well Michael that was a a breathless finish to really what was an entertaining game I mean took us through the game as as you saw it yeah I think I think we started the game great if I'm honest which I was really happy with the start we had in the game I felt we took the game to them and played on the front foot and pinned them in a bit but I think they've got some they've got a good squad good experienced players at the level that have been promoted and they got a hold of the game and that's spell and once day we're having that good spell they scored and that's usually what good teams do you know they punish you when they're on top and we had to change a couple of things tactically after that point to get ourselves back into the game we're getting a bit overrun in the Midfield area so we had to change things and uh and once we did that I felt we dominated the game for the rest of the game I really felt we came on strong at the end of the half and then second half I don't think Lex had a sa to make you know no that's not being disrespectful the hearty P because they've um they've got a lead to protect you know and with the experience that they've got they defens themselves to do that but we had to take the game to them and uh we kept trying to do the right things and we got our just rewards and the end was absolutely delighted and you know heartly poool themselves have been you know their forms improved and as you say that on that good patch they had in the first half it I don't if it was similar to Boren wood but you you could see there was a possibility he could go the other way and they could just roll you know roll through us but we did fight our way back into that we did turn the tables a bit didn't we for the second half yeah yeah listen we had to and uh as I said once they scored they had a they had they were having a spell and we to get keep in the game and we had some tough moments and we had to just ride a bit of a storm and and say keep that fight and belief that we have but we managed to get a foot hole back in the game and then second half they says we we played on the front foot more energy conviction in our passes and got down behind them some great switches of play getting in behind them getting crosses into the box which probably didn't do enough of four half so we built some momentum and got our just rewards yeah and it for a long time it looked like it was going to be a sort of gutsy def defeat at home and then you know the go the goal came and uh the K went mad on that it was just uh it was a pleasing end to the game wasn't it to get something out of it yeah for all the effort UND delighted for the for the fans and people like that you know the last two games have been absolutely brilliant getting behind the players and that but I think the players just going to that's the way they've played they going to building a bit of an atmosphere was a little bit flat against B and wood and that and sometime a lot of the time as players the the crowd off how you were playing you know and I think we the way we playing tonight they give them that belief and you know justed for them like Mar the players absolutely delighted for but for the fans as well they deserve that not been too many moments like that this year here I don't think you know and do you see signs of the players beginning to Jael I mean is it every game there's a greater understanding coming yeah look at every game's it's another chance to start to learn each other's guys but that helps in training as well you know so yeah it takes a little bit of time but yeah you can see we're getting a lot of players back now as well and you know Manny back jamaan back some big players back for us and the S Squad is looking stronger all the time so it's just getting them all fitting out there at once has been a problem you know because once we seem to get one or two back and doing goals but we just want to keep uh try and keep them all as fit as possible they're all going to be so important especially in the next couple of weeks with six games coming up with Saturday Tuesdays it's it's going to be big big toll on the squad but that's what you love as a player you love playing games training to bit you don't like the game are the the good this so let's uh let's see how we go and finally looking ahead uh Halifax next week and then a string of home games are you looking forward to that with confidence look again we're playing um we're going to play another good team next week and Halifax one of the you know up around the playoffs good side and um yeah we're going up there but you know we've gone to Alum Chester Field give a good account to ourselves and I just hope we if we play well I'm more than happy you know and and the results follow
