Despite the "hammerings" we have been dealt, I don't see any heads dropping in the team and while it must be tough for the young lads to get their debuts in these circumstances, playing at ER with our fans singing until the end must be fantastic.

Shame about that 4th goal, we had a bit of fight for a while around the time we scored. I felt quite sorry for some of the younger players - what an environment to have to step into, but I thought they all performed at least creditably. I particularly liked the way Drameh at R Back didn’t let it all phase him - because he had some difficult moments but he dug in and made some decent contributions. Gelhardt took a difficult game with thin pickings on the chin and kept at it, causing problems right to the end…but yeah, our player of the year so far has to be Meslier. If he goes into the Physio’s room it will be for shellshock. Onwards with MB.
