Rule 1 of defending, don't play square balls across the 18 yard box!

 

[hulloutpost]

Couple of let offs

 

[sedgleyimp]

First mistake by Roughan but it's been well covered

 

[NottyImp]

Careless, there!

 

[Scotimp]

A shambles at the back at times.

 

[Jules]

Wow, their goalkeeper is shit.

 

[Stevie_imp]

HT 2-0. Guess who’s going to be chewing a wasp ️️️️

Message to their keeper - Rheady isn't on closing down now.

 

[NottyImp]

Good half, well-played lads. Keep it up!

 

[Dreaming of McAuley]

Jackson got his partner out of jail there

Yep did well, interesting that nobody chastised him. He acknowledged it and we all moved on

 

[sedgleyimp]

Good first half without hitting the top gears

 

[Jules]

OK, so, 2 up at the break. Edun could have been sent off, but the referee didn't produce the red. Following that, we have been by far the better team and deserve to be ahead.

 

[hulloutpost]

Well that was a lively half.

 

[clanford]

Great first half. Need to be wary of any tactic change by FGR but there’s plenty more goals in this game.

 

[Eweimps]

Well played imps. Good attacking performance going forward and should have it wrapped up. Less so at the back, almost let them in through unforced errors. Need the next goal and home and dry

 

[hulloutpost]

should be 5 or 6 up!

Possibly 6 - 3

Good team work. A bollocking could cause a young head to drop. Instead he’s learnt and onto the next challenge.

 

[Luke Imp]

How's Gotts looking in his preferred midfield position, albeit against FGR and not Pompey quality players?

A lot more comfortable. He's basically sweeping up any open spaces across the middle, side to side. Playing, dare I say it a bit like the Woodyard role.

Excellent first half for Scully and Anderson, stunning strike from Grant.

Felt we looked vulnerable from Corners, Roughan needs to get a challenge in on his man,who often seems to be peeling off to the back post and is being aimed at by the taker.
