For anyone who hasnt played there:

First half lads? What happened to getting the ball and working it into the box for the strikers to finish? It's what they are they for, if they are ignored, they get frustrated. We should have been well more than one up at half time ffs.
Second half was better, and sticking five past them was decent. We play some lovely build up football, and I like to watch it, when the passing is that good, and the running and the finishing, it makes it pretty hard for the opposition to cope.
But then at the end of the second half the concentration went, yeah, some changes were made, but come on lads, the players coming off the bench are better than they showed, I know that, you know that. To concede would have been a disaster, and lucky enough we didn't.
I was nearly giving Karl a loan of my jacket he had that little to do, and once again, fair play to the back five for keeping a clean sheet.
The goal that stood out for me was Dan's. Why? The way he followed in on the 'keeper, the determination to get it into the net. If we keep that attitude for the rest of the season I'll be happy.
What does that result do? Well, it gives us 21 points from eleven games (7 wins, 4 losses). We are the second top scorers in the league with 30 (FWH have 34, Dunbar and SS Rovers have 24).
The two teams closest to us are SS Rovers in third spot with 22 points from ten games, and IBM in fifth spot with 13 points from ten games. We are seven points adrift of Second and First spot with both Dunbar and FWH on 28 points from eleven games. FWH Top on GD.
OK, this is now a proper winning streak of 4 games, that's nice going into the Xmas. We CANNOT AFFORD any complacency against Eddie Rockets in the first game back, they have just won two on the bounce, including a win against Dunbar, and will fancy their chances against us no doubt. We need to step up the performance going forward, stop looking for the perfect goal, and just pick the man in space, give him the ball and let him do the easy thing, instead of trying silly five yard passes, flicks and backheels.
Also, we need to concentrate for the full game.
Sure, we were cruising, it's Xmas week, blahdy blahdy blah, but there is still a job to be done. That job wasn't being done in the last ten or fifteen minutes this evening.
Let's keep these wins coming, the top two are feeling the pressure now, we need to push them as far as we can.
Have a nice Xmas lads, and I'll see you all in the New Year.
