gutted to miss this one; one of the closest League grounds to me, but still not recovered from nasty virus. And its not available live on ifollow in the UK either as its Saturday 3pm. Boo!

We are going to find out pretty soon whether the Jevani Brown absence a) seriously damages our goal creativity and/or b) damages team morale/spirit. Real challenges for the manager to overcome.

I think point (a) it goes without saying that Jevani's absence seriously damages our goal creativity as he's one of the leagues highest assist players, and point (b) I doubt its damaged team morale, certainly not to have a negative effect on matchday performance

Agree on point (b) as we are looking at potentially a very different line up now.

Re Jev Brown…
Some stats I’ve been collating ahead of tomorrow’s game (I’m on commentary duty for Radio Devon)…

In the 24 league games he’s started we’ve amassed 36 points at 1.5 a game

In the five games he hasn’t we’ve managed just 2 points at 0.4 a game.

it’s a small sample size without him, granted, but it’s still pretty plain reading…
Hopefully the new faces will help redress that balance in the coming weeks 🤞

Think we should consider the fact that we've won 4 away games in our last 5 before overreacting to a narrow home defeat.

Sounds like you think JB is not important ?

JB is critical. However, our manager now has to find a way without him through hard work on the training pitch. One thing we do have particularly away from home is the ability to break quickly and in Stanno, Mitchell and Caprice we have three of the quickest players so we have to substitute our way of playing with Jevani for one of pace on the counter
