25' 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 Ben Wiles suffering a number of foals already.

64' The whistle greets Jamie McDonnell as he departs to be replaced by Gatlin O'Donkor.
69' The supporters are chanting for Nathaniel Mendez-Laing. He replaces Aaron Collins on 69 minute.
