3-1 v Prescot

Game of two halves. First was quality and should have scored ten, second was cold and wet.

Deserved win, with video highlights not far away

1st Half, Lancaster good, Prescot crap. Windy. Cold.
2nd Half, zzzzzzzzzzzz, goal, save. Wet. Cold.

Prescot were a horrible team. No interest in football at all. The two centre halves were complete *********, the 7's dive in the first half was so blatant it was scarcely credible. Reminiscent of Mourinho's Porto team in their cynicism.

We did play well in the first half but we were helped by Prescot being so awful. When they got a bit more organised in the second half we looked pretty poor. It certainly looked for a while as though they might equalise, especially given the antics of our goalkeeper.

would of been heading in at half time 4-0 if it wasn't for 2 standout saves from their keeper. got very lucky in the second as they took over for the most part and our play become very sloppy and the midfield seemed to disappear. also was another shaky goalkeeping display

As far as I can recall virtually all second half showings this season have been a case of hang on to what we've got (even if losing) & if in doubt lump it up the wings for the likes of Swabba to chase in vain, one notable exception being Burscough (A)
Why on earth do we employ a fitness coach?

I certainly thought that shot he let through after his misplaced clearance was heading for the corner, but he made a terrific save just after we went 3-1 up.

What's the story with Whiteside then, does anybody know!?

He's on a fitness kick, and is getting married. https://twitter.com/FlappyHandsRich

As for his status with Lancaster, I haven't a clue.

He makes great saves and howlers in about equal numbers. A 50% success rate is just not good enough.
