First game I have been able to watch united for a while due to working Saturdays and was pleasantly surprised at the performance before the game I would’ve snapped your hand off with a point especially after seeing spennymoor tearing us apart earlier in the season. But walked away wondering how we didn’t win the game.
Thought we just about edged the first half not many real clear cut chances and second half how we didn’t score I will never know. The three players I would do my utmost to build the team around next year hemmings, thommo and abbot all missing guilt edge chances. A mixture of good keeping and poor finishing, hemmings cut inside and tried to place it rather than hitting it as hard as he could tipped over and thommo’s cut back anywhere else and it’s a goal and Abbott’s rebound which any of the 2 united players next to him could’ve had a touch and placed it in but we panicked and snatched at it.
Defence pretty much dealt with everything relatively comfortably, midfield managed to settle but Clifton you could tell looked like he had missed a lot of football and beesley looks so short of confidence.
As for Reece Thompson every time I see him play I just wonder why he’s with us, unbelievable attitude and work rate and has the ability to back it up.
Much credit must go to Craig and his team for turning round such an awfully assembled side especially mid season to a very outside chance of a play off side
