Think it was an own goal from DeVere

Think we've actually been quite poor so far, despite the two goals. If we don't pick up 2nd half, we'll drop points.

Poor? I think you're watching a different game. Possession, passing (number and accuracy), shots on target. Mariners have had nothing apart from an own goal and long range shots, we've given them nothing in the box. The nix passing on the other hand has been a joy to behold for the most part. Mariners are known for their tenacity in 50/50 situations, but I still think we are shading them there too. I can't understand how that can be described as poor.

Everything is relative - poor in comparison to the last few weeks; we let them back in despite them not having any real threats. They've beat us down Libby's side regularly and have hit the post twice. Just think it looks as if we're coming to grips with the modification in personnel. I'd expect Sotirio to come in for Hooper 2nd half and for us to go back to Davila being more central.

Giving up a goal from a defensive mistake puts us on par with last week. I don't think we are playing worse than at any other time during our unbeaten run, and despite the scoreline are looking very comfortable.

Edit: Its like people think of the Mariners and automatically assume a 5-0 scoreline.
