Thanks for the reports everyone. Currently, I'm on holiday in USA and as the match was starting I was driving past the scene of the historical Battle of Yorktown. It seems the teams were trying to do their own re-enactment! From 3000 miles away, it's difficult to comment but I'm taking a lot of positives from this game. Despite dropping 8 points out of 9, we are still just 2 points off top. GB had the courage to replace CJ with Stephenson; he lasted 90 minutes and did not let down. When down to 10, he resisted the temptation to bring on an extra midfielder and carried in playing for a win. The team showed a lot of spirit, particularly when a man short. And finally, we got an away point with 10 men. OK, on the debit side we continued to be profligate in front of goal and we are now two key players missing for a few weeks, but I'm feeling generally positive. The need for a CJ/JH replacement is now even more urgent. Presumably the money is available, but does GB have suitable targets in mind?
