W 1-0 vs Alfreton Town (H) - FA Cup Second Round Replay - Tue 12th Dec, 7:45pm

Some players of ours showing there level here though
Djt knowles okagbue all Alfreton level
Comley matt national league at best
Only Gordon daniels priest and stirk look like league players
I understand mcentee impact with goals and assists but he looks so out of place. Doesn’t impose himself, doesn’t create space to get on the balls. Kinda just there really

6 altogether - one for their manager too.

Acceptable first half from the Saddlers. Knowles has been good. Some stupid yellow cards. Going down to 10 men is the most likely way of us losing this so I’d be tempted to bring on Earing for Coms and Freddy for Jamma. Though I think the latter has played well and would love to see him score more to boost his confidence.

Should be 3 up but worryingly aren’t.
Dougie looks like he’s found his level. Awful header just before halftime. Should have buried that.

Nonsense

Just my opinion

Surely we should be crushing a team from the 6th tier? Watch Newport seeing off Barnet on ITV 4…that’s the way to do it, Alfreton even have better possession stats!
Think Tranmere will be looking forward to Saturday…

Yes, get another goal and it’s game over and then Sads can make some changes with the huge game on Saturday in mind.

No midfield just blind effort and no finesse. It’s brutal out there, real non league. Knowles has had a couple of decent runs but…….

In the same way Notts County were?

They probably won’t collapse in the 2nd half like County did.

Agreed we are just fitter than them that’s about it
Couple of good touches, couple of good runs and cross field balls but no where near consistent enough to be happy with where we are

Unexpected extra fixture. Give him a rest before Saturday?

Have the midfield been that bad ? Im working away in Edinburgh ao unable too attend listening to it on iFollow

Just tried BBC Sounds.
Found the commentary under BBC WM.
Its just playing some message on a loop…

Back to Radio Derby via the BBC sports website for me
:face_with_spiral_eyes:

No substitutes to start the 2nd half…

Enjoying listening to the radio commentary, it takes me back :smiley:
