Two Minutes With... Woking

The Bees were hoping to make it six wins out of six under Uli and Dick at the weekend. Standing in their way were Woking and Cards fan Jacob (@JGreenwood91) is the latest to give his thoughts, in two minutes with.

Pre-match

How did you get to the game?

I came via train and tube. Driving would have been quicker, however the high car parking fee put myself and a few others off

What did you make of The Hive?

The best ground I have visited this season. Getting to the ground was easy, having a bar just for away fans was great and having the option of standing or seating is also rare in this league so that was good to have the choice

Match

What did you make of the game?

It was a very end-to-end affair. All of the Woking fans I talked to before the game expected to lose on Saturday and were impressed that we could compete and win. Finishing from both sides was poor at times but for the level we are playing at it was a very good standard of football

Who (from either side) impressed you?

Weston took his goal very well and brought pace to the game at times. Woking’s midfield was impressive and had to do a lot of defending and get the ball forward quickly to enable a counter attack. Both John Goddard, who won the penalty, and Josh Payne, who scored the opener, had good games for Woking

Who (from either side) could have done better?

Woking’s back four look nervous at times and could have prevented the Barnet goal so I would say McNerney, Ricketts and Howe as they were all at fault for the goal. I think Barnet underperformed as a team and all could have been better. They did create chances but they weren’t converted so I would say the strikers could have done more

Post-match

Was the score line a fair reflection on the game?

Yes, I think it was. Woking played well and although Barnet had chances to equalise, Woking scored their third following a good team move and deserved the victory

Who do you play next and how do you think you’ll do?

Our current form reads – WLWLWLW

So on that basis, we will probably lose our next match, which is at home to Southport. They have been on a good run of form of late but I am confident we can get something out of the game
