Chaigneau 7.5 - Shaky start, but improved substantially. Much better distribution than Kuipers.
Lynch 8 - Very good debut; strong, solid and decent enough in possession.
Butters 7 - Defended soundly against good forwards.
McShane 7 - Some excellent tackles, very strong under pressure.
El Abd 6.5 - Good defensively, some shocking passing.
Frutos 6.5 - In and out.
Mayo 6.5 - Recovered from a poor start, got the goal.
Carpenter 7 - Fought hard under considerable pressure.
Carole 6.5 Some good runs; as ever, little end product.
McCammon 5 - Good in the air early on, but degenerated. Shite on the deck, too easily outmuscled.

Chaigneau 7 (I was worried but he did well after a shaky start)
El Abd 6
McShane 7
Butters 7
Lynch 7 ..so not the defence's fault we lost
Carole 5 anoymous and should have tracked back with their left back before the first goal)
Carpenter 7
Mayo 7
Frutos 8 m.o.m-threatened throughout
McCammon 5
Robinson 6
Subs Jarrett 5
Gatting on too short a time to rate.
Ref Riley very good-an easy afternoon for him but some FL refs would have still managed to ruin the game.

Very true. I hardly noticed him, which tends to be a good sign.

I wont do players ratings, seeing as I'm a fairweather fan and all that, but I thought they all did well. Tank was pleased for Lynch, he did good.
Crowd 10/10......... You sure know how to make some noise!
My ears are still bloody ringing from DTG yelling ALBIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON in them without any warning
Nice to meet some of ya at last, Yorkie, Ned, DTG, El Pres, Dover, Biscuit

Chaigneau 6 - Handling not good enough. What did Kuipers do to get dropped. Made a few good saves in the second half.
Lynch 8 - MOTM. Excellent. Won everything in the air and looked competent out of position.
Butters 6 - Too slow for this level.
McShane 7 - Looking like he is getting back to his best.
El Abd 7 - Some good tackles. Passing a bit suspect at times.
Frutos 6.5 - Possibly should have been replaced by Cox.
Mayo 7 - Last time he had a season in central midfield he was joint top scorer with Jeff Minton. 10/10 for effort.
Carpenter 7 - 10/10 for effort as above.
Carole 6.5 - Not his best game.
McCammon 5 - Did not do nearly enough. Would rather he wasn't on the pitch towards the end but can see why McGhee persisted with a big man up front.
Robinson 6 - Got to do better. Has the potential and I am sure he will improve.
Jarrett - Waste of a substitution.
Gatting - Did not get a chance to show the talent he has.
Cox - Should have come on.
Stewards - Absolute knob jockeys.

Chaigneau 7 Kept us in the game in the last 20 minutes, but the ending shouldn't spoil a good day for him
El Abd 7 Some crucial blocks and tackles
McShane 8 Back to his tigerish best, so dynamic, our clear MOTM
Butters 7 Marshalled the rearguard well given that it was a bit Alamo-like at times
Lynch 7 Confident full debut and stuck to the hard task of Dyer well.
Carole 5 A bizarre off day. Caught a bad tackle in the first half and that was the last we saw him. Needs a recharging rest before Leeds
Carpenter 6 Involved in our best movements but this was a tough day for our midfield defensively, and often could not provide the cover the defence needed
Mayo 6 Struggled early on but then worked his socks off to get his side back in the game
Frutos 7 Energetic display, produced a great save from Neimi, the turning point of the game, alas
McCammon 6.5 Another decent shift from the big man, but still needs to work himself harder into scoring positions
Robinson 6.5 Bright display and his movement was instrumental in unsettling the Saints defence
Subs Jarrett 6 Little opportunity as the service to the front men had gone by the time he came on
Gatting on too short a time to rate.
McGhee 9 Thought this was one of his best tactical days of the season, mixed the newcomers, some old hands and some positional switches superbly to get us near the level of Southampton. Interesting also that McGhee spent so much time trying to get Blackstock last season, fine player.

Can't be bothered with ratings but would pick out the main points.
Chaigneau looked shaky but got better as the match went on but not overly impressed to want to see him again.
El Abd getting better each game needs an extended run.
Lynch very impressive debut looked comfortable and can kick with his left foot as a left back.
Butters mister reliable did nothing wrong.
McShane encouragingly showed why we may be able to sign him permenantly as he isnt good enough for the top but is for us easily turned for their 1st goal.
Carole & Frutos luxury that we cannot afford playing both at the same time.
Mayo did the simple things simply and didnt lose the ball or give away freekicks around the edge of ther box one of his best games for many a month.
Carpenter looked happy having a holding man alongside him which allowed him the freedom to play.
Robinson looked sharp but unlikely to score a goal or get into the penalty area.
McCammon to quote MM' we have got to teach him how to score a goal' held the ball up well when it was 5 / 6ft off of the ground.
McGhee another disappointing day with use of substitutes is there a College of Further Education that teaches when and how to use substitutes if so please enrol MM BB and DW.

My view based ENTIRELY on the radio...
Chaigneau - sounded like he was verypoor first half, commentators seemed to think he couldn't hold anything. Sounded like he had a much better second half.
The defence - seemed pretty solid. Lynch was mentioned a lot, greatly impressed the commentators.
Midfield - Chippy and Mayo were barely mentioned. Sounded like Frutos and Carole were lively and threatening- maybe a different reading to most on here!
McCammon and Robinson - sounded like McCammon did pretty well. Winning the ball in the air, causing a nuisance etc. Robinson sounded like he worked hiss balls off and had one of his best games.
N.B Norman Gall was co-commentator so...
