Talk about a game of two halves. I genuinely thought we'd go on and win by 4 or 5 at half time after some sumptuous, dominant football. We played with a real style that was just too good for Donny who were chasing shadows.
Second half we started like the game was won. An early concession put us on the back foot and we just collapsed like a bad souffle on Bake Off.
It was like the confidence which has been so gradually nurtured went in an instant. A swift second confirmed it and I was thinking we'll have to settle for a point.
A cheap penalty put the tin hat on it. I say it every week, but it was poor positioning from Husband that let the ball get to the wide man and then allowed the ball in. I really don't get his weekly inclusion.
Of course we should have had our own penalty at the death but it was too little too late by then. Three dropped points and hopefully a big lesson learned. No game involving us is ever won at half time.
Cup game this weekend. I'd expect a number of changes then a big game again next Tuesday. Onwards and upwards.
