    Imagine being a full back and knowing you’ve got to play CBT that week!

    Oh dear that effort was a comedy of errors.

    CBT left their Full-Back for toast, gets into the area and slips leaving the ball behind him.
    Gets the ball back, and lays it to Stockley who forces a good save.
    Leaburn gets to the rebound by fires over, but was offside

    Almost 2-0, CBT with some good play in the box, Stockley unable to finish with a deflection for a corner

    Stickley has to score there.

    Another bit of good play from Leaburn to collect a long ball from Wollacott.

    Uses it to turn Norton (their FB), and go on a run, but his low ball to Stockley in the box results in a heavy touch.
    Heavy touch is putting it mildly, if he done it in the other box we'd call it a thumping clearance 
    Stockley unsuitable as a lone striker in a possession system?

    Who could have foreseen this.....

    Another poor touch from Stockers as McGrandles plays him in.

    Stockley's control is really letting him down here

    Oh dear Jayden… that pass was not at all hit hard, wasted the good work of McGrandles.

    He’s ruining really good build ups!

    McGrandles nice control, tried to set up Stockley on the edge of the box, but forgot Stockley's control is not his best attribute.. ;)

    At the moment I'd make Leaburn first choice, he's linking up so much better

    Stockley really doesn't suit this style.

    Stockley the weak link in this system.

    If this is the template for this season I will be well happy. Stockley the only player looking out of place. CBT is going to be a nightmare for other teams if we can play like this every week

    Goal from Swansea but offside.

    Sorry to say but Stockley is def the weak link in the front three with the ball on the turf,, and it shows up against class opposition, Leaburn, and CBT are different gravy by comparison...

    I'd be tempted to try out Leaburn down the centre for at least some of the second half...

    Yes stockley not great, sessengon not keen to use his left peg may become an issue. Being picky in saying that, O Connell looks a player.

    Maybe Stockley will go to Wednesday, I know they wanted him but only if we have someone lined up

    Morgan is showing some good touches and calm moves, loving his new role and it shows..

    Dont blame CBT for getting brown pants when he got out the way of the oncoming Goalkeeper there

    No point going for a risky 50/50 in a game like this

    Some nice calm playing out from the back a few minutes ago.

    They've only recently signed Michael Smith, so I doubt it. :wink:

    Last minute of first half and we have a corner, Morgan tries a floated ball,but straight to the keeper = 1-0 half time whistle, so far so good ..
