- 31' The travelling Morecambe FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 36' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. George Edmundson made 14 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 88' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Caleb Watts suffering a number of foals already.
- Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 4-0.
