Guess who forgot it was an early kick-off in the last game?

It will be interesting to see what team is put out tonight. With injuries, non-available players, it will be pretty much the first team anyway. Obviously, as I've been banging on about him, I'd like to see McLoughlin given a start. Hopefully, Cole get a goal and kick-start his season.

Intriguing to see at this time of the season how our L1 superstars perform against lower L2 opposition

Bedeau
Fane
Rawson

No Stockton and not a full bench?

Great start. Big deflection from their defender, bouncing nicely to Mayor to slot home on two minutes.

Ahh! There is a God after all!

Everton under 21 are 2-0 up at Hartlepool.

How does this affect us ?

Pretty sure it means we have to win, or at least draw and win pens

What a shite goal to concede. Have to do better.

Poor defending, then they came close to a second. We started brightly, but have switched off in the last few minutes. Harrogate looked very poor, but suddenly well on top.

On top for 25 mins then shocking defending

I was just about to write that we are playing a completely changed, young Harrogate side and not exactly dominating when they scored. We certainly need to get stuck in now. I think our players thought it was going to be a walkover.

Couple of good chances since but they are decent on the break !

Last 10 mins been poor

We are poor. Spot the League 1 side! They are playing their reserves and they are showing us up.

Wouldnt go that far Danny

Phillips had 2 decent chances

Has Stockton spat his dummy out again, not even on the bench.

Hartlepool 0 Everton u21s 4 after 40 mins

We just need draw and we are through

I had hoped to see some real commitment from our ‘fringe’ players, hoping to impress Derek for a first team start. But we don’t seem to be putting ourselves about enough. The early goal seemed to inspire them more than us. Hoping for a better second half.

Smith has been pretty poor at the back. Not sure what he's doing.

Watching on I follow its been quite a decent game

Where are we going to get goals from? Very little attacking play from us this half. Maybe the subs can improve things, hopefully!

After a bright start, we've been poor and really, Harrogate should be out of sight by now. A real struggle so far.

We can’t string two passes together. Can’t see how we will score. It is so frustrating to watch.
