Re: the Gas man cometh

The thing that impressed me about the performance last night was the fact that, for once, the whole team seemed "up for it" and we weren't carrying old and overweight passengers. Having said that, we still lack ideas going forward and it always seems difficult to see where a goal is going to come from.
The back four was much improved - I've criticised Rocky in the past, but he showed last night what a valuable team member he is. Leam and Phil at full back seems to be the right pairing and Mauro certainly didn't let us down.
I do still worry about the keeper, however. He isn't really positive in his command of the area - maybe just inexperienced. He is, however, a very promising young player and needs to be encouraged, As I've said elsewhere, his shot-stopping is first-class.
The rest of the team put in a much better performance. I was particularly impressed with Shaun Whalley when he came on. Why couldn't he have given a determined showing like that on Saturday. Perhaps he feels happier with Leam behind him rather than Jammie - but then again, who wouldn't!?
Overall, then, an great improvement on Saturday, but there's still a fair way to go to safety.so keep it up lads
