To give a  neutral view  as I didn't go myself, I have heard from somebody who had never seen us play before,went as a neutral, and thought we were excellent.

Special praise went to Ethan Ross for the save at the death, Linney and Conn-Clarke up front, as well as Baines and "Joey Jones"(I think he meant James) at the back.

In general we were "simple and effective" which he stressed he meant in a good way, with  the only criticism that we conceded possession and gave free kicks in dangerous positions late on.

Similarly I can only go from the highlights and opposition thoughts on us:

- we look so dangerous and direct going forward
- that save at the end was better than I ever thought it could be... my word, to get down, change direction and save that is obscene.
- opposition fans seem to be frustrated with us having 'giants' / 'giraffes' at the back, thus nullifying route one approaches
- it seems at least 2 of the 3 goals we've conceded have just been excellent well taken headers, rather than defensive frailties

Lots to be confident about - we should just play our own game at York and let them worry about us.
