KETTERING COMMENTARY

[Charles Webster]

Seems like the powers that be have decided that we CAN do commentary of Sunday's game against Kettering. It will be the LISTEN LIVE link on the BBC Radio Kent website. Now I need to work out how to juggle the full Sunday roast while holding a microphone in one hand and a pen in the other. With an oi oi savaloy and pip pip! Lord C.

 

PS Brilliant last night. Murray still around, just not available last night.

[Jeff]

It certainly was. Why was he unavailable?

[Hempstead Gaz]

Murray, or Hand or better still, both ought to be playing in Sunday.

We already all agree that we look a lot better when we pass the ball on the deck and keep the route 1 stuff to the minimum. Murray and Hand both look to pass the ball accurately and keep possession.

With Murray sitting deep, both Ricketts and Opinel were also able to drop short and wide ready to collect throws from Lance, which is a tactic we have rarely seen this season.

Until Purcell came on last night, we still lacked proper shape, with too many midfielders doing the same stuff, busy, scrapping and closing down, with only Stacey doing anything creative.

Moore and Gash are still out best strikers, with Ibe good for coming on after an hour.

Having sid that, Purcell looked lost, but the effect of changing the team shape and pushing Luke up alongside Gash was a masterstroke by Liam, and won the game

The jury is still out on the new lad, had a couple of good touches, but didn't get too involved in where it hurts, or matters.

Accordingly, I would plump for

Cronin

Ricketts Smith Charles Opinel

Murray

Barrett Hand Long

Gash Moore

 

Subs

Mott

Pooley

Ibe

Slatter

Stone
