Dem Blades v Notts County.

Just seen the goals - another lovely strike from Murphy (who looks like a scorer of good goals), and another from two yards out from done (who looks like a good goal scorer). Flukey equaliser from them, with the defender's header hitting Reed in the face, and bouncing straight to Noble to back-heel in!

 

As good as McNulty and Baxter can be, neither of them have the pace to worry defenders, but Done just gives us that extra threat now.

 

Give over it was a good finish with the back heel,Murphys was a cracker,3 more points and the playoffs are there for you.

Oh and Done looks a good signing at this point.

After the first 30 mins -when it looked like we were going to stuff them-it seemed like all the midweek games recently were catching up with us and some players ran out of steam.Notts had last weekend off and it told second half.I notice our next opponents will have had a 10 day rest when we play them.Cloughy might have to go back to his squad rotation.

Overall we deserved it, we were the better team.

It appeared that Notts County were time wasting at 1-1, which I find a bit bizarre.

 

Iain Turner, solid performance again and pulled off a cracking save early in the second half after Kennedy was done for pace,

 

Brayford, solid and good going forward.

Basham and Kennedy at centre half, great partnership, I think with how full blooded Kennedy is, he will at some point die on the pitch ha ha.

Harris his usual self.

Murphy was fantastic on the left and they were scared of him, reed and Doyle great together, even though they're both midgets.

Holt put in a good shift. As did Coutts...

 

This leaves us with Done... This guy is a revelation, we have been crying out for a player like this,

The guy never stops running and closing people down. Finally we have someone chasing the keeper as soon as he receives the ball.

Good poachers goal and now 4 in 3. What a player,

I am a bit concerned that because we know he will chase every little thing, that we will keep hitting it long for him to chase down.

 

On to Nigel, at 1-1 and U.S. chasing the game... He brings on McNulty, I think we are on for a treat of 442 (I used more Mike Bassett words though )..... No, 451 still with Done on the wing.

Thankfully we still pulled out the result, but it looked another bizarre move.

 

The team, I've not seen us chase down the ball since the Warnock era. It was great to see and the pressure forced county into a number of mistakes and us gaining possession.

Happy with the performance overall... Bring on Coventry

 

I have been saying that all along about TK. He is an old school defender, puts 100% into everything he does, risks everything, fearless.

Ah no I meant flukey in the way the ball came to Noble from a massive deflection off Reed - the finish itself was good. :)
