Bradley Bauress 15 goals in 27 appearances.
16 unbeaten at home.
It was good to see our full side out, a bit of rust to shake off but way too good for Dundas and his motley crew, Bauress was an inspiration again and my MOM ! not at our flowing best but Newcastle were third before today ? I wouldnt mind seeing Prince Heywood move in the middle with Williams and moving Owen out wide, think we would have more bite in midfield then although Owen might not provide enough cover to the full back ? maybe a signing still required ? A good win and gets us back on track 2 away games to cope with now lets hope we can stay fit. UTA
Another 3 points against yet another team who faught hard to try to win and not just park the bus. Was thinking to myself that it would make a change to keep eleven on the pitch all match, when Steve Tames decided to assault a Town player in retaliation,( I think it’s Tom Daly’s coach), scored a 9.5 from me for the reverse dive. Luckily it only earned a yellow, but as is so often the case the original kick off the ball went unpunished.Agree with CJ’s choice for MOM, just wish the lad would score more :whistle:
The Linesman must have been blind not to see the original foul, happened right in front of him. And did it not occur to either official that they had missed something when Tames reacted as he did? Same thing happened at Chester. The Ref I can forgive, the Linesman should retire. Great win though. Two away wins and we will really be in the mix and that might bring in more than the 310 present today.
