McNulty

John Rooney and Ollie Banks

Rooney missed a fair few

Whoever is our penalty taker needs to take the half time Little Tony's challenge for practice
When they went down to 10 men and sat back we looked a bit clueless for a while but we kept going and got the result . Onwards and upwards

The pen was decent, keeper chose the right side and made a great save.

Aside from the very hard-earned last-gasp win, the thing that really lit me up today was a comment made by Adam Murray when asked about his thoughts beforehand on Marriott who was going to be missing the game and he said he was pleased! In fact he managed to sound delighted about one of our stars being missing today! I can think of some top managers that have had a twisted psychology, the likes of Bill Shankly and Brian Clough leaping immediately to mind. When I say "twisted psychology" it's meant as a compliment I can assure you. These people come out with things that might shock, might amuse, but who nevertheless provide a surprise and rational alternative perspective that might be overlooked and go unseen by most. Murray found the positive in Marriott's impending absence. I like it. Long may he continue to find the hidden windows of light. It's a change from doom-mongering and catastrophising.

In Murray's interview with Adam after the game he also forgot that Harper scored or first goal! He actually said that Rakeem had a good game but didn't score today! Adam corrected him.

4 pages after winning 4 on the bounce, surely we need to moan about the pitch cutting up and players slipping? And them subs were far too late! And how come when it went 2-1 we didn’t put the floodlights on?

Mooney seems to be an absolute diamond. I was worried when other clubs spoke on his attiutde but same as seb he seems to be fully buying in to the cause. Long may it continue! Superb result again bluebirds

It’s frustrating that no matter how good we are from here on, the best we are likely to do is 2nd, as Boreham Wood look unstoppable. This is where only one guaranteed promotion place becomes a problem. Early days yet - if we beat BW home and away, who knows!

Wait for the fat lady. Remember Walsall who were 7 points clear at the top of EFL2 at New Year and failed to make the automatic places and lost the playoffs.

I had forgotten that. We play Boreham Wood at Holker Street on 5 December so maybe we can start the rot then!

Currently we aren’t bad at all.
The fitness levels are very high, and players don’t look knackered in the last 15.
The subs so far have been excellent, and add an extra dimension when they come on.
Nothing really not to like at the moment.
