Only really one team in it this afternoon. Total control from start to finish, and really deserved more goals. The second half performance in particular was excellent, and the Dover goal led a charmed life. Some desperate defending, the inside of a post and a really good save - three-nil would not have flattered. Osbourne has to get a goal soon - he, particularly, was really unlucky not to get one.
One of the Dover lads was lucky to stay on after hacking Colclough down. Ryan was subbed soon after, and he also took a knock in the first half. Hope he's OK. They, rightly, were scared of him.
Marriott was everywhere, and is balanced really well be Osbourne. Kossy had a really good game, and I was impressed by Perritt as well. Ferguson was commanding in defence - wouldn't be surprised if he goes up a level or two next season. I was interested to see Toby was showing some real leadership in the warm-up, even if he was rested for the game. Thought that was a real positive.
And as an exile who hasn't got to a game for a long time, I was really impressed that Nigel Bunce took the time to talk to me before the game, and Bill Waterson chatted to me for much of the second half. Says a lot about the club, that.
