Didn't realise Gary Henshaw dropped into non-league at the age of 26

Need to be more clinical, but apart from that...pretty pretty pretty good.

Is this the Evatt-ball I've been hearing so much about? Absolute quality that half.

71.9% possession
70% passing accuracy in the final third (85% overall)
8 shots to 1
but the only one on target (from either side) is Doyler's pengy

Having two outballs both wings on a wide pitch is very useful. Declan John is like Roberto Carlos at this level and Jones/Isgrove combining well. MJ superb, Tomo probably the weakest link at the moment but he’s been fine. Dapo started to find a bit of space but his shooting needs some work. Sarce would probably add something in the box I suspect.

Indeed, however, given the amount of solidly overhit passes I think a few need to remember that they're playing on a decent pitch.
May the bridges I burn light your way

Personally I think we can play much better yet, but for now I'd be perfectly content with getting a two-goal cushion for only the second time in 15 games.

And then get the win - as it stands we'd be two points off 7th. And 6th. And 5th. And only four points off the automatics...

MJ Williams for me looks really classy. The midfield player we’ve been crying out for.

Was just going to say, every game he impresses me even more than the last game, and I've liked the way he does what he does from the start.

Surprised Doyler didn't try to find a corner there

Get in baps
But yes we’ve started the second half in the usual fashion
And I don’t fancy our chances at set pieces

All over the place now. Need an outlet. I’d have Isgrove off for Arthur personally.
