Sponsors MoM are usually not the best choices, but if you pay your money you get to choose. Mike Fraser has been excellent for the last half dozen games but not even he would agree that he was deserving of that accolade yesterday.
Now, on to the real MoM. Marius Niculae was suuuuperb. Brilliant vision, precision passing, control was fantastic and he put himself about to knock in a couple of goals. He also is warming to the North Stand chanting his name and applauded the fans a couple of times, well done that man, he was outstanding yesterday absolute polished performance. He was unlucky not to score five goals himself with Combe making a couple of point blank saves and one curling effort from the edge of the box whistling a foot wide with the keeper standing watching and admiring like the rest of us.
There were no failures yesterday and this was one of our most convincing victories this season. Good all round display with us threatening every time we broke forward at pace. Good time to score the opener from Marius and Cowies flicked low volley was in as soon as it left his foot in the second half, similar to Duncans strike last week, but from much closer range about ten yards out, good crisp low ball from Hastings to set it up.
This display should offer the team every hope that they can continue this form into 2008, heres hoping it starts with a win over the Dons when we go first footing.
