Well, the first five minutes were good...! Then once Hazel scored (superb finish, by the way) it all got incredibly sloppy. The best I can say is that we kept ourselves in the game and gave ourselves a decent shout of a point with Rowe's effort right at the death.
Again, though, no complaints - the gulf in class was pretty evident the longer the game went on and the ability to score half chances is what puts the likes of Hartlepool, Yeovil, FGR and the rest ahead of us. There's no shortage of effort and desire and all that other stuff, but ultimately we lack that ruthless ability to stick away the half chances teams like Hartlepool will give you. Mainly because the players that give you that edge are out of our price range.
Also, not naming names but now we're a few games in it's becoming painfully obvious a couple of the summer signings aren't up to the level, so hopefully we're hard at work behind the scenes working out the best way to shift them on and free up some budget for upgrades.
