I don't think yesterday was that different to a lot of the season, but the results of a game can easily change the perception.
If Norris had buried his two chances, or the referee hadn't just made up a foul by Murphy, we'd probably be talking quite different about a decent result.
Lewy, the back 4 and D'Ath all largely did ok. Ogogo wasn't great. Hines needs to be rested or dropped. He's done nothing for ages and is showing why he's wound up with us more and more. His booking today was typical of him - a petulant foul following a decision not going his way a minute before. Elito must be in possession of some dodgy photos of someone - I can't seen any other reason why he wasn't put out of our misery yesterday and lasted 90 minutes. Maybe Shields can steal those photos so he can get more than 5 minutes when we're chasing a game. It may not be work out, but surely he deserves a decent chance when others aren't performing.
The subs yesterday were ridiculous. If anything Norris was starting to do more than had all game when he got taken off. Murphy wasn't having a great game, but is always capable of poaching something. I have no idea of what the point of taking Connors off for Shields was.
