Slough Town vs Torquay United

Very good read and just a few snippets:

"On this occasion, a decent flick on from George Essuman found Jamie Reid at the back stick. The local lad, born in Torbay, couldn’t find the bet though. In fact, he couldn’t even find the goal line, as somehow, from two yards out, he managed to put it so wide, the next action was a Slough Town throw in."

"As the rebound dropped, surely Reid would bury the chance, but no – with the goal at his mercy and Turner off-balance, Reid managed to slice his shot with all the finesse of a drunk toddler wearing snow shoes, and the ball flew wildly off target."

"Torquay’s was that none of their players could shoot. Either the kit man needed to replace their Toblerone boots"

"Next up it was the chance for substitute Bobson Bawling to have a go at this shooting lark, but he proved to be just as ineffective as his teammates."

"Both sides were dogged by an inability to finish, and for Torquay this is a problem which will need to be solved, and quickly. The rearguard looks solid, with four big, strong players, all of whom can read the play, and only one goal conceded this season is testament to the defensive set up. Kyle Cameron was the most eye catching of the group today, but the whole quarter impressed. In front of them Ryan Dickson (who was probably my man of the match today) and Asa Hall were an effective midfield partnership, whilst Sami Nabi added a nice spark when he got on the ball in space. They were lacking up front though, and none of Williams, Reid, or the substitutes Banton and Bawling really looked confident inside the box. Eight points from five games, with only three goals scored, isn’t a particularly good look for one of the division’s biggest clubs, who have remained full time. On top of that, some audible “Owers out” chants from the travelling supporters won’t have gone down well in the dugout."

Great Reid er Read (no pun intended).

I have a genius plan.

Owers has to tell his forwards NOT TO SCORE and to tell them to aim to the outside of the goal.
That way we may get some scuffed shots that actually end up in the bloody net!
