Well after a good start we lost to a really confident good footballing side but the lack of bench quality was probably the final decider. Many, myself included have said we are four experienced or better quality players short in this squad and it showed today. They made three subs and all three added something to their team and kept them on the up, none of our three subs, two albeit late subs, made one bit of difference. O’Malley never a full back as the second half showed and Whitehouse and Carver came on too late and also added nothing. Maybe Hill was reluctant to sub unless forced too with Ntlhe injured at half time because he knows the position we are in squad quality wise. Nuttall was a big plus for me today from last season, fit at last he scored two and provided an assist for Daniel in a good display. We need to keep him fit and get the squad bulked up or else we will struggle, fair play to Solihull, you can see why they are one of the divisions top sides on today’s showing. Sack Hill ? not for me, let him get four more players in and let them gel together as the season goes along and maybe we can squeeze a mid table finish which will do me. Four games in, squad incomplete, now not a time for knee jerk reactions IMO.
