Dire first half. It's like we had no clue what to do when a team plays over our press rather than tries to play out. Second half was better, but we gave ourselves too much to do. Not helped by a ref who didn't punish timewasting, dissent or the ball going out of play but we had to play better #bcafc

We've been superb. Great attacking football and two goals. Metcalfe has been hugely impressive since he came on and Power is generally excellent. Defensively we've limited Barnsley to a couple of corners and arguably the best goal I've ever seen live. Not much we can really do about that #bcafc

OK, so the calmest analysis I can manage for that half is as follows:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Bobby Pointon, he's one of our own! #bcafc

That was a very hard fought win - Wimbledon are a difficult side for us to face because they're hard to break down and very effective at just going over our press and countering quickly. But we showed great heart and took our opportunities when they came. Superb. #bcafc

Another cup game, another superb half. Stoke have not coped with our energy and pressing so far and we've taken full advantage. Nice to have a reminder of how good Brad Halliday is too #bcafc

That was outstanding. Can't remember such a difference between the first half and second half of a game. Good subs and tactical changes from Alexander and incredible heart, fight, and ability from the team. And, of course, Super Sam Walker in goal! #bcafc

On the plus side, we're only a goal down - but we've been absolutely outclassed. Stockport have been very, very good, moving the ball quickly and pressing well, but we've been poor. Just a bit too slow to close down early on, then resorting to aimless hoof. #bcafc

I'm getting worryingly optimistic about our chances this season - we look good, particularly against bigger teams who want to play. We're organised at the back and press brilliantly, & the front three is working well. Hope nobody in the Championship notices how well Bobby Pointon is playing #bcafc

That was absolutely magnificent. Never gave Blackburn a moment's peace and they couldn't get past us once we got the lead. Touray & Swan did not stop all night, Metcalfe was superb. Was worried when Wright went off but Tilt was great and if they got past him they weren't getting past Walker. #bcafc

Well that was a game of football (allegedly) that happened. Marginally the better side and a bit unlucky with the Tilt chance but I'm happy enough with four points from two games #bcafc

Can't fault the clarity of Labour's message on protest. There are BAD protesters who must be punished (Irish musicians, anti-genocide vicars) and there are GOOD protesters whose views deserve respect (masked thugs with petrol bombs trying to start a pogrom)

That was excellent - organised defensively, energetic in the press and dangerous going forward. Wycombe started neat and tidy but are rushing things now because of how well we close down. Front three all impressive but Neufville has been the standout so far. #bcafc
