If meteorologists aren't able to judge all weather conditions, how do you expect Timms to do so?
The only real positive from the first half was Marrs' performance. Despite the undesirable weather conditions, he looked like he wanted to be there. Whereas Hall spent most of the game on the floor, after being caught in possession far too many times. The front three spent some time half-heartedly chasing the long punts from defence and midfield - that were hoofed into the swirling wind, rather than a simple shout of 'time' followed by playing a five yard pass.
Brackley, to be fair, were organised and up for it in the first half; they were the better side. The wind had a huge impact on the game, anyone who disagrees must not have been there.
The second half was a completely different kettle of fish! Though unless Timms was injured, the decision to take him off was bizarre! There weren't enough men behind the ball in the first half, when the wind meant it was difficult to get out of our own half. There were large gaps which were exploited and the strikers were chasing attempted clearances rather than getting the ball to feet - I'm not sure if they've been told to wait for the ball to come to them or not, but I lost count of the times that, Miller in particular, was beaten to the ball by an opponent.
The fact our first goal, which was an own goal, went in so early on, coupled with the weather conditions set up a decent half of football (Turley was in no way to blame for the goal).
The second was a great run round the back by Newsh, and was finished well. There were countless chances created throughout the second half, but there was a lack of killer instinct at times. Sanders had very little impact on the game; I think he fetched the ball once?!
Brackley were stronger and more committed than us, they played to their strengths and took their chances. Though I don't think Andy Hessenthaler will have too much to report back - apart from Turley's red card, the save he made just prior to his dismissal secured Brackley all three points!
