    Missed first goal running up to ground after being late with little un. Heard a cheer for a missed shot and then a corner so i set my camera going outside as i thought oooh well score here and we did! Lol

    Thought we absolutely smashed them off the park. They wont know whats hit them tonight. Ref did his best to level it up but these lads dont know when they are beat and we got what we deserved.

    I was worried when we took watkins off as we might have sat too deep but get in there. Payne caused them problems with his unorthodox style. Great cut nack for hammell and then great awareness for scowens goal.

    Only negative tonight was i think bradshaw is struggling if im honest. Hes not a taget man but playing the lone striker role a lot.

    If we could get fletcher we could be dangerous!

    Keep it up reds! Very proud and happy tonight.

    Totally disagree about Bradshaw. Doing his striker responsibilitys well. Not his fault his team mates are hellbent on pumping long balls upto someone who's 5 foot 3.play balls along ground n let him get beyond defenders. Just before he got subbed Watkins floats a ball up in air when Bradshaws sandwiched inbetween 2 6ft+ defenders. Smash it along 6yd box & give him half a chance

    hes not fitting into the system we are playing and its the only area i thought we were a little weak. not going to dwell on it - its his first time at this level. he can improve and i don't want to look at the negatives so much after what was a brilliant performance.

    Bradshaw needs to up his game a bit but I'm sure he's going to do so. We also need to start playing to his strengths.

    Bradshaw's a good player but he's spent all last season playing as a lone forward & needs to get used to playing in a 2 for us, it'll come.

    All we can do is trust every single one of the players and staff at our fantastic club after these last 2 results. We may be onto something here as we didn't just smash and grab either of the 3 points which is the impressive part. Tom will up his game with fitness and when he settles. Also Hecky signed him so I trust that he will turn him into a good player at this level.

    It's so refreshing to believe in everything and everyone at OUR club.

    COYR!

    Was superb entertainment. We should have been 2-3 up at half time.

    Inevitable they were going to come back in the second half, but we thoroughly deserved victory.

    JFH is a sore loser. How he can be critical of the ref when they got 2 penalties & had only one other clear cut effort (their free kick that hit the bar) I do not know.

    Going to be an entertaining season, full of twists & turns.

    If Robbo had have been sent off for the first penalty, that would have left us a problem, with no experienced CB to come on, so I hope we are going to get cover in there.

    I thought Payne did excellent. Great player to bring on for the last half hour, as will give any tired CB a full workout.

    Big question is whether we can hang on to Conor. He's on fire.
