Dover (a) The Match Thread With a Shrine for Ricky Modeste
Re: Dover (a) The Match Thread With a Shrine for Ricky Modes
Good to get 3 points against another relegation fodder team.
Great to see young lad score again, much stiffer tests to come though.

Re: Dover (a) The Match Thread With a Shrine for Ricky Modes
First game of the season that I've attended.
Didn't know what to expect after what I've read on this forum.
Pleasently surprised. OK it wasn't brilliant or very good but it wasn't as bad as what I was expecting either.
Thought we let them back into the game but didn't see any player looking like the weakest link in the team and on the whole it was a good team effort.
Probably never see Barnet play that great football like when we had freedman divine hodges etc or a Gary bull but a good team effort to get the three points.

Pina Colada type of man is Beegone.
Scrappy first half, we didn't really have to do much to be in front. Great hit from Barham assisted by Bryon and then flip reverse for the second.
Second half we let them come back into it and looked happy to soak up pressure. Got better after they scored and pushed up the pitch a little. Walker sub helped, holding onto the ball up top.
Midfield still looks weak. Need reinforcements in there now. Will get overrun when the better teams come along.

fair assessment, who would you change in the midfield 3? what are your thoughts on the 352 system we are playing?mcleod23 wrote:Pina Colada type of man is Beegone.

All our defeats have been heavy or deserved (1-2 Eastleigh, 0-2 Harrogate, 0-3 Ebbsfleet).GenkiDev wrote:Confitmation 9f our win is the fact this thread is only just 5 pages long.

All our wins have been by the skin of our teeth (1-0 Chesterfield, 2-1 Dagenham, 2-1 Dover).
Until we win a game three or four nil, we're not going to worry the leading sides. The goal difference could come back to haunt us like last season if we have any aspirations of going straight back up...........
But we are moving in the right direction.
Re: Dover (a) The Match Thread With a Shrine for Ricky Modes
I think we definitely need to rotate for Tuesday. I suspect tiredness may have been a factor in us letting them back in after half time.
Re: Dover (a) The Match Thread With a Shrine for Ricky Modes
Replacement for Fonguck. An older head who can guide us through games like today when we're not doing one or other. 352 suits Tutonda and Alexander and that looks to be our biggest threat. For me the system, doesn't rely on the three being great in the middle as the two wing backs are getting forward into those midfield areas.UnderhillStackSave wrote:fair assessment, who would you change in the midfield 3? what are your thoughts on the 352 system we are playing?mcleod23 wrote:Pina Colada type of man is Beegone.

We're getting through games with a scratch side. 1 in at CB and 1 in CM would give us something more until the crocked players are back.

Re: Dover (a) The Match Thread With a Shrine for Ricky Modes
what would your solution be to replace Fonguck, if Andre came in would Adams and him sit to deep together? Taylor and Fonguck have provided energy to get into the box and goal scoring positions, they have legs and drive forward and also an understanding.mcleod23 wrote:Replacement for Fonguck.

agreed with the wing backs, its great to have their legs and pace. Plus the partnership between harrison and Barham up front is starting to show peomise

Shaq? There's no reason why Walker, Shomotun, Sule, EMC can't be made use of.mcleod23 wrote:Isn't much to rotate with!!!#Beebot wrote:I think we definitely need to rotate for Tuesday. I suspect tiredness may have been a factor in us letting them back in after half time.
Re: Dover (a) The Match Thread With a Shrine for Ricky Modes
Still wasn’t on the touchline for all of the 2nd half and wasn’t on the pitch at the end. He also didn’t do the post match interview....
Good first half performance. I think Barham and Tutonda coming into the side has energised the team and the change of formation hides our weaknesses in the middle of the park.
Harrison is coming along nicely... put away a simple header after a nice pull back from Barham. Set up Barham for the first which was a lovely finish.
Dover were not that great. You beat what’s in front of you! It’s a tough league. As long as we finish in the top 7 to give ourself a shot at promotion I’ll be happy.
