Osude has been electric
F136 a seat for all seasons; but sadly not 2019/20 as it didn’t happen.

Final whistle, job's a good 'un. Could do with playing our second halves first as well.

better beginning of the season possible? only better if less goals against and more for, but nonetheless, we should be happy anyway...

As said in my first comment don 't know how Berry gets a starting role, if he is on loan please send him back and get someone with some commitment  to the team.

Both goals scored by substitutes. We didn't start with our strongest 11 but I suppose it's starters and finishers these days.
Anyway, great result.

2 defence better with kengi
3 berry and sewing should not start
4 Rees and Mellor not target men
5osude is a world beater...potential scored one made one
6 Ross is the better keeper
7 cant play as badly as this every first half
8 4 g pit hs are not good

Worthing had a lot going for them today - noisy crowd right up to pitchside, artifical pitch, and the confidence booster of a win at Carlisle.
So this was a BIG win for us.

That dreadful pitch must be awful to play on. Shows how lucky we are to have our pitch at TNL.

I'd prefer to see us starting with a line up based around those who are performing well, but really enjoying the way we've pulled it out of the hat twice now with great second half performances.
 
Pleased to see Rees get a goal. Given the chance I think he could do very well for us.

Three points on the road very acceptable. We really have to stop giving away early goals and to do that we need an old fashioned defender to organise the defence.
 
Berry is a lost soul and I’m not sure we can spend anymore game time on his rehab.

Osude is unbelievable but can only do that for 35 mins and it’s probably better to use him when the game is more open. Etaluku is definitely better at RW and Kenghi looks to have improved in close season.

That 3G pitch is a huge advantage for Worthing. Perhaps Boreham  Wood benefited from theirs last season too?
 
Although Rush, Brunt & Abdulmalik shared all the goals assists in their 3-1 away win.
 
Next week will be a better test of where we really are.

A game of two halves….again.  Once we used our pace they couldn’t cope with us.  Osude is something else but overall some good performances.  As for the officials the less said the better, booking only FGR players and coach, failure to spot obvious offsides and a fourth official who took over five minutes to work the board.  Absolutely useless!
