This is my thoughts for the boys yesterday at Leamington. Everyone of them put in a shift and got a hard fought point against a strong leamington outfit.
Kind of day that, despite criticisms from myself and others at the best of times, signs are good that we are certainly improving and moving in the right direction. It showed we were still competitive against one of the top teams in this division despite having quite a depleted squad.
The Back 4 of Clarkey, Learoyd, Walmott and Martin were Immense for the entirety of the 90 mins and Mooney pulled off some great saves, especially in the first half. Ballard and Malone worked there socks off breaking up the Leamington play while Benjamin, who has been a touch inconsistent as of late, played a blinder. Fleet had one of his best games in the City shirt and Pablo who started out wide in the first half and played most of the second half as a lone striker troubled the Leamington defense and certainly looks one for the future, even got a fluky goal which deflected over the keepers head....lady luck shone on us today!
Also impressive when he made an appearance was Bell who showed glimmers of what hes capable of and what he will bring to the team when he finally gets back to full fitness.
All in all, regardless of what the score was after the 90, couldn't have asked for any more effort from the lads and as a paying customer thats all I expect to see.
