he was protecting himself.
Second half, ball to hand or hand to ball (?) of a player turning his back,
I thought penalty others said no intention so not.
Hart, hacked down before the player played the ball, others on the bus said
the player took the ball first in a great match winning tackle!
IMHO we lost because Hinshelwood and Brooker have fallen out and he won't
swallow his pride and play our most creative player. Secondly Melton was
having a much better game last night, we constantly attacked down the right
side, looking very dangerous, and he takes him off and leaves Oatway on the
pitch.
One of the biggest cheers last night was when he finally took Oatway
off. Has Paul Rogers had a fall out with Hinshelwood? Why give him a new
contract then not play him for even 5 minutes. At least he can be creative
and play a decent ball forward.
Cullip and Butters are a weak central partnership, which has surprised me.
The way they collided was like watching a cartoon, I expected one of them to
get out an acme hole and jump in and disappear after the goal.
Carpenter had another great game in midfield, Hart was at his best, Melton
looked good and Watson was better when he switched to right back.
Sadly we have lost to yet another poor team.
So we have achieved the magnificent 7, I don't think I can face 8 in a row!!

Ps Cracking atmosphere at times last night, the crowd seam to be split 50/50
over Hinshelwood. If we carry on like this we are doomed, but who do we get
to replace him?
PPS Nice to see Cotterill get a great reception from the South Stand,
he certainly got more applause than our bench!
