Brilliant, hopefully Kelman will get a run out now.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

No no no no no there's no limits

2 minutes to be added on.

 

[Chapperz]

HT 3-0.

I'm sure Powell knows what we all want to see happen.

 

[mattitouk]

Half Time.

A 4-3 loss?

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Ht and 3-0 to the good.Next (knock out) round here we come.

 

[AB_Shrimper]

Look good so far.

 

[AndyT]

Good first half.

Work rate excellent.

Well taken goal by Elvis.

Would like us to go 4-4-2 though. Bunn and Kites seem to be doing the same job

Dru impressive as ever.

I was thinking the exact same thing, technically he has a bit of a headache, does he settle for a 2nd place finish, or perhaps go strong for the other 2 goals and bring on more senior players such as Cox etc.

Personally, i hope the current team get 2 early goals in the 2nd half and takes that equation out of his mind.

Yeah even playing deeper than usual. Best footballer at the club.

Don’t we only need 1 more goal to win the group?

 

[AndyT]

Don’t we only need 1 more goal to win the group?

2 goals to win the group

Nope we are joint top but second on goal difference.

Really hope kelman gets a few first team minutes.

 

[RHB]

Three goals in the North Stand end, 'ave some of that!!!

 

[SHRIMPERPETER]

Don’t we only need 1 more goal to go through?

We're through anyway however many we win by it's just trying to be top of the group so we'd be at home next round which I think we need 2 more

Via Robert Craven:

Elvis didn’t score a competitive goal for the U18s in 63 appearances and hasn’t scored in 25 U23s games either, so it really was a special moment!

 

[Chapperz]

Wouldn't have minded seeing Yearwood come off with 15 minutes left if still winning by 3, but only Dieng on the bench in his position.

 

[RHB]

In the words of Roger Daltry, the kids are alright tonight.
