Just felt like a pre-season kick about. The two centre-backs were very dominant, but I think their distribution left a lot to be desired, and Queens got in behind too many times. They're fine when the ball's just getting launched, though...
I don't think I've seen McMann have a worse game for us, and Gillespie was equally as bad. Skondras has to come in on Tuesday.
The midfield were so, so sloppy. They did well marking Gogic out the game which meant the midfield was bypassed due to long balls, but even when we did play through it, no one had that killer ball - everything was a nearly ball.
Longridge was completely ineffectual. What a difference when Temps came on, although he did also lack a final ball. Bingham won a few flick ons and what not, but he isn't a striker or even a footballer. It doesn't help when he doesn't get any service, though.
One of the only positives is Boyd's goal was an absolute screamer. He won't hit a ball better all season. One of the sweetest strikes you're likely to see.
