It pretty much mirrors what I was hearing last night etc, I am pleased Toure impressed as he had kinda been the forgotten man, the second half in particular he seems to have been very good. As for young McDonnell I think we all have to realise that he has gone a long long time without any real football to speak of so it is going to take him time to get fully up to speed, despite their advancing years Wellens & Chaplow are experienced, wily characters so he was up against a couple of tricky opponents. I am sure his time will come and he will be a real asset to the club.

I was so pleased for Alabi to get off to a flying start, as you say he could well assume cult hero status if he continues in the same vein, fans love a striker as we all know. I think last night kind of confirms why Jonathon Douglas has been preferred to Giles Coke despite not having played any pre season football, for me Douglas is quality while Coke boosts the quantity, when Bru & Bishop are fit Coke won't even make the bench but as a back up he is fine, unfortunately that is one Coke that seems to have lost its fizz !
Agree entirely about Coke. I remember reading a few weeks ago on Sporting Life that he had a week's trial with Blackburn who decided not to offer him a deal - couldn't understand why we signed him a couple of weeks later
