Smith 6 Quite impressed but not totally convinced yet
Virgo 7 He was typical Virgo Mr Reliable
Tunnicliffe 5 Stands off of attackers too much not tight enough
Elphick 4 Disgraceful, unnecessary tackle near the centre circle.
Whing 6 Looks more comfortable on the left but was left for dead for the first goal.
Bennett 7 Good crosses but not enough on the ball to show his alleged speed and trickery.
Croft 5 Did a workman like job but no inspiration.
Navarro 5 Good first half but faded in 2nd . Not yet fit?
Cox 4 Made up the numbers but offered no threat.
Dickenson 8 MOM good feet, poor in the air and goes to ground too easily, superb goal. Missed another with a poor free header.
Forster 6 Lot of running and scored a goal so did his job but not the answer for the season as he is begining to show his age.

Subs:

Hawkins 1 Wore the correct kit hopefully for the last time.
Wright 4 Did a lot of nothing when he came on
Dicker 6 Showed that he should be the holding midfielder allowing Navarro, Thornhill or Cox to be the attacking one.

RS: 5 Has still not worked out his best team and was wrong bringing on Hawkins when the problem was the gap between midfield and defence that needed filling should have brought on Dicker to fill it.

Long term I am not sure that RS is the answer but should stick with him for a bit longer to give him chance to sort it out.
