Indeed, thoroughly enjoyed last night and whilst I agree that we shouldn’t be getting ahead of ourselves, let’s enjoy it while we can!

A pretty entertaining and comprehensive win last night. Some of the football we played was excellent!

Having gone 1 nil down completely against the run of play I always felt we'd go on and win the game even after falling behind.

We looked a threat from set pieces all evening, whether that was corners, long throw or free kicks. With the likes of Jacko, Bowen, Dolman, Collard and Lorraine, we have a lot of fire power to enable us to score plenty of goals from set pieces this season! It may not always be pretty but if you have those type of tools at your disposal you may as well use them. The Collard headed goal was a brilliantly rehearsed routine.

Obviously not getting too far ahead of myself, but 2 games in and 2 wins on the board, against teams who you'd imagine would be at the wrong end of the table come the end of the season is a nice solid start. If nothing more it installs some confidence that we should have more than enough to maintain our status at this level.
