Enzio been looking good last few matches so why drop him today? - if he is not fully fit then he shouldn't be on the bench!

And that's why he should be on the bench Banjo

As I said earlier great option to bring on in the 2nd when needed.

Didn't watch today so daren't comment on the game.

5 games unbeaten, 3 consecutive clean sheets, 3rd in the league - plenty to be positive about.

That was the worst attacking performance of the season at home, but we restricted them to one chance from a long throw. Kudos to the back four (Ben Turner did what he does best - got his head on the ball every time) and Enzio, who proved the difference once he came on. He was on the bench due to fatigue (not the only one who looked tired), but had a highly effective 30 minutes. And JOB probably did more in 20 minutes than Ruben in the previous 70.

Strength in depth is going to be crucial with this run of games. We need to get the likes of Thomas, McCrory, Roberts and Lacey back ASAP, but God knows what the story is with Wolfe. Not even in the squad again today. Strange one.

Finally, well done DKE - another reliable performance out of position and actually produced an excellent cross at one point with his left foot.

There is, we didn't look great doing it but we should have scored more than one and Slocombe didn't have a save to make.
Mind you, Stockport and Torquay don't look like blowing up so we have to keep winning.

NA explains that one in the post match interview. Apparently he got Covid at the end of the club's Covid crisis and then he's been playing catch-up after missing 20+ days instead of 10 due to self-isolation.

Certainly from watching I wouldn't say we were poor today, yes there was some sloppy passing and tempo wasn't great but their a decent side. Defended well, but wouldn't say we were totally under the cosh that much as we definitely had the better chances, wins like this are a very good sign. Ardley as honest as always and like the fact he recognised they were struggling to move the ball as well and went more direct.

You mean he had a plan b?
