Player Ratings v York

[crazyfists]

Match Ratings:

Slocombe - 6.5 - Nothing much to do as they only had one shot but claimed crosses well
Brindley - 8 - Very good both on and off the ball, heard a York fan say afterwards he was good
Rawlinson - 7 - Strong in defence
Cameron - 7 - As above, brought it out well. Still not up to last seasons standards though
Chicksen - 6.5 - Defended well but cut back too many times and missed a sitter. Still wasn't bad just steady
Nemane - 7.5 - Very good, is growing with confidence and good assist for the 2nd goal
Palmer - 8 - Brilliant all game, very controlled and comfortable on the ball
JOB - 7 - Very steady, brought the ball through well from midfield into attack. Always feel with JOB on that he will keep them going
Ruben - 6.5 - Pressed well and still did most things well. He's just a bit out of sorts with his final action but only as we're used to his brilliance
Castro - 9 - Fantastic goal, created a lot of great openings for himself or others. Final ball sometimes a bit hard but York couldn't handle him
Macca - 8.5 - Positioning for the 1st great, the 2nd you never thought he'd miss and always creates the angle for the shot. Love this guy

The subs I don't think did much of note as after our 3rd it kind of fizzled out. Would be happy to be corrected on the subs actions though.

Team and Manager - 9 - Would be a ten apart from going flat in the first half for 20 minutes when they scored. Apart from that a fantastic performance and afternoon for everyone involved. I love the way we now press from the front and actually feel like we say to the other team - We're here, we're a top team and you're going to have to really be at it to give us a good game. We don't feel like pushovers anymore or that we are going to fanny about with it. Williams has taken us to the next level and demands perfection as any manager worth his salt should do. I don't understand people saying we'll be 3rd, Wrexham will be there obviously but if I were Chesterfield I'd be worried about us not the other way round. Wrexham fans are apparently also of that opinion, we play great football and are strong now instead of weak. We look a top team at last in this league.

Notts fans - 10 - also great, was hard to make full use of numbers for songs as being split over 2 stands, not fans fault.
