    Maybe I was watching a different game today but I thought we played fairly well and on another day we might have won three or four nil !
    Here are my points per player ( out of ten ) , just for fun !

    Hinchcliffe 6. Had virtually nothing to do , very steady though
    Knoyle 5. First half horror challenge affected his game
    Tourey. 5 First half shocker , improved after the break
    Horsfall 7 Steady as a rock , unflappable !
    Rydel 6 Better second half , nearly scored a screamer
    Croasdale 8 Very workmanlike in midfield from the off . Superb
    Barry 9 MOM . Fantastic display , Barrow could not cope
    Madden 6 Spraying lot of passes around the park today
    Tanto. 7 Missed a golden chance but a constant threat
    MSH 5 Always puts a good shift in , took a knock 2nd half
    Collar 6 Gradually getting back on song , good tackles

    County Subs
    Wright 7 Some decent strong runs from midfield
    Evans 6 Settled in well
    Crankshaw 5 Had a half chance near end
    Byrne 6 Should have started . Horsfall / Byrne for me

    Overall team performance : 7.5

    Other EFL comments
    The three teams that got promoted from last season into league one are all finding things tough . Am a bit surprised that Leyton Orient are near the bottom as they were by far the best team in league two last year . I am particularly interested in Carlisle’s results because they are about on par with us , playing strength wise . think we are a slightly bigger club than them , but where they are now is where we would have been in my view . Stevenage going well , they are a very dour , drab , defensive team to watch but they are clinical in their finishing , they may not make many chances in a match but often win one nil .

    I was expecting Wrexham to win 6 - 5 today with a winning goal in the fourteenth minute of injury time with an own goal following three deflections from a corner kick that hit both posts and went in off the goalkeeper .
    Was disappointed to learn it was only a 5 all draw . Never mind , it’s just a blip to their expected title triumph this season . League Two is all about who will finish second ….

    Anyway we move on to Mansfield , a good chance there , but D.C has a lot of work to do in getting the team selection right .
