Quigley was definitely offside IF he touched it but I'm not sure he did. It will be a miracle if they don't score if we can't keep the ball. Even a good defence and we have a very good defence now, can't survive under constant pressure. If we survive this season it will be by keeping plenty of clean sheets and, hopefully, getting the odd goal.

Brilliant defending but this is some pressure we’re under. We can’t take another 45 minutes of that without the net rippling, and if it does it’ll probably be in there a couple of times.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

We are not even challenging until they are in our defensive third. So more of the same this half.

Kay is going to get sent off if he keeps kicking the ball at goal after the whistle. Time for James before the inevitable.

Don’t commit too many forward Barrow. We can handle this. Frustrating them.

Quigley needs to be on their last defender ! The amount of times the ball ends up the pitch unchallenged is ridiculous
