I thought Jonny Williams had his best game for us. It is very rate and quite strange for me to agree with the sponsors man of the match!! I also thought Simpson was excellent last night as well, held the ball up well, was strong and bullied their defence especially in the second half. Well deserved goal and very unlucky not to have 2 with a superb save from the Hartlepool keeper.

Another word for Odimayo as well. He seems to be getting better and better. Goes about his business quietly but effectively. He sticks out less than the other Centre backs as he doesn't try the hollywood passes and keeps things simple. That said he has good pace and is comfortable bringing the ball out from the back. One lovely piece of skill on the byline in the second half that saw him past his player shows he has ability.

Another vote for Williams here.

I also thought Simpson grew into the game and did brilliantly to muscle through for the goal. Looks to be coming back a bit to look for the ball to feet now, and his hold up play is improving. One thing though, I swear he ducked a cross to the back post in the first half!

Yes, I saw that. He really doesn't like a header does he.

Yeah and thats by no means the first time he has done it, hes a fucking huge lump and I am sure with some specific training it would be easy enough to improve, I thought he was excellent again yesterday though, his hold up play and strength was brilliant at times.

He bullied the ball in the net for the goal and he seems to be very fit too as he gets better as defenders tire late in games. I would say most of his goals have come in the last 20 mins of games where he is still full of running against knackered (and often much older) centre backs, look at Oldham away for instance.
