After all the issues and negativity of this week that was a good professional win. Well done Hecky.

The positives outweighed the negatives.
Negatives.
Still too much faffing about.
Poor conversion to goals from chances.
Positives
Wes
Most players stepping up and taking responsibility.
The green shoots of a plan.
We didn't die after 15 minutes of looking interested.
Much to build on.
Good start Heckingbum.
I'm happy to get on your bandwagon if this continues!

I enjoyed that and I haven't said that too often in the past year or so.
Two well worked goals but in truth it should have been a comfortable 3 or 4 goal win, City were poor. We looked more determined and a yard quicker than them while playing some good stuff but when got into good positions we didn't test their keeper nearly enough. That's the only negative really apart from it being flippin brass monkeys! Pity Brewster had to go off when he did. That's two goals in three games for him and I think we're starting to see a little bit of the player that we hoped for at last. Still trust Billy to do the biz when the chance came. UTB!

Can’t disagree with any of that SBT.
I thought it was an entertaining game, poor on quality but in difficult conditions - and I’d rather watch that, than two technically gifted teams negating each other to a boring draw.
Given the conditions, I thought the ref gave a very good performance. He made allowance for the conditions, didn’t blow every time someone fell down, and 2 early yellow cards for delaying the game (including one to the ‘keeper) stopped any time wasting plan the away side had. I wish a few more would follow his lead.

Agree and bookings for kicking the ball away. Nice to praise a ref for once.

Good performance,very good result.I'm very pleased that Rhian scored again but i was getting a bit worried in the last 20 mins or so because i wasn't worried we were going to mess it up.
MGW MotM in my opinion,some of his touches are wonderful. Good start for Hecky,keep it up BLADES. UTB

Eventually but it took me an hour an half to do the 5 miles at most to get home absolute gridlock all over
