - that drum. Condolences to anyone on the away terrace tonight.

It's so tinpot
Far too many players looking too rusty. Crazy this is the most in form professional team in the country.

Let’s hope Matt Bloomfield sorts it out at half-time.
That first half was a huge drop from the standards we’ve set since September.
Oh and @Shev is right. That is one hell of a Josh Scowen shaped hole in our midfield.

Barkinson would be the better option if we were to take Leahy off, but is incredibly inconsistent himself.

Not only do we need Scowen back, but we need Sadlier for the rotation. It's easy to forget just how unplayable he was before the injury.
Very sloppy half, look really rusty. Bakingson for Leahy, Udoh for Mcleary if things don't improve after the break.

The left winger is causing massive problems for us too. Oh to be a manager
I assume we're all wearing our 'will settle for a draw' pants at this stage?
‘More mobile’. Well, it’s an opinion I suppose.
Much better, calmer start. Still overplaying it into the box though

Not just yet. If we score before 70 we'll win this.
Beautiful!
What a goal.
There we go, much better
Throws pants in bin
(Not for the first time)
What a goal that is.
YESSS!!
2-2
Now let's win this.
Get in
