Post-Match Thread and Ratings Southend United 2 -0 Northampton Town

[spoons]

Clean sheet, Barry Corr and Worral score, happy days, well done Blues:smile:

 

[Bkdside]

Ok performance but most
importantly 2-0. Well done brown, turned it around and 4 on the bounce!

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

Only won 4 on the trot. Still need a striker. Still 4 points behind Wycombe. Brown out.

First 70 mins awful, last 20 mins good. Penalty changed the game. Worrall good again

What on earth was the match sponsor on giving Weston MOM?

3 points, never a red. Awful game. Next.

 

[David Icke]

Worrall man of the match. Otoole only touched the ball three times in the second half. A great statuesque debut - and brown subbed him last. Unbelievable.

Keeper pulled Corr down when Corr had a clear chance at goal. Red all day long

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

Timlin protected the back 4 on his own most of the time. He read the game superbly, and ran his wotsits off. So MOTM for me. Worrall next.
O'Toole will get better, especially when in his favoured roll. The game passed him by today.

O'Toole looks like his favorite roll IS his problem. ..

Either a joke, or because he was actually very good the last 20 minutes and they forgot about the other 70 minutes.

The transformation in him was immense, one minute couldnt do anything, then created two clear chances for Worrall and a great shot just tipped over. If he could play like that for 90 minutes he would be some player!

Overall fairly solid if uninspiring performance with lack of quality in the final 3rd as always, until the penalty when we then came alive.

Worrall again has an impact, he has been key in this winning run.

Not trying to cause a debate or row but i personally thought that Weston was our best performer today as did the 3 people I was with at the match.

All opinions I guess, but for me he is a decent option when he plays in his proper position on the left wing, he grafts, he is an outlet and he creates things - up top he is not the same player as he lacks that natural finishing ability and you don't get to run as much with the ball which is his best asset.

4 wins in a row..lets not get carried away though..some big games coming up against some harder opposition. Think we should have some Patience with John Joe, give him some time to play with the team. All in all another happy weekend, lets enjoy it while we can.

He got subbed after 82 minutes :winking:

He was an outlet and was quick but up until the keeper was sent off, he was woeful. His first touch was shocking and he didn't put in one good ball. Once the keeper was sent off, he got a bit of space and turned his game around. 20 mins for me doesn't deserve the MOM. Timlin was the most consistent player on the pitch and deserved the MOM. When Timlin plays well, SUFC play well.

Is Weston just straker with a different name on the back of his shirt?

Absolutely this, well said DWB.

As DWB says he was excellent after the penalty, but he was terrible first half and most of the second.

He is an outlet but didnt produce anything at all until coming to life late on when he looked quality.

Maximum 12 points from four league games in November.............who can complain then??? Answers on a postcard. I can't make much comment as the last twenty five minutes were lost for me, when BP went down and (for me) persistently wouldn't come back again. There are some who would wonder what the score would have been if their keeper hadn't screwed up with that, what sounded like, simple cross?.....we certainly seem to be getting the breaks at the moment.
November's 'easy ride' is over.........the next two games against Wycombe and Burton will pose a few more questions and may answer some as well. Six points from those games and even I may leave the doubters.
