Let's hope that match was the transition from "old Albion" to "new Albion". The first half was a sorry example of how we've been all season, completely unable to stamp authority on a match, string any passes together or beat a man. A lot of that was probably down to confidence, but we still weren't pushing up the field anywhere near enough or giving Gateshead anything to think about. Our two goals were undeserved on the balance of play, but the kind of quality you have to come up with in these games when you're the bigger team.

Second half, the confidence was a lot better, the general play and movement from our players visibly improved, we shifted through the gears as Gateshead tired and lost morale, and if we'd really gone for the jugular it could have been double figures. Hopefully this'll be the boost the boys need, and TP can get that midfield working again.
