Attempt to raise spirits

Guys,
Not being around ever week, it's not easy for me to judge the mood of the team, or whats going on,so you can appreciate that the news of team mates arguing, abuse to opposition and to each other, and a team refusing to play us anymore comes as quite a shock to me!
However, lets put all the negativity behind us now, and build on last night. After a slow start, we really dominated, looked to keep the ball on the floor, and, with a number of players not playing in their preferred position, didn't look disjointed at all. (Sam, absolute class!)
I want to make special comments about Barry and Perre. Barry was asked to come off, as per Thorny's pre match warning, had a bit of a grumble on the sidelines, but responded in exactly the way I think Thorney wanted. That second half performance from Bazza was superb. Perre also had the dissappointment of not starting, and came on to do a job at right back without a word of protest.Playing up front in the second half, he looked sharp, linked up well with Baz, Simon, Bobby in such a way we actually looked better WITHOUT Dean on the pitch!! Again, I think it was a performance that Thorney was looking for, especially the cut back for Bobby's goal,well played.
So let's carry on with that, I know we all get wound up, especially if we're not playing well, but surely after 10 years we are used to not playing well all the time by now! I love coming down, and can't envisage a time when it will feel like a chore, we rebuilt our bridges with the Dutch, maybe we can get Southside back onside too?
