Gate not too bad for a Tuesday night with footy on TV and very few from Yeovil, and the Clayton End were on top form all night.

Twas me Mike!
Crooks' goal remInded me of some of the powerful shots of Bobby Charlton at his best. One of those thunderous 'rising' shots that are just unstoppable. He also had an excellent game tonight and avoided getting booked too!
The final scoreline flattered them somewhat as we were pretty dominant all over the pitch. Seamus Coneely controlled the midfield superbly. Bucko was always getting forward and causing them problems. Billy was simply superb tonight and I would have made him MOM!
The two young lads at the back did well and looked like regular league two players. Although their distribution could have been a little better as I felt they gave away too many throw ins and Yeovil had one of those 'long throw' specialists!
Windass' goal was superbly set up with some wonderful interpassing play and finished of with 'Panache' by Josh with the outside of his foot!...That's another ZERO added on to his value!
The quality of our passing and penetration was awesome tonight but I still reckon that Coley will give the team some stick as he would have wanted our lads to have despatched Yeovil with a bigger scoreline!
Overall though a very pleasing night at the WHAM stadium! Other results could have gone a bit better for us but we continue our upward progress in the division.
Support was great tonight and the Clayton End was in good voice which helped to create a great atmosphere.

ON STANLEY ON
