If an outfield player makes a mistake, it will probably not always result in a scoring opportunity. If a goalkeeper makes a mistake, it is probably going to give the opposition a real goal scoring chance. In my opinion, McDonald is a competent goalkeeper for this level of football.

Great team goal in the first half, Little and Wright linked up really well. Not wanting to disagree about the tiredness but to me it didn't really look like a physical issue, we had dominated the first half completely (and probably should have put the game out of sight) but when we came out for the second half we seemed to go into our shell, Eastleigh countered and hit us hard on the break and we lost our shape for a while. We seemed to be back on an even footing when the pen was given, will be interesting to see it back as it looked very soft and the ref turned away before apparently changing his mind. Second goal I missed as I turned away when Macdonald seemed to have caught it, can only presume he dropped it into his own net. Both teams had late chances but a disappointing result as I really felt we were the better team. Little was excellent (please can someone else take corners though), good vision and passing throughout, I thought Martin was great and we tore them apart down the left in the first half. Centre backs were very strong too, no-one really had a bad game so a shame to lose to two individual errors (ref and keeper). Wright was a threat but doesn't look quite back to his old self, CLE had a good game although not everything quite came off for him. Felt we went a bit too negative but easy to say afterwards as 0-1 at half time against a decent team I suppose it made sense, we definitely had chances in the first half which would have put the game to bed.
