Browne was never MOTM. Gave the ball away too cheaply on a few occasions and didn’t really do that much throughout the game. He did deliver a couple of dead balls into the box, but again didn’t do a great deal.Much better today. Christ if we had even another month with Manning we wouldn't be in this mess, the difference in performance has been night and day from the previous manager.
Either Browne or Brown MOTM for me, although McGuane also had a decent game. I'd still like him to be more positive though, there's too many three yard passes between the centre backs for me.
Hopefully Moore isn't too bad but if he misses out it might force us into a wingback formation which would be no bad thing. Fleming when he came on made a fantastic block and also had a great run that nearly led to something. Also means we don't play wingers so can bin off Murphy and Wildschut who were both awful today and contributed nothing, they could have both been off at half time with no complaints.
Also Eastwood was brilliant in the second half after an incredibly shaky opening, much more commanding from crosses and the save from the header was too drawer.
Results have gone against us elsewhere today but I've said since Manning came in we'll be safe and I stand by it, very confident that we'll be clear before the final game of the season despite the mess he was left.
Re; Manning, I’ll hold my thoughts at the moment, so won’t just join the sheep just yet.
