What on Earth is going on down here?
Just checked the L2 table for the first time this season and only 4 teams have managed more than 1 win out of the 3 games (though I imagine it's likely Swindon would also be on two wins had they played Colchester)... how is that even possible?
First half I feared the worst. Wigan looked like a big strong fast side who were just ahead of us to everything. I think some of our players are still adjusting to League One, you can't try and fanny around being patient because the ball will be taken off you.
Second half we improved massively...
Has a better chance of breaking through with us but yeah he'll not be going straight into the first team. Life is difficult really for a reserve keeper as you only get a chance if the number one either gets injured or has a string of poor performances.
We've signed keeper Jokull Andresson from reading on a season long loan. Seen as someone who can challenge Holy for our number 1 position. Remember him being well thought of at Exeter in L2, surprised he's not risen further up the pecking order at reading
Are we going to get the traditional Port Vale video analysis after that? Last season I missed the three pages of screenshots showing what was offside and wasn't a booking that concluded every match thread.
He drifted out wide a lot which is exactly what Simmo doesn't want his forwards to do.
Overall we just looked like we weren't up to speed today, which is understandable, a lot of players who I'm confident can step up but today was their first taste of what they need to do to do well at this...
