Hereford v Town match thread

What a top result our back 4 and Mckeown sounds as if they have the defence part sown up so now that leaves the rest of the team to sort them selves out   still 2 on the trot and a clean sheet can't be bad myself like many more fans are very pleased with the turn round keep it going Tuesday,utm.

Shaun Pearson you Beauty

4 words i genuinely never expected to see in the same sentence!
Nice to see shaun scoring though, captain material?

I went and it wasn't a fantastic peformance anybody who says a fantastic peformance needs their head testing but it was quite good, here are my ratings how i saw it

Mckeown did the simple tasks very well didnt really have to do alot so 7
Wood, great performance full of heart and was battling, good attacking and great defending at times 8
Pearson, won almost everything in the air good striker instinct for the goal and he is such a playmaker at times 8
Pond again i think Pearson just shades it but great performance 7.5
Thomas, when mckeown copulated up it looked a ceartain goal but Thomas with a totally brilliant tackle denied them 8
Colbeck did well with running but no real end product 7
Niven, at times did some truly dreadful passes but then made up for it with some amazing moments 6.5
Disley, my man of the match, amazing play for southwells goal 9
Artus blew hot and cold at times he was so lousy in possession he lost concentration sometimes, but made up for it 6.5
cook battled hard but hes clearly low on confidence 7
Pearson no impact but got subbed due to injury 6
Subs
Southwell, full of running perhaps should of scored the open goal but good peformance 7.5
Elding full of running 6.5

One thing i am concerned about is the amount of passes and long balls going astray, but we won

We went away to a team who had started well, had a 100% home record, hadnt failed to score at home and had conceeded just one goal at Edgar Street.

To go there and limit them to one shot of note, and that in the dying minutes, was a fantastic performance imo.

Performances shouldnt always be judged by winning by a cricket score against a team of no hopers or playing Barcelonaesq football!

well done to the players and the management on yesterdays win  2 wins now on the bounce    

Niven only a 6.5 ?

I dont think you understand what he brings to the team

Quoted from DubaiMariner

ha, well we'll have to disagree on that then. Why is it tricky? Because its a Tuesday?!?! Because they havent won in 6 games? Because we nicked their top striker this summer?  

cooky wasnt our top striker, adam boyes is and we still have him,    hows cooky doing? sulking yet.  he will get a goal eventually i hope as hes a nice lad.

we are playing ok last couple of games, hopfully we wil get a point or 3 on tuesday but i cant see it myself.

Also the first time Hereford have been beaten at home since March, I'm realiably informed.

Fantastic win against one of the teams fancied to do very well this year.

That's a win (& clean sheet) away at Hereford, comfortable win against Mansfield, a point (& clean sheet) away at Wrexham and a decent point away at Southport. I definitely would have taken that at the start of the season.

Cook seems very low on confidence

He was excellent yesterday and deserved a goal
