Docherty, energy and work rate with good passing . KLP , well taken goal and always a nuisance down our left . Ingram , 2 important saves early second half . Nice solid return to the 2nd tier . Well done boys .
KLP - This was just a warm up for a fantastic season Coyle - Always aggressive and threatening with runs forward Smallwood - Best performance yet in black and amber. Great pass for KLPs goal and scored crucial second Outstanding team performance without Honeyman and Elder.
1. KLP great start to his championship campaign .. following in his mate Bowens' footsteps .. cracking performance and frightened them to death everytime he got it. 2. Captain courageous Smallwood .. hopefully this performance will shut a few up .. did the hard yards and not without a touch of class about it either .. good on ya 3. Emmanuel - excellent performance at left back, yet again showed energy from minute 1 to 90 .. top effort Tbh there wasn't a bad performance amongst them even Wilks who was rusty at least showed fighting character getting in challenges when he'd lost it. Great team performance and kudos to all involved from manager to kit man.
Sod's law, I wasn't able to watch live this aft. Just seen the highlights though. 2 key, class saves from Ingram.
KLP - such a threat all game Ingram - great saves, sat next to his dad at the match too Coyle great display in both directions, I was sat in front of his dad with my 8 year old son who learnt some new swear words, most of which were aimed at Lewie when he looked injured!
