this was towns worst performance of the season ,they made a very slow start we played a 3 -5-2 formations towns defense looked stretched and Walsall were getting behind us far to often, Godfrey was right back , towns forwards looked very static and we did not cause them any problems until the 40th minute were the half time came too early for town as we had a flurry of chances . we got to about 20 yards from there goal and it was just begging for someone to shoot but we went for the extra pass and things either fizzled out or we tried to walk the ball in.
the ref sent godfrey off ,saunders and ogogo got yellow cards i thought they were all rather harsh.
Payne missed towns best chance to drag his shoot wide i wondered if he was nursing an injury as his posture looked odd.no one came out of this game with much credit we looked to huff and puff and kick and hope. a collective poor team performance to add insult injury towns defense switched off to concede a soft goal near the end of the game. i dont know if it was because we had already got to the next round but we lacked pace, we ;lacked ideas and we did not look very sharp.
