[Andrew - North Hill]

Can't say I disagree with most of his assessment. Except the bit about losing our fluidity after the goal. We didn't have it before it. We were generally solid throughout though. It's something to build on.

We created one (Cullen's header straight at the keeper)

We got into a number of promising positions but made the wrong choices when in those positions

BTW - at least Cullen gets in the position for that header. Vipotnik would have been nowhere near it.

Quite possible. There was also an excellent underlap in the first half which saw Key glide past two defenders, he then played the ball across the box towards Cullen where it was cut out. If he had picked his head up Galbraith was all alone at the penalty spot with no one within five yards of him.

F**k off, you have had 6 weeks to get prepared and you serve up a performance like that. Makes my blood boil. Bloody tosspot.
