Blyth (3-0-0, 3rd BSBN) vs Stafford (0-1-2, 20th BSBN)
We're a slight 5:4 favorite at home against one of the clubs that just promoted up, the first meeting of the two sides during my tenure. We'll start out 4-4-1-1 Attacking to try to avoid the need for another comeback.

GK: McDonald
D: Deen-Conteh, Kerr, Seidu, Groves
M: Musungu, Paratore, Smyth, Moke
F: Baker, Rickard
Subs: (Paul, Shulton, Cofie, Ahmed, Dovey)

2' - McDonald saves and holds
8' - Musungu suddenly goes down, we have to Sub Shulton
22' - Baker corner to Seidu far post, just barely turned aside, nice chance
27' - Rickard nice run, feeds Shulton but he shoots horribly wide
43' - Paratore feeds Shulton, shoots even more horribly wide

Halftime: Meh, double meh even. We encourage them to push on, order the ball to be worked into the box, maybe we can hit something in close.

49' - A more aggressive Stafford this half, they hit the upright
58' - Seidu heads another corner just over
59' - Sub Ahmed (for Groves, exhausted) ... shift Seidu to DR, Smyth to DC, Paratore to AMC, Baker to MC
60' - Switch to Counter
66' - Paratore misses a shot high
73' - Corner to the near post, headed to the far post (0-1)... switch to Attacking
77' - Ahmed shoots high
83' - Moke is denied in a scramble at the goal
84' - Switch to Overload
85' - Paratore shoots from beyond the arc, punched out .. Ahmed on the rebound ... GOAL ! (1-1) ... switch to Counter
89' - 2 minutes added

Full time: Blyth 1 - Stafford 1
We should have won that match, on paper, we make that clear to the team. They should have won that match, in fairness, on the pitch. We stole a point flat out. Deen-Conteh is MOM 7.4

Musungu will miss 2-3 weeks with a thigh strain suffered while striking a ball early in the match.
