[Three of Diamonds]

With a few personnel changes it took our team 45 minutes to find out how to play together , but once we did there were ( in spells) some great passing and movement.

Let's not dress it up, the first half was absolutely awful. The amount of passes that went astray, giving possession away constantly was bonkers. The only positive was Sam Johnson who looked bright.

Second half the difference was like night and day. We were on top from the first minute to the last. The sending off changed the game a little bit and to be honest I thought it was a bit harsh as Ben Diamond was never getting to the ball. After that there was only one winner.

The lad who got sent off was really impressive and doing a more than decent job of marshalling Tom Lorraine. With him going off it allowed Tom the space to grab himself a couple of goals. This is surely on course to be his most prolific season for us which is so impressive considering he's played at Step 5 and 4 when in theory it should have been far easier to score goals. We're certainly playing to his strength's at the moment though.

Thought we responded to their red card really well, took a firm grip of the game straight away and caused them lots of problems all through the second half. They had a couple of useful attaching players (the 7 & 10) but Bully was back to his best and it was good to see Sam Brown return and Curtis impress in the final third after the break too.

[Adrian]

You cant always win and play well so I'm happy with that, we had good spells and a few others got some game time so extra pleased that we got the points. Well done all!
