It was frustrating in the stands amongst the 1245 travellers which was suprisingly low for this stage of the season ( sky and work tomorrow I accept) and the Derby (almost as massive as Wendy) fans let us know what they thought to the empty seats.
VLP once again offered very little, cant wait for Scanz, who may well be in his last half a dozen games for Town, to get up to speed to give him some serious contention for that wide play shirt. Lolley who looks just too lightweight for this level of the Champs, another we might see move on, did his defensive duties well but he is struggling to find any form in his bit part appearances.
Deano, perhaps the clock is ticking for him age wise too struggles with 90 mins at this level and his distribution is questionable, so agreeing with much that has been said we didnt play well enough to dominate nor threaten them more than the 1st goal which Super Col stuck away well, he then continued to look lively for the 1st half and adapted to change roles when Wells was introduced.
The atmosphere was really quiet amongst the local sheep a real end of season affair for them, but Buttercups introduction along with Johnny Russell gave them another kind of threat. With having dropped deeper and deeper it was a risky tactic to try manage out the full 90 mins and we were nailed on to cock up once the singers at the back started the coming for you song which the locals found hilarious.
So 3 points wasnt to be, nor did we in truth merit it, we can now concentrate on the play off jostling, beating Fulham might aid Leeds on Saturday, but Burton will fancy their chances in their current form so thats not a given.
Mooy was strangely quiet, I dont think he has 2 games in 4 days at his high level maybe because Hoggy only had 10-15 mins he operates differently and Deano doesnt offer the same level of protection or options to give and go.
Enjoyed Wagner's honest post match interview which appeased me somewhat, it wasnt a Bristol or Forest capitulation and was in some ways a practice run for an away first leg tie where we want to frustrate and play on the break.
