Patterson - Good to have him back. Thought he could’ve done better for the 1st goal but was faultless for the rest of the match. Great penalty save - 7.5

Brindley - His usual composed self - 7

Lacey - Had his hands full with Mullin (who looks a real player). Kept to his task well - 7

Cameron - Great captains display. So important to us - 8

Chicksen - Not a natural full back but he is so classy. Got an assist as well 7.5

Richardson - What a difference he has made. A constant threat going forwards and getting better each game, well deserved goal - 8

Francis - Had a difficult start at Notts but yesterday showed what a player he could turn out to be. Composed, good passing range, continuously popped up in the right areas. There was pressure on him to perform and he did - 7

Vincent - A bit of a scattered performance but his running and energy was immense. I don’t think he receives the ball too well but he is always looking to get forward and join attacks, a dangerous and important player for us now - 7

Palmer - Quite simply MOTM every week whether he is chosen by the sponsors or not. No longer have to point out what he does for us, I was relieved he wasn’t one who had covid - 8

Wootton - One of his best displays for us I think. Dreaded seeing him step up for the penalty with his past record but put it away nicely. Looks like he’s lost a bit of weight too actually and looked better for it. Linked up play beautifully and kept cajoling and encouraging the team - 8

Mitchell - Should have had a goal against his name for the handball but he was was barely involved other than that. He just never seems to be ‘there’. Replaced for a concussion at half time for the enigma himself, Eli Sam - 6.5

Sam - Like I said, an enigma. Missed two good opportunities to score and got himself an early booking…BUT…there was something there yesterday we hadn’t seen too often. Some lovely touches and control, good movement and a sign that he does know how to use his physicality. Can we yet get a tune from him? What plus that would be - 6.5

A massive win yesterday but we must remember it was against ten men for 80 minutes. Who knows how it would’ve panned out otherwise. We did, however, control the game and spread the play ever so well, and we all know that playing against ten men isn’t always as easy as it sounds.
