Been, back and just had tea.
A dominant performance against a very poor Altrincham team. However, perhaps just what we needed.
I won’t repeat the opening post on this thread, as that nailed the feedback. However, we created opportunities and had the ball in dangerous areas at least 20 times and that final ball or the lack of threat from Taylor (who did play well, held the ball up superbly and did his job) was still missing. That’s why we have lost some games 1-0 when it’s been close imho.
3 points off play offs despite a poor run. Foundations are there if we can sign a quality forward into the squad at this level to support Taylor and Mcatee
I did see some confidence return today in the last 15 as well and that counts for a lot hopefully

We played against a very poor team and we still looked average , wake up and smell the coffee we are a mid table team area best , don’t sugar coat a 2-0 win against a poor side as great win and we are back.
Apart from two absolutely great strikes we was average and below . I have seen better on a Sunday morning at Bradley

First half we were a bit edgy and rushed things, crowd were very quiet and you could feel the nerves. Second half kicked off and we went after them, upped the tempo, passed better and it was only going 1 way. Altrincham were poor, very poor tbh but we played some decent stuff and Coke n Fox bossed the midfield, in fact Coke was superb, even had a couple of decent forward runs carrying the ball.. Smith, Impressed me, Amos, really good and I may say a potential upgrade on Crookes but MOM has to go the Macatee, there's goals then there's that goal, wow, just wow .. All in all, gets back to winning ways and let's hope we can kick on from here and it's not just a flash in the pan .. UTM ⚪⚫

First and foremost an important win and 3pts
A decent performance and deserved win against a team who are clearly in a bad run themselves. Altrincham rarely threatened us
Thought the 2 debutants did well.
And 2 fantastic goals worthy to grace any match.
But we still look someway off being a promotion team
Whilst we get into some good areas at times and promising situations we lack that clinical finishing required to win games regularly.
We aren't going to conjour up moments of individual magic like today every game

Agree with all of that mate. Two very special goals. Coke had his best game in a Town shirt by a very long way. So good were he and Fox together that we didn't miss Clifton. Special mention to Shaun Pearson for his lung busting 70? yard run fairly late on. He and Waterfall make a very good pairing at centre back. Altrincham weren't a patch on the side that played us back in October.
Alty weren't any good in that game until we went a man down to be fair.

If anyone thinks there is anything wrong behind the scenes I think today should answer that question though we where a bit hit and miss and clunky the effort and application was good against a team with no real quality who just came to break up any momentum we tried to get.
We did try and pass the ball sometimes we did it well sometimes we could have done it much better. We made some snap decisions in the final 3rd when more composers was possibly required and though they weren’t a credible threat we defended well. All in all we looked like a team trying to find our way which after such a bad run I guess we where.
Two good debuts, two excellent strikes and 3 points in the bag. Bigger tests ahead but a good win to try and get us back on track.
