Well that was a good second half.
My top 5:
Ulmeira - Good ,strong centre forward, worked hard for the team also.
Wynter Super dependable
Nemane - got great qualities (Man City / David Silva 3rd team esque) got braver with his ball playing skill in second half
Olaf - looks a bloody handful
Danny Wright - could have great partnerships with the younger runners around him.
Defence is a work in progress.

Good four quids worth.

Zonal marking at fault for both Hemel goals.

£4.00 well spent, Moxey looks good and I hope Olaf gets a good run this season he has got class, as for the commentary, do they realise there is a game taking place? I don't think they do, more like listening to All Our Yesterdays than a football match being played.

Encouraging performances from the new signings Wright, Umerah and Kerr. Wright looks fitter and sharper than I remember him from years ago. Obviously a makeshift team so can't judge too much. Got better as it went on after a poor first half. Slough did well but Warren needs to come in to organise the defence. Poor to concede from two set pieces.

I was impressed by Danny Wright, Josh Umerah and young Olaf.
Connor and Dean Moxey saw plenty of the ball as did Nemane.
We certainly missed Jake Andrews as our corners were poor.
With all the experience Gary has I still do not understand why we are so predictable at set pieces.
Are there any statisticians on this Forum who know how many goals we scored last season from corners and free kicks?
I see Jamie Reid was on the bench at Mansfield and never got on in 0-0 draw.

I would prefer we have results like this rather than have won 5-0. nelson will now get man managed by Johnson, but this is what pre season is about. Playing in front of no fans must have been strange equally. Good start against an opposition that was up for it, and only a league below. Work in progress but that was always going to be the answer. COYY
