It's all good, isn't it. When one player drops out, the replacement is of a similar level and they're all playing for each other and, via Twitter, you know they appreciate the support.

The surprise for me is Hurst and his staff. They're positive, generally happy and working in a way that we've not seen for a long time at GTFC. Whether that's coming from them or the owners, who knows and, frankly, who cares. You just want it to last because it must be giving the players that extra 5-10%

One who has maybe slipped under the radar a bit, but I've been particularly impressed with Adam Crookes. Very solid, unassuming player who doesn't get caught out much and generally has good decision making. Good traits for a young player

Definitely not our flashiest signing, but the sort of player every good side needs

One of the posters on here updates the scorers after every game on his footer space - when does McKeown get a chance ?? 😁 penno on the last day of the season maybe??

Opponents - who do we mark?

Answer - all of them, they all score, .. well, nearly all !!

I think like most have said - Player wise Waterfall and Clifton have been incredible.  I've never really been the biggest Clifton fan but he's been outstanding this season in an  largely unfamiliar role, his work rate is infectious.

Taylor, Sousa, Hunt, Fox, Efete, Towler, Crookes all look brilliant & McAtee is halfway to cult status already.

I think the biggest shock for me is the way we are ruthlessly brushing teams away, I appreciate it's early days and i'm not saying we will win the League or anything but I just can't help but feel if we can reach those levels regularly, we will be too much for most.

Doing what we did to Dover at home is one thing, but last night for 70 minutes  & especially just after the break we were breathtakingly good - to the point it looked like men against a youth team, the way we pressed, hassled and just generally made life hell for them was brilliant to see - and then with the ball,  we've got the quality all across the pitch to make them pay.  Against an Altrincham team who are right up there, in great form and been beating good teams in this league.

Long may it continue.

The ignorant twits at the BBC obviously see an improvement in Waterfall's skill level as I see they had him down for right wing again last night.

From the commentary last night, it seemed that the benefit of harrassing high up the pitch was enhanced by our midfielders contesting and winning most of the loose clearances made.

It sounded very much like their keeper was really unsure where to go or who to try to find when clearing. This only changed when we were down to 10 and McAtee was tiring.

Whoever described him at Scunthorpe as lazy must have been blind or stupid.

Said the same thing last night. Never going to be one of the players that grabs the headlines, but is a consistent part of this defensive unit.

A list of every scorer in the National League. It's a long list.
