Same old, same old; winning the game, two goals conceded and an injury time winner against us. What’s changed?

It would be easy to think that was the case if you hadn’t watched what unfolded at the MKM Stadium. It would be easy to point at the same failings as last season but that doesn’t tell the true story.

We played some quality football in the first-half, created a number of opportunities, albeit not taking advantage of them or turning them into goalscoring chances, had a high press, dominated the ball in the opening 30 minutes and Kal Naismith and Mark Sykes were excellent on their debuts.
