Reserves v Cray. saturday 27th

[michael]

Worthy of a specific thread i thought.

 

Good luck today-hopefully a great performance from all the players under the additional watchful eyes of messrs Ashby and Smith.

 

A chance to make an impression

1-0 to the GATE

good win but not great to watch, no one really shone.

Got to agree with DFG here. Not great to watch, unlike many of those on show last season.

Shame because I was really looking forward to those that impressed me so much last season.

Have to agree with that.

Sounds as though the Reserves were on a hiding to nothing here!

 

They didn't "concede the nil", got three points but nobody liked it.

I did.

So did I, a win is a win, and I thought we controlled vast periods of the game, maybe not exciting but very effective IMO.

You are becoming more like MM every day

[BlueGate Alan]

I did think that after I posted it Jim

[michael]

I would'nt wish that upon anybody

[TSO]

To be fair many on show against Cray were 1st teamers, that didn't have a game that day. So hopefully the lads will be back next game.

The resreves seem to be fragmented at the moment, using trialists and first team players whilst some of those from last year can only get into a Gen Sport side (battling win last Sunday). I guess it`s needs must. There seemed to something promising with the reserves last season, MFC need something for the fringe players.

From afar and the 'outside',it only looks like a short term issue;as the 'regular fixtures and reserve season gets fully into gear.

Was'nt saturday simply because first team did not have a game-and to be fair-one of reasons for reserves is to give fringe first teamers a chance-and more importantly-because of the important U18 game on the sunday which many regular reserve players also played in.

 

To be fair, the reserve side seems to be doing its job-already this season Kenny Pratt has 'emerged' and possibly Chris Ronbinson.

 

I may be wrong-but from a distance-it looks ok to me.
