Bouncing back quickly after conceding is a very good skill to have.

Very poor half of football from both sides. All the goals have been scrappy - particularly Gallifuocos - although when we've got the ball down we've knocked it around fairly well. How we've all too often we've seen McGinty popping it long, looking for Blissett who is winning more than against, say, Sutton but still not really winning enough or creating enough.

Reid has looked very impressive, working harder and far more mobile than Williams. Midfield looks weak - Chaney has played a couple of good passes but otherwise has been quiet, and Ward has been very ineffective. At the back we look ok, LRT and Verma have done particularly well. Akinola for them is looking a very tricky customer.

Such a poor game it's there for the taking from both sides

Looks like Shepherd Murombedzi scored and gave away a pen for Solihull Moors today.

Pleased for Youngy - this may boost his confidence as he has looked a little subdued of late.

Hoping this will manifest itself into a confidence booster which will spark a few more wins and get the supporters back into Plainmoor.

Was fairly comfortable in the end. In reality, Braintree never really threatened our goal again and Moore didn't have anything more than routine stuff to deal with.

We had a couple of chances to win more comfortably, mainly a shot from Sparkes which was headed brilliantly off the line.

The Blissett\Reid partnership looks to have some mileage in it, and Scrivens was quite an eye-catching cameo. In the right situations, he could be a game changer. Defensively we were solid, full backs both had a good game and I was quite impressed by Gallifuoco. Yes his heading is a bit unconventional but at least he's winning it! Midfield was a bit on the weak side, actually looked better once Chaney had gone off.

Having seen the Sutton game and this, a significant improvement. we should be lower mid table, and it's reassuring to know there are sides significantly more sh*t than we are
