He should be disappointed and largely with himself. Yet again he stood impotently and inertly by while his plan 'A' produced little. Not helped as Benson again disgraced himself and the shirt by never breaking sweat. Even when we went one down Eccleston remains frozen out when just his pace terrifies defenses at this level, Powell's non-use of Nathan E defies credibility, especially when one in red so clearly doesn't want or deserve to be involved.<br />As for Huddersfield's goal, whether the 2nd free-kick was a fair decision I couldn't see from the Upper West and the tv 'highlights' don't help. What is clear is that the ball went through the wall at chest height so someone in the team failed his colleagues and us by chickening out. Sums up the Powell era perfectly.Sciurus Carolinensis Nemesisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329889984642264422.post-48324343918882485722011-04-17T11:42:20.269+01:002011-04-17T11:42:20.269+01:00Wyn, One of the better efforts this season.

Stewart looked a good prospect picking out some excellent passes and combined well with Soley and Wagstaff. Doherty (slow in pace and thought)and Fortune (two howlers) made some good defensive tackles. MNo-one rally at fault for the goal as from a free kick, tought they defended well enough to keep clean sheet, but was not to be.<br />But we were very one sided I can't recall a cross or ball put in from the left, so we didn't stretch their defence enough, not sure if Racon was just having an off day or aware of the threat from Hunt neither he or Beccone wanted to over expose themselves. Some tidy passing and movement, and effort put in, even though losing being clapped off at the end says it all. Roll on next season.Jacknoreply@blogger.com
