A real curate's egg today.
At times, we played really well. The boys have really improved and are frequently playing some good mature football. Our set pieces are working well. Jonny's goal kicks are getting longer, Johan's corners are excellent, we are using more of the pitch and we are making lots of chances.
However, we let ourselves down at times today and Stratton took advantage. We need to challenge for every ball especially around the box. No-one should be turning their backs on the ball or swinging legs aimlessly. We have shown in recent matches that we are better than that.
It was tough match today. Stratton were always going to work hard after Wed's result and with no substitutes we tired more quickly on a big pitch.
On the positive side, we created some good chances and Tom was unlucky to have his goal ruled offside. Johan's opening goal was the result of determination and Charlie deserved to get a goal, knocking in Johan's corner. We tried hard to get back into the match in the last 15 minutes.
Captain's MoM (chosen by Nick): Tom for his midfield passing and (disallowed) goal
Coaches' MoM: Charlie - gave 100% today and scored a goal
No training tomorrow - instead we have Highworth Town at home - meet at 6 for 6.30 k.o.
