A little harder for the negative ones to find the downside of a 3-0 win, but I’m sure they’ll try! Funny how the ones saying we should be beating teams like this, are the same ones saying we are utter shit. So surely if we are that bad, beating anybody, regardless of quality, must be good? 😂 Solid performance. Dominated, just couldn’t get the second goal. Professional against 10 men, 3 clean sheets at home in the league in a row. Decent debut by Pearson. Great to see Tuenzee coming on too. So many positives to take into the next game. Hopefully the start of some momentum. Well when you put it like that

Don’t see it baker and Thomson both improved us nothing negative in that I genuinely can't fathom how you can't see it, staggering in fact. Don’t bother, he’ll disappear for the evening given we’ve won

Excellent win. They were poor but you can only beat what’s in front of you. Thought that Sterling was MOTM for me along with Campbell who was excellent. Look far better with 4 at the back though I’m not sure the 3 up front works would prefer someone sitting behind a 2.

I would have liked to have seen Celina in that role but suppose we can't grumble too much after a three nil win. Something to maybe think about though.

Smallbone MOM for me & I’ve not been his biggest fan, much better with four at the back & Stirling got forward just as much as a “wing back”, just need the clinical finishing to come now!

It remains a source of mystery why anyone thinks we would even sneak a win let alone batter anyone ????

Decent win against a really poor opponent.
Pearson was a buzzing around and hassling, but calm and composed in possession. Should hopefully give us some balance in the middle of the park.
Sterling & Campbell were the best players on the position. I think Sterling is a real solid fullback at this level. Would like to see us sign him permanently. Big & strong lad who’s composed on the ball, rarely looks troubled defensively. As for Campbell, if you can get the ball to him and he has abit of space to get at a fullback, then he’s so hard to defend against, as that burst of pace over 5/10 yards is pretty much unstoppable. He just needs to get some consistency and keep the fans off his back, as there are too many who get on at him for the smallest of things.

More improvements, good result. Onwards to the seaside. 13 from 15 needed, which we look more than capable of.

I think the plan was always 1 point from Hull game and 3 points tonight. Worked perfectly so credit to AN.

Campbell was mediocre at best, agree Sterling did well and looks a good player.

I think we play with ten men when he starts, gives us nothing.

Really good first half hour where we should have buried them. A lot slower in the second half and then killed them when they went down to 10. Never looked troubled at all.
Difficult to go overboard on it because of the opposition but it’s been a while since we started putting 3’s and 4’s past teams. Shows we can do it and hopefully we see it more between now and the last game of the season.
Reckon we might manage to finish with a +GD for once?

We were very good last night. Huddersfield look awful though, Colin has his work cut out.

Great win and more like it. Clear that Pearson will make a difference.
