Optimistic but pessimistic realist⭐
Game of two halves and all that.
If we can get a point or three at Mansfield then I will really really really start believing.
First half was fortunate to be 1-1 but then you make your own luck with pressing and chasing and the hard work off the ball so long may it continue.
Then the changes and to be honest it was quite comfortable after that. 3 goals, 3 points.
Got a proper glimpse of Akinola last night. Another 45 in the tank. Whether 25 yards from our goal or theirs he can beat a man, simple passing, good movement and strong in possession with a lovely dash of flair and pace in there. Exactly what we have lacked up front for a long time hopefully he finds the back of the onion bag soon.
Centre half duo look solid with a good understanding interested to see how they get on against a proper centre forward pairing from a side further up the table.
Feels good, 3 unbeaten, 7 points and back within a point of safety shame we can't be there for the foreseeable again considering that roots hall rather surprisingly feels like a much safe place to go covid wise as opposed to supermarkets, the train to work, the office, you name anything you can do in tier 3.
January will be key, if K Tizzle and Jimmy O go back to their parent clubs replacing them will be the fine margin between EFL or NL. A forward would be most welcome to accompany Akinola on a permanent basis as well.
Up the blues and on to Mansfield!
