Vauxhall In A Nutshell

Vauxhall packed the midfield and made it hard but rarely threatened apart from when they hit the post.

No segregation. Can a steward please report to the burger bar. There was a gate in the fence that allowed people to venture behind for a wee.

We had a shot that was about a yard over the line and stopped by their defender's hand but the referee gave nothing.

Brown scored a nicely placed header from a good cross.

Thank god we're through.

And Bjornsson struggled a bit.

thanks, sort of glad i didnt go now.

you have to wonder if bjornsson will ever score again, he certainly cant say he hasnt been given a chance.

we got through and murray wasnt needed so really pleased with that.

gota nasty looking run of games coming up in the league, the next 6 all look tough.

Bjornsson really was our weak link. He's an ex-Iclandic international so I'm confused.

Is he actually a striker or is he a defender in disguise?

Is it English football?

I think he looks a lot more comfortable in defence. In attack he is certainly no better than Larkin.

Hopefully the win against Brighton will give the team plenty of confidence going into the next 6 games which do indeed look tough.

We were pretty poor most of the game. Vauxhall did well & even looked comfortable for a few minutes here & there. Can see why they're doing well in their league. Well organised & they stifled us for long periods.
Have to concur about the Whale-Killer . Shyte.

We struggled to beat a side three divisions below us -poor all round.

Pleased for Browny & at least we're through.

Bring on the Glovers.

In defence of Bjornsson, wasn't it him that 'scored' the first one?

Poole was a much bigger let down in my eyes.

Given we didn't struggle at all to beat the team top of our league on Saturday I don't really think there is any reason to worry about the performance last night. Not that you were like :wink:

It was simply a case of doing enough to make sure we got through to round 2. We all know we can play better.

It was impossible to say because there was no segregation but I reckon 200+

Very difficult to say! In the second half I was stood near a group of people and I had no idea they were Pools until we started celebrating!
