Rather enjoyed today. I have a nice signed pic of Beauts (thanks AB) and won a raffle prize! Back to the game and I agree with the other comments. Can someone tell me if they've changed the law on foul throws as the BW no 2 had one foot in the air for at least 3 that he took.
Flakey you're doing Sunday refs a disservice as he was worse than that.
Great result and loved the energy from the boys.
By the way on such a cold day it was great to see none of the outfield players wearing gloves until Rhys came on. Makes the Premiership players look like pansies.

That's two positive and spirited performances in a row now, even if the centre backs went wayward after going 2-0 up. One thing we have to stop doing is handing the oppo a chance to get something from the game and that means defending competantly for 90 minutes. We lost our shape at the back when Wheeler went off, but we kept at it and got the result I think we deserved.
Was the ref an April Fool offering? Seriously, to these guys have to take an incompetancy test before being let out on the pitch? He made Saturday's tweet look good. Ignoring poor physical challenges while booking people for technicalities. Are these guys assessed?
Still, Dos has set a target of 60 points to end the season on and if we keep playing with this enthusiasm and spirit we can get there, just please keep defending when we're in front.

I never made Dover but enjoyed the game yesterday.
A lot of our play was really good and as mentioned by Homes above, if we keep the defending a bit better over the whole 90 minutes, we have the makings of a good side.
I am sure that 2 games in 3 days may have contributed to a few tired legs which possibly explains the last 20 minutes or so but also think that this means the team deserve credit for holding out for a deserved win at the end of a busy weekend.
A bit more clinical finishing at the end of the good approach play would make for a very interesting season next year as the current squad continue to gel.
