Interesting that no one’s mentioned our record clean sheet holder during a season, Aidan Davison. Perhaps memories are tainted by his second stint and the way he left first time around, but he was incredible between 97-99.

Beasant, Davison and Coyne are the best I’ve seen in my lifetime. Macca is a Town great but having only ever played two levels below the aforementioned three, you can’t really make a comparison.

I'd go along with that and add Charlie Wright who remains the best I have seen, though George Tweedy was always said to be the life and soul of the 30s side. Ian Turner is underrated, when he left us he was a regular at Southampton for many seasons including winning the FA Cup. I always thought Sherwood was very good, not in the gymnastic way of Batch or Macca but he was a great organiser for the back 4 and read the game so well that with his positioning and anticipation he often didn't need to actually make a save.

Funny isn't it? Only a few months ag a lot of people on the Fishy were saying that Macca was not good enough for L2 and he had indeed made more than a few howlers. It cannot be coincidence that this super form comes after we signed Russell. Not only is he a coach but he is competition and fans have rated him highly when he's been in the side.

At the start of the season the loss of Warrington was also cited as a factor in Macca not having best start to the season.

Demonstrates we all jump in too early on occasions in judgement of the team, manager and all other things associated with GTFC. When right we love reminding all of our foresight and when wrong say it was all the other moaners who got it wrong.

Have to say in those early weeks Hessantauler looked lightweight to me and if you had told me our best run would come with him and the ever improving Harry Clifton holding down the central roles I would have fallen over laughing. Still laughing but because of our results and roll on Mansfield 😄😄

What I liked seeing was their No 11 congratulating Macca on that save just before the end.

This - one of those occasions in the heat of battle where their lad has just had to say well done.

Jake Keane is currently on loan at Mansfield and might be playing New Year's day, the 1st choice out for the season.
