After last 2 games it looks like they should be made to stay on pitch at half time as it looks like they go to sleep in the dressing room.
When people say about half backs Shaun Leafe started at half back

wahs - are you saying he started his career as a half back ?

Re: Gateshead Away 11/04/10 : Sun Apr 11, 2010 4:56 pm  

As far as I am aware he played half back at belle Vue

The table. There must be some sensible reason for this second half crap....I don't buy this inexperience guff.....that's just an excuse. It's something that can be worked on and should be. They are either not fit enough or they are turning off or they are not motivated enough to go for the jugular or a combination. It should be sorted out at coach level.....since it is holding this side back. Did we have injuries that disrupted our second half? It will be interesting to hear first-hand reports from the stalwarts when they get back anytime soon.

Think the half time team talk needs changing, because the last two weeks first half`s have been good displays, second half`s totally Shi*e.

We came out in the second half like we were the beaten team, instead of the team that was dominating the game...Credit to Gateshead they never stopped playing, the last two second half displays need to be looked at.

Aaron Henry for me was the MOTM.

And there didn't seem to be any injuries from where we were sat.

That's right, Shaun played at six when he first went down to Belle Vue, playing understudy to Paul Mansson, all those years ago. He also toured Australia with GB students in 2003, playing at 6 in all five games.

For the second game in a row, fantastic first half (even allowing for the opposition). I don't know, and I don't think any of the supporters know, WTF happens at half time.

One thing is for sure, we come out a different (almost beaten) side in the second half.

Gateshead weren't great first half and second half they were only slightly better but it was enough to virtually take them past us.

Again, I come away from a game grateful for a win but feeling disappointed overall.
