Review
Not a great day today, despite the second half fight-back. We conceded very quick in goals in the first-hlaf nad that seems to be a thing this season. But hey, we're still third, no-one else in the top five won, and we still have a four-point cushion ahead of fight place with, hopefully, a fairly easy run-in.
