The ref was great.

Re: Dons v Oldham 29th July 2018 : Sun Jul 29, 2018 4:23 pm  

And every single result went against us in the other games.

Re: Dons v Oldham 29th July 2018 : Sun Jul 29, 2018 4:26 pm  

Very good for 70 minutes. Dire for 10 minutes.

Why did we play as if we were 20 points behind instead of 20 points in front?

Our game management was absolutely appalling in the last 10 minutes.

Surely it was obvious to have 5 simple plays then a kick to touch or make Oldham play from their own 30 metre area, especially as it turned wet.

Happy with the win but it shouldn’t have been at the expense of my heart rate!

Glad Brad got mom - thoroughly deserved.

Yes Brad England was outstanding .
The score flattered Oldham we should have managed the last 10 mins much better .

That was the best I've ever seen Brad England play. He was outstanding.

Anyone just seeing the final score will have got a completely wrong idea of how the game went. The Dons were the better side across the field until Oldham woke up and we switched off.

As GM said in an earlier post, our game management at the end was awful. Hopefully we can learn a serious lesson from this.

Lessons are never learned if there is no fridge light on.

Agree with what everyone has said, as my post was going to be the same.
WHAT! happened there. in total control of the game and then switched off in last 10 Mins.

Good win (apart from the last ten minutes) Agree about Brad England -immense. Jack Logan is a cut above this League, Hakim was his usual heart stopping self, that intercept was too brilliantly quick for the happy whistle blower. Really like the look of the halves, cut out the penalties and have some control when needed and we have a decent side.

And a big apology to the players and coach from me, I thought we would not win these last two games.

How did Logan show he was a cut above? Really want him to find his mojo again as he is a good player.
