Tend to not watch the 'highlights' when we lose but having just watched them dear oh dear. The goal is just a clusterfcuk of errors. Nicholson doesn't deal with the first ball, Nathan Craig is in the way of everyone, Saah makes it worse by getting involved and not dealing with it and Poke is indecisive (to an extent understandable due to the circus in front) but drops the ball right on Revell's foot.

Even worse is they do the exact same thing in the second half only Poke obviously a) doesn't call it then b) drops it again and we get lucky.

It's really basic stuff from both Poke and the defense, sometimes you hear a mangers soundbite and you think well every goal is a 'bad' goal when you conceed but that defensive effort Saturday on those clips can only be described as shambles. Very lucky to lose 1-0.

NC isn't in anyone's way, he goes behind Nico and the striker. Everything is going just fine up until the point when Saahsy, utterly inexplicably, dives towards the ball, making like he is going to nod it to Poke from about 6 inches away, then dummies it, leaving Pokey to stick out a right arm and deflect it straight to this season's L2 top scorer. Take Saah out of the last two matches and we beat Promotion favourites Port Vale at their place and get a point against Rotherham. **** ing hell Saah!
