My View from the East

As I was at the game today I thought I’d give my opinion on leaving the ground:

1. Dan Phillips was outstanding. I know Kemp was the official MotM but for me it was definitely Phillips. He has his detractors but I don’t remember him putting a foot wrong. So strong in the tackle, he gives everything. It was his tackle, run & shot that created the goal.
2. Freestone was also excellent. I was worried seeing Butler on the bench but needn’t have been. I’d heard Wycombe were strong on the right so I presume he was picked as a more defensive option.
3. Our defence is looking pretty solid. There’s always a couple of scares but generally they play well as a unit.
4. Reid ran his socks off today.
5. If Kemp leaves we’re in trouble!
6. Wycombe were awful & I can see them going down.
7. A very strange refereeing performance. Very fussy on a lot of things but let loads of obvious ones go.
8. We start games really slowly. We hardly had a kick in the first 20 minutes. The crowd was extremely quiet.
9. Second half was so much better again & it became enjoyable. I just wish we could score 2 or 3 so we could relax.

We have had a superb start to the season. Long may it continue!
