A great night at GP despite the conditions, late KO time and understandable no shows. When we play like this we are a joy to watch, and still we can play better. The back line looks more solid since the addition of the excellent Mepham, who dominated Hogan and what a prospect. Our midfield clicked and passed round Villa's with pace and purpose about everything they did, Sawyers, Canos, Woods, Josh & Flo excelled and we pressed hard all over. Throw Vibe on a hot steak into the mix and 2-1 flattered them a bit. That said we had a couple of iffy moments including a goal line scramble that was imminently avoidable. So that's us on a respectable 34 points at the turn, if we're being critical it could have been so many more and in truth only Wolves have looked a level above us. Frustrating but who cares, we do our thing, sell players, bring in new talent and consistently upset the odds against the entitled so called elite. Honestly GP should be full every week because these are golden days and we are almost always worth a watch, unlike many other sides in the division. Highlight of the night was seeing Judge back in the side, and with Marcondes to come things could get very interesting depending on the next few results and the transfer window. My hope is that we can keep picking up big points and not have to sell anyone, call me naive, and the trip to Wolves next week seems huge, imagine if we nicked something there? Keep an eye on potential moves elsewhere involving Tarkowski and Mawson, huge sell on potential if they switch clubs in Jan.
All in all a very good start to the holiday period, be nice to finally overcome Wednesday at GP on Sat, I'll be there and am optimistic for the rest of the season, and no meltdowns if we do sell someone, they know what they are doing.
Happy new year to all.
