how we missed Johnson today! Reckon we'd have earned a good 2-2 (Sinclair 12 Becchio 32 Somma 79 Dobbie 89) with our usual line up. I've seen a few more games than usual this year (at all those score draws we've snatched from the jaws of victory) and must say I've been impressed with Johnson in as much as he bosses the midfield - or at least tries to - and generally plays a fair ball when simple ball is on - and i was biased as I didn't think he was good enough for league one, and then the transfer issue. I also note that Becchio makes things happen - not just by scoring, but he has an influence on the crowd and the team and the opposition. Remember Smith's near debut up against adams and keown when he wound them both up that they should both have seen red, becchio has a bit of that. Suspect today's game didn't show that Somma or 442 were particularly our best starting options. I'd love Paynter to get a goal or few as I feel he could be the Becchio alternative that could work with Somma, however, as it stands we clearly need 3 midfielders to complement the wonderful snods and gradel. I think the team have done brilliantly this season in getting it together and punching above our weight (proved today) with attitude, confidence, determination and a brilliant crowd. Crowd brilliant again today.
