Well done, lads!
Great result - keep it going!
What was the gate?
Excellent performance and result, a great day of football in Northwich!
Spectacular goal from Pritch, amazed he could get his leg so high at his age 
I thought our midfield was the difference today, over the last few games they have started to battle and bond really well. Henry, Broadhead and Heler all put a terrific amount of effort in. Ryan’s distribution was a bit of in the first half, he had done the hard work to win the ball and then was not finding his man, but to his credit he was a lot more accurate in the second half with a few really smart paces. Henry and Heler both deserved their goals. 3-0 and not a striker on the scoresheet, it shows how well they played in midfield from box to box.
Neville and Adams both need to be a little more cautious with their challenges but again their workrate was excellent. A clean sheet for Pritch and Ruffer who were just neat and tidy all afternoon.
Sheffield have not lost many games or conceded many goals so a 3-0 win speaks for itself. I actually don’t think them going down to 10 men had much bearing on the result given our performance before the dismissal. Their left back had to go, two bad challenges with 5 minutes of each other, gave the referee no choice. The ref was pretty ‘card happy’ as it was so there was no alternative than to send him off.
If we play the same on Tuesday night then we can certainly give Matlock a game, it would be nice to get Kidderminster at home and get some further cup profits, albeit smaller than the neighbours at least we get to keep ours!

Great win well done lads
good incisive football could easily have been 2 or 3 more but for their keeper who made a couple of very smart saves to keep the score down to three.
A very well deserved 3 points.
The team is making excellent progress and I think one or two who were calling players and manager should take note and draw breath before hitting the keyboard!!!
Very good win today, very good performance all round . no need to analyze too much today , its in black and white 3-0 win against the top club . Things are starting to look promising and this is a happy club.
An excellent game and great result.
Just what you want when you bring along a mate for his first Witton experience!
Good to beat the league leaders 3-0!
Great result.
A little bit disappointing to remain in 5th though. All of the teams above also won (with the obvious exception of Sheffield :laugh: ).
Were there any Lincoln fans there after their fantastic victory earlier on?
