Just wanted to congratulate the team on an excellent win today. 3 wins (yes, I'm counting Lincoln because I love it when we beat them) in a week and an intriguing FA Cup tie to come.
Well done to the Shop for grabbing the winner and two goals from open play. Does that put him on 6 goals now?
3 points off the play-offs, 9 points off top spot, things are looking up.

I've given him some stick, but fair play to him today and this week generally.

More than last seasons total league tally. If he could get 12 + then that would be fantastic for a target man.

Agreed. Have to give it to PH and the team. I've been a bit down about town for the last month or two but it's been a great week for the club, the manager, and the players. Just hope we can keep this head of steam now and get ourselves comfortably into the playoffs

Lenny played well but Nsiala, Magney, McKeown, Mackreth Thomas and Disley had good games. Toto defensively was immense but dithered on the ball a few times, Mackreth saw more of the ball and did well and Dizza put in the kind of performance he is capable of but which,imo has been missing this season. Torquay remain the best opposition i have seen this season. Great support no smoke bombs, friendly home fans but over zealous and heavy handed stewarding with no threat of trouble or violence. Once again the reputation Town got from Burton nearly 5 yrs ago means fans are treated as thugs by would be storm troopers

Well as this seems to be the proper "just Back" thread here's my 10 pennorth.
Torquay started really well and could have had three goals in the first 10 minutes (although we too could have scored). Their dead ball delivery (particularly from corners) was excellent all game. Brown made an incredible reflex stop from a full blooded drive by Bowman (for reflex read "couldn't get out of the way") which earned him a pat on the back from the Torquay striker. Lennie's first goal was a snap shot which completely surprised their keeper but it took a few seconds for (most of) the Town fans to realise he'd scored. Torquay's equaliser came from an almost carbon copy of Halifax's goal the other week. The bloke stood next to me asked me why they didn't put the 6 foot plus Doig into the wall instead of the five foot Brown BEFORE the ball went over Brown's head, over the wall and into the net. Town were though causing far more problems to Torquay attacking-wise and the goal from Disley to restore the lead was a cracker. At pace counter attacking and a great ball in from I think MacReth although anyone with better vision than Mr Magoo can correct me, and Dis's finish was excellent. Torquay's equaliser came from a deep corner which was headed down and over McKeown with the keeper being somewhat impeded by a defender on the near post. The winner was pure Lennie-hit first time the poor keeper who must hate his guts couldn't keep it out. No way back for the home side. Best chant of the game was the Town fans view that the Torquay keeper was man of the match-he had a 'mare. I didn't see the scuffle but in the interests of fairness the lad was allowed back in and shook hands with the steward. Best Town player? Difficult to say macca made early crucial saves and a good late punch but must take some responsibility for the wall which failed for their first equaliser. Toto and the ever impressive Magnay stood out at the back. Lennie ran himself into the ground as did Brown. MacReth had his best game in a Town shirt for me and the much maligned Disley put in a shift. Torquay's bar was very friendly and busy. The whole Town seems to be a bit too genteel for football to be honest.... Great support from the fans-again which the players-particularly Magnay really do appreciate..
