Got to say refs still poor based on the chap we had today, for both teams.
Yeah definitely made the game worse in the first half.

As I and others have been saying, Bossie and Freck cannot do the Woodyard role or cover the ground he could for a whole game. O'Connor won't be able to either. I think we need a high intensity/energy midfielder in there. Maybe young Ellis can do it but if not we may need another signing.Yeah that wasn't great but we got the goal with our one outstanding chance and Vickers kept them out. The last one on one felt like a nailed on goal, I don't understand how one ball over the top caught us out so much.
My main reservation about the system is not the defensive issues (I think we can iron them out as we get used to it) but having freck and bostwick as a two in midfield. Felt outmatched and they had so much ground to cover, Bozzy was knackered at the end I think. Woodyard would work in that system dare I say it. Mccartan so far forward that it's more of a 3-4-1-2.

Woking away 2years ago! 3-1!Not sure when we won away on the opening day last?
Cardiff away in 1991 but struggling after that.
Our first win at sixfields too
In an EFL game mate might have been Preston in 1995 don't think there has been one since?Woking away 2years ago! 3-1!
Shrewsbury 1-0 in 2005/06?In an EFL game mate might have been Preston in 1995 don't think there has been one since?
1st game of season- 3 points. For today that is all that matters
We were battled hard in very hot weather- Bossie played 9-0 minutes in his first full competitive match since injury but looked out on his a*se by the end.
Defensively we looked a little fragile today- Toffolo looked off the pace and Waterfall/Wharton/Wilson had too many balls over their heads- only Vickers was defiant (even if his distribution remains poor)
Didn't create too much through midfield today but the team are still gelling and 3 points in 3 points
However, they will have been playing to a game plan which with be different next weekend (for the 1st home game)
Away end was noisy today and I think the players/management appreciated the support!
