Maybe it's because I'm a Crowley fan boy but I didn't see anyone else in their team threatening to open us up like he did a couple of times.Quote:

The only things that make me a bit cautious are that a) MK were dire, the worst team weve played all season. And b) we did rely to a great degree on moments of individual brilliance to win the game. Weve done that all season to be fair, but to get to where we need to be it is very likely we are going to have to beat someone good.
Accurate and true.Quote:

Expect one or more of these to be highlighted once we draw or lose at Colchester on that cabbage patch
There?s a lot when you sit back and realise some of the stuff he has done. Integrated new back 3 and keeper not used to playing out. As good as George Abbott is Maynard must have played a part in improving his confidence and game awareness.Quote:

He?s not perfect but he has done some good stuff for me.
Individual brilliance is often the difference between success and failure.Quote:

I?d argue we?ve got to where we are despite not having all of our ?moments of brilliance? players available.
Either way, I?m happy we are up there fighting for a place in L1.
It?s what we?ve missed at home, game changers as I call them when teams sit back, you 100% need them.Quote:
