[Pendle Red]

Great first half but the goal before half-time gave Barnet that bit of impetus going into the Break and it was backs to the wall in the second half for Stanley and despite an onslaught we hung on for three valuable points.

At this stage of the season it's more about points than anything else and it almost felt after a week of not good news that somebody had lifted a monkey off the back of the Club.

Taking each game as it comes and not looking to far ahead is key now, to follow yesterday up with a win on Tuesday is critical.
