I've got a bit of time to kill so I'd thought I'd do some ratings for yesterdays match at Mansfield.

Dimi 8 , made a couple of good saves and seemed more commanding in the box than he sometimes does.

Barron 8 solid as a rock, seems to be turning back the clock recently.

Liddle 8 solid as another rock with the added bonus that he can play the ball too.

Clark 8 solid as a rock and showed plenty of passion and commitment.

Ritchie 8 yet another one who was solid as a rock and just gets better and better, same as Ben for passion and commitment

Eiffion 3 don't know what happened there 'cos he's been getting better and better recently, he was outstanding on Saturday but yesterday seemed slow to react, sluggish and backed away from a few challenges, I hope it was just a one off !!!

Boland M.O.M 9 completely ran our midfield, was everywhere and never stopped running and getting stuck in, just gets better and 'betterer'.

Sweeney 4 only marginally better than Eiffion, he just didn't get involved enough in the 1st half, got slightly better in the 2nd, did a lot of running but most of it was like a headless chicken, get more involved Tony, you know you can.

Monkhouse 7 another good performance, and a good follow up to the second rebound,sign him up.

Duffy 7 another player who worked hard and chased every ball, break the bank to sign him.

Brown 8 an excellent game from the young'un in conditions that weren't exactly made for him, still a bit easilly knocked off the ball sometimes but he did well yesterday.

Daly 7 he did okay when he came on and won us the penner.

The fans 10 a great turnout on New Years Day in stinking weather.

Ritchie Barker 7 I think he would be a decent signing for us.

KEEP THE FAITH

As opposed to innocent pedestrians eh Dave??

I'd agree with most of that Mr Codyakker but don't know what Wilson sees in Barker.I made a point of watching his movement yesterday and was not impressed.Also expected him to get on the end of a few crosses but was eased out of most by the excellent Clark and Liddle. :sweet:

Williams and Sweeney were quiet - apart from that we looked ok-thought Brown had a good

Highlight was the can can after the goal led by topless Spike
