Yes I know, a really crap pun, but I was struggling for a by line.
A third successive away win, one hundred per cent record on the road intact, and another positive post based on the spirit and winning mentality of the team.
What really impressed me with Chris Powells selection was with Benson on his way apparently and BWP injured he kept with Green out wide and pushed Wagstaff forward. I've often wondered whether (with his slight lack of crossing prowess but a definite eye for goal) whether this may turn out to be his best position. I remember Paul Wash back in our last third division promotion campaign being played as an out and out striker alongside Hales.
Going in one nil down at half time would have proved a problem over recent seasons, but self belief and the tenacity to not give up again showed the Sir Chris has put a very strong group of players together.
With Benson's exit (by the way it is a shame he does not fit into the current plans as he was always a hard working player and considering the players he had around him gave a half decent return of goals) I expect to see one more striker signed as back up with Waggy taking his place on the bench as a potential super sub/utility player coming on as striker, attacking midfielder or winger where needed.
Looking forward to Monday night.
