Kicking was a bit dodgy at the start when he kept punting them out for a throw in. However, he settled down after that, although he wasn’t tested much.
Alan Maybury – 6
Didn’t get forward as well compared to his two previous games. Distribution was a bit wayward at times, however, part of that was down to having no wide player supporting him.
Darren Kenton – 6
Apart from one casual mistake that almost let in Taylor score the first half, he was solid again and won almost everything in the air.
Patrick McCarthy – 5
Almost sent off after committing a number of fouls. Substituted to avoid the inevitable from happening.
Alan Sheehan – 7*
His debut resulted in a promising performance at left back. Composed on the ball and has a sweet left foot.
Joey Gudjonsson – 5
A typically erratic performance from Gudjonsson. Winning the ball, then wasting it by losing possession cheaply.
Stephen Hughes – 5
Didn’t do much with the ball when in possession. Although movement around him was a bit too static.
Jordan Stewart – 4
Didn’t offer anything going forward. Distribution was poor and was dispossessed easily on a number of occasions.
Stefan Moore – 4
Anonymous throughout.
Mark de Vries – 4
Failed to make any sort of impact.
David Connolly – 5
Didn’t receive any sort of service.
Substitutes:
Matt Heath – 6
Replaced McCarthy and did what was required of him.
Richard Stearman – 6
Dion Dublin - 5
