Can we just pick the best players and give them 5 or 6 games together.

That does not include SBarra, Lawlor, Senior, Close,  McGrath!!!
Totally agree with this

Well I made it to the ground for the start of the second half

I wish I hadn’t have bothered

Was just going to post did you get lucky and stayed stuck on the motorway

Middleton and Gibson need to swap wings. Pointless playing Middleton if on the right.

Pointless playing him on either wing if we don't have anybody in the box!

Playing wingers that way around therefore sending them on the outside of full backs would just isolate the lone striker even more. And Billy as much as he works hard, doesn’t have the attributes to get out of isolation or stretch the opposition running towards goal in behind himself.

Having Gibson as the only right footed winger was a big error in the summer recruitment. I’d have thought it would have been obvious to have two of each, given the wide forwards are usually our main threat.

I'd play 442 if those played in that system

Sure I heard or read somewhere that their second goal was offside. Just watching the game again, it wasn’t.

The player obstruction the keepers view, interfering with play looked offside

We’ve got a defender outside the back post playing them all on.

Not sure about that, looks like Senior just stepped up before the lad shot

Any recommendations for a local pint prior to the game?
Hi, best I've found in past is The Birkbeck on Langthorne Road E11 4HL  at back of Leyton tube station. Turn left as you come out and take first left back on yourself after about 50 yards.  Its where the Heinekin advert was filmed.

Thanks for the recommendation. Probably the highlight of the day.
