  On bus back. Second half much better than the first. Not a game to write home about, but a win to get us going. The team went up a gear when Quinn came on, very glad to have him back. Kelly's first goal was a screamer, second not so bad either. Very impressed with Rinhomota first half, and Andresson in the second. Other than that, not much to say! Pleased to get the season up and running.

  Unbelievable save by Jakkola in the second half by the way, he'll be pleased with pulling that off on his chance to impress the manager

  Yep, posted my thoughts on the other thread Quinn definitely made a big difference. Clement, Kelly 2nd half, Rinhomata and Anssi all did well. Moore very untroubled as you'd expect

  Btw, is it just me, or was that the fattest referee ever to grace the Mad Stad?

  A win is a win. Far better performance than I expected on seeing the starting line up. The youngsters gained invaluable experience tonight. Good to see Mendes and Quinn get run outs. Barrow has the pace to trouble defences. Playing Kelly further up the pitch was a tactical masterstroke. Job done.

  First half was dreadful. Lots of sideways and backwards passing going nowhere fast and a continuation of Saturday. Second half improved with the introductions of Quinn and Barrow, which enabled Kelly and Clement to get more involved. Was not the most entertaining game, but a wins a win a the end of the day.

  Btw, is it just me, or was that the fattest referee ever to grace the Mad Stad? He was good value. Could hear every word he said.
