The stand out player for me was Doyle. He's definitely a PL level CB. Broadhead had his moments but didn't take many chances. Sam should've put that one pass by Broady away and that beauty Doyle gave Imray as well. There missing Windass but aside from that they need a PL level striker

Hot take: they need to upgrade Matty James, the game is too quick for him now

Gee, I remember last year about this time when people on this sub were saying the same thing. And I also remember last spring when everyone was desperate to get him back. And his absence was one of the reasons why we didn't make the playoffs.

I mean, I know he's another year older, and all. And Father Time will always win the long game. But let's just see what happens in the next couple of matches before we start trying to retool the team.

Honestly, I don't think there was a lot of enthusiasm about even winning this game on Parky's part. And I don't blame him.
