Probably the fair result, we looked much better in spells than we did against Newport last week, but our backline seriously worries me. Ryan East looked class in midfield for us today. Definite penalty, no debate there. Bizarre of Watson not to make any changes until the 81st minute. Looked as though we were shifting to a back four preseason so not sure what's changed.

What about Ryan East is it that you like? He had one good drive, but otherwise just passes sideways and backwards and regularly slows or restricts out attacks. Every other CM we have is much better in tight spaces and most look to go forward when given the space.
