I suspect Smith (and all the others) were running on empty the amount of effort that was put in. I agree though that I’d probably have tried to keep one sub back especially as there was gonna be a load of injury time.
I felt there was a turning point in the game on about 35 mins when Snith started to take the ball off Tickle from goal kicks. We stopped lumping the ball forward and tried to play through them and we did it quite well. The Sessegnon sub at half time gave us the impetus and we moved the ball through them and quickly and dangerously. If Rankine had improved his final ball into the box there were times we actually had bodies in there. That said, Rankine finally showed us what he can do.
Came off the ground with a lot of optimism despite the late killer blow
If (and I know it’s a big if) we can play like that at home against the lesser sides then we will be fine.
Reckon Aimson is a great signing
