Well done, this is the stuff of dreams.
Also, well done Pete Wild for mentioning the club and staff in dedicating that fantastic result to Stu Metcalf.

Well,well,well! Certainly worth getting up at five this morning to venture over and visit our Welsh cousins. Very hospitable of them to be the architects of their own downfalls. Some sublime crab like soccer in their own half’s to edge out the possession stats. But rarely threatened in the final third. Josh Gordon’s opener was like a knife through butter. Foley superb again. The work rate throughout the team was relentless and stifled their efforts when they did venture into the final third. Nicely taken penalty by Josh but they probably felt a little aggrieved when the ball appeared to strike a Barrow arm in the area at the other end. Those are the breaks the sun always shines on the righteous so they say. And we certainly basked in it today. Hope Meddy approved from his prime view seat looking down on us all

Think 4 subs used, but hey, who cares. This manager, this squad, are performing beyond our wildest dreams. Enjoy it everyone, enjoy it.

They tried to get as many balls in the box as possible. They obviously saw how we conceded vs Northampton.. but today our back line was immense - especially Canavan.
Can of the match.

Hat tip to your commitment

I too skipped a heart beat with the suspicious looking handball in our box, the luck fell with us today with that decision.
