Ascore: 5 AMB: 6.5 JONES: 6 Not at his best NESS: 7 very good considering he hasn't played for a while THOMAS: 8 this looks like his best position, hardly put a foot wrong T.WATSON: 5.5 DOBSON: 5.5 not great today BAKINSON: 7 looks good EDUN: 6 some good, some bad, plenty of energy T.CAMPBELL: 3 poor MAY: 7 did what he does C.CAMPBELL: 3.5 poor but at least looked like he was trying KANU: 7 tried hard L.WATSON: 6.5 ok Referee: 5.5 COVENTRY:n/a looks a class player FIORINI: n/a couple of nice touches
Ascore: 6 changed things about AMB: 6 some good saves JONES: 5.5 looked less confident today NESS: 6 THOMAS: 6.5 our best defender yesterday, played like he's got a point to make T.WATSON: 6 DOBSON: 6 BAKINSON: 7 like him, he faded a bit but had some urgency about him EDUN: 6 I was not sure what he was meant to be doing and not sure he was either T.CAMPBELL: 4 being generous, lost the ball almost every time he got it MAY: 7.5 C.CAMPBELL: 4.5 KANU: 7 battled well L.WATSON: 6.5 not as effective as we all think he is Referee: 5 meh COVENTRY:n/a FIORINI: n/a
Ascore: 1 - Mr Boring got it very wrong again in the first half, despite 2.5 days work on the training ground AMB: 7 - Didn't look comfortable but some good saves JONES: 5.5 - Struggled with their movement NESS: 5.5 - Better second half THOMAS: 6 - So limited but gives 100% every game T.WATSON: 4 - Both goals came from his man; nuff said DOBSON: 6 - Not his best game BAKINSON: 5.5 - Better second half when he moved EDUN: 4 - Loses the ball so many times... T.CAMPBELL: 3 - Played out of position and being ruined by the manager MAY: 6 - Came alive when he had a partner C.CAMPBELL: 5 - Worked hard but little impact KANU: 6.5 - Did OK L.WATSON: 6 - Got involved and did OK Referee: 8 - Did well though little to blow for
Ascore: 5 Tried something different first half but it didn't work. Tried something different second half and it was much better. It has been glaringly obvious to many that we should be playing two up front.
AMB: 7 The double save in the second half was great. Distribution still needs to be quicker and better. Had no chance with the goals. JONES: 5 Poor game by his standards NESS: 6 Decent game and back to form of last season THOMAS: 7 Best game for a long time, but playing in natural position helps. T.WATSON: 4 Tries hard but not good. He always seems to slow down our progress. He was at fault for second goal, but can't really blame him too much for struggling to get back after a rare burst forward. Someone should have been covering. DOBSON: 6 Very average by his standards, but still puts in a huge workload. BAKINSON: 6 Looks very promising. Surprisingly mobile for a big guy. EDUN: 5 Marginally better than T Watson, but by a small margin. T.CAMPBELL: 4 Out-muscled and never got into the game. His confidence needs rebuilding. I still think he has huge potential. MAY: 7 Another well taken goal and as usual, loads of effort. Good to have him back. C.CAMPBELL: 5 Never really got going. KANU: 7 A huge improvement when he came on. Worked really hard and unlucky not to score - great save by keeper. L.WATSON: 6 Improved things, but wasn't great.
Referee: 6 Seemed to give an awful lot to them, but generally I thought he did okay.
COVENTRY:n/a based on this cameo he looks the real deal. Very excited to see the impact he will have. FIORINI: n/a Clearly rusty but some good touches. I hope he can get match fit quickly.

Applescore 2. Terrible team selection/set up. Useless manager. Needs to go. Amb 6. Didn't make any real clangers, but not convinced. Not a QUALITY keeper Jones 5.5. Not playing so well the last 2 or three games. Not sure why. Ness 5.5. Not awful, but needs to progress Thomas 5.5. No too bad T Watson 6.5. Had the most difficult task in having to mark Mason Clarke ( to me their best player). Actually thought he did a reasonable job. Dobson 6. Think all the uncertainty is affecting his game Bakinson 6.5. Looked promising. Looked pretty tired from about 65 mins on. We all saw it. Should have come off before he did. Ring any bells Appleton Edun 4.5. People around me thought he played well. I didn't. Far too easily pushed off the ball. Has skill, but has he got the physicality? T Campbell 4. Poor. Totally devoid of confidence. Appleton should have had him on the bench to bring on when Boros legs were tiring May 7. Runs his socks off. Where would we be without him, and this bunch of clowns nearly didn't sign him! C Campbell 4. Similar to T. Campbell. Not strong enough. Would send back Kanu 6.5. Played well. Boro had much more to do when he came on L Watson 6. Has a footballing brain, but is a little bit lightweight. For me rather him than C. Campbell as one of the loan spaces Coventry 7. Looks a player Fiorini 5.5. Not much time, difficult to judge Ref 6. Not great, but far from the worst this season.
Ascore: 4 - set us very badly. Mitigated his negligence by making the changes at half time but, by then, we were chasing the game. How on earth did Appleton think that Alfie on his tod up front with two lightweight wingers would work ? AMB: 6.5 - couldn't do anything about the goals and made a fine double save in the second half JONES: 5.5 - not at his best and missed our best chance NESS: 6.5 - good to see him turning in a decent performance after looking so shaky earlier this season. Timely, too, given that Hector is out for 10 weeks THOMAS: 7 - our best defender on the day and did well against their right winger, Poku, who is a very tricky customer T.WATSON: 5 - anaemic. Neither he or Edun are good enough defensively DOBSON: 5.5 - not his best game but an excellent ball to Kanu in the build up to our goal BAKINSON: 7 - a pretty impressive debut. Good physicality and actually talks to his teammates during the game - a rare thing in this side EDUN: 6 - like the rest of the team, very poor in the first half, when he didn't even attempt to get to the byline. Better in the second but his lack of physicality means he is too easily eased off the ball T.CAMPBELL: 3.5 - the lad needs to be taken out of the firing line MAY: 7 - came to life when he was given a partner in the second half and turned in a typically industrious performance. C.CAMPBELL: 3.5 - not good enough KANU: 6.5 - made a big difference with his speed and movement L.WATSON: 6 - blows hot and cold but a big improvement on what went before Referee: 7 - not bad COVENTRY:n/a - he looks like a player FIORINI: n/a
