L 2-1 vs Barrow (A) - League Two - Tue 16th Aug, 7:45pm

Mansfield Town 1 AFC Wimbledon 2 (32 min)

I put the Newport performance down to a tough away game in league two and was over the moon with a win but we looked nothing like the opening day.Then Saturday I said to the Mrs on the way back that we again looked nothing like the Hartlepool game.Let’s hope we can get back to knocking the ball about sooner rather than later.

Starting to think Hartlepool were just really poor and made us look good rather than the other way round. We’ve looked very laboured going forward in games since then.

Currently being done over by Josh Gordon again ffs…

We’re just prodding the ball 20 yards into the midfield from the back. Clarke has been guilty of doing that twice in the last 5 mins when he had a pass on to Comley who was in space. Comley went beserk the 2nd time.

Is Hutchinson better than Osadebe?

Correct no midfield, no outlet and Danny Johnson dropping deeper and deeper in frustration.

Sorry just popped on. Why isnt Earing playing?

This is bad no improvement on last season. No midfield again

I am beginning to think that the Hartlepool game was a bit of an anomaly

Osadebe would still be better even with his broken leg at the moment

I would expect with 5 subs available, we can afford 3 at half time. Williams, Earing and Knowles, maybe?

Who have we got on the bench that can change this after half time?

Guess who :wink:

Kinsella is way to high nowhere near the ball in attack or defence.
Conley being marked out of picking the ball from defence
Hutch doesn’t seem to want to be involved at all
I’d bring earing and Maher on now tbh for kins and hutch

Barrow are doing to us as we did to Hartlepool, their intensity and pressing has been impressive.

Maher and Knowles coming on.

Because we need a screen in front of a screen in front of a screen in front of a screen.

It’s known as the ā€œRumbelows formationā€
