No Keegan

Strange one that, he was in the running for MoM Tuesday and no indication of injury.  Might be resting him ready for Tuesday but then you'd expect him to be on the bench.

Tbh (and not that I being home to Mr. Negative), we're are going to lose a game here and there. However, we've kind of earned the odd defeat, such has been the run of form. There's no need for us to throw our toys out of the pram, though I might go kick the dog.*

Plenty of time to get back into this, though conceding early again is annoying.

I don't think we're a mess (though I don't know the nature of the goal because I am supposed to be working. *cough* Like any team, we're going to have lapses every now and again. And we're going to have off days.*

*Too early to say that's what's going to happen today.

I think the pitch conditions have thrown us a little, as well as not having Keegs in that central spot. Plenty of time yet for us tortoises.

Lovin' the optimism, Hoola. Reckon if we could nick a goal before the break we might just get something out of this. Thing is, we were coming into the game, so it's a bit of a sucker punch.

Not a bit of it. Slightly envious of the situation the Cherries find themselves in (who wouldn't be), but I am pretty positive these days. In all honesty, there's not a lot to be glum about re: DRFC - it's what it is. Today, though, we might have to file away as an off day.

Agreed, we have to come out of the traps early on. And that's not unusual after they've been subjected to a dose of PD at half-time. If Walsall score we'll barely even care about this result...

I was unnecessarily concerned Lipsy!  :scarf:

Does sound like we're doing okay, been unlucky maybe? Here's a chance for Dickov to shine. From what I hear a good move would be to instill a little more direct play to deal with the pitch conditions.

I suspect we are missing him. This sounds like the kind of game where his style of short safe passing would excell.
