Awful first half. Second half and with the introduction of Arnold we looked a lot better. He and LJL look like they work well together.

Arnold added some much needed pace and direct running. He's got a decent touch as well. Makes a difference that he's willing to go outside the opposition full-back instead of trying to turn inside every time like Neilson! Hopefully, Arnold will start to show his worth in the Conference now as well. Nice to have some attacking options for a change.

Good work by Mackreth for the first goal which rather begs the question, why didn't he try running at their full-back earlier in the game? A bit too in and out of the game in general so much more to come from him yet, hopefully.

Guiseley weren't up to much, so it was good to put them to bed relatively easily.

Good result against tricky opposition who are used to winning and haven't lost away all season. They hardly troubled us at all.

Quoted from ginnywings
The usual home performance so far. Not going to bring the fans flocking back is it?

Already mentioned it so don't like to complain but was wondering whether I'll be regularly shelling out £16 (for another 2nd XI/less competitive game) after the first half whistle blew too.
But patience is rewarded...

Was I being a little unfair ? Probably.
Suppose Arnold is always a good pull and 3-0 aside we're generally good to watch anyway, what sometimes frustrates is the dawdling nature of the game if the ball goes out of play.
I prefer league matches but one thing, if you do attend you get served faster and have more room to move about.
Suprisingly nice pint in the bar too.

If Pittman can also fit into this side, there's going to be a huge threat with pace up front - hope that Arnold can go on a long and fit run in the side.
