Ilkeston Updates

Forsyth came on for Bragoli at ht.

We haven't been as good this half.

[juanillo]

Turner has come on for Anderson. They've been better this half and our level has slipped.

[juanillo]

3 1. That had been coming. Platt clawed it out but it was over the line.

[dalevillain]

Yep definitely not been as good this half. They have upped their game to be half but we've slacked off. I think we've done enough to see the game through but disappointing we haven't carried on our first half performance into the 2nd half.

[juanillo]

Milne on for Sweeney.

Won 3 1. Good job we did the work in the first half.

Job done. Absolutely pulled their pants down first half. Second half was neither solid nor particularly entertaining. But that's 50 points up on the board and we're up to 13th.

Felt a bit sorry for Ilson as they've got a nice set up. Neat ground, cheap admission, decent facilities, advertising everywhere. It feels like they've got a lot of things right off the pitch, but the team is young and inexperienced and their masterplan isn't quite working out.

[Wheels]

Agree very clinical first half which ultimately was enough to win us the game to be honest, we never really got going in the second. As for Ilkeston , a very young and inexperienced side who I don't think are necessarily helped as a team when some of their best young players are snapped up by football league clubs et cetera although it may well give Ilkeston as a club, some postage and plaudits for their youth development.

John Hill tweeting about additional injury and Bragoli certainly didn't seem to be moving very freely as he left the ground.

We missed him when he went off at half time, let's hope it's nothing too serious.

I think the injury reference was in relation to Anderson. I hadn't noticed today, but it looks from the Yeltz TV highlights like he went off with a groin injury.

On a plus, it seems from the twitterverse that Sweeney is with us until the end of the season now, which is great news. We've also acquired Dan Farr from Kiddy as back up for Platty.
