It could easily have been 5 or 6-1.

Could have been 3-3 at HT!

Even game first half.
We were a bit below par but Harrogate were decent (better than Barrow, Crewe & Shrews)

Second half we went up a gear & could have scored about 6.
Don’t think any team in this division would have stopped us that second half.

One team soon will get us playing a good 1st half and a good 2nd half and God help them when that happens.

It should be a good test against Salford next week.

Lots to like again.

Harrogate better than I thought they’d be.

We really grew into it, and looked much the better side second half. Culminating in Drinan’s quality finish for the 3rd. Mad attack stats for us in general, could have definitely got more.

I will probably start to get a bit prematurely excited if we win again next week!

Holloway:
- Knew they would cause us problems.
- Weaver is a good manager and analysed what we do
- We were a bit slow
- There is a time to play football
- They played well and blocked us
- Bench helped hurt them
- They did a right good job on us
- We scored a fantastic goal just on half time
- The changes at his disposal aren't easy, but helped us win the game
- Two new lads have got on
- Nicholls was injured.
- To roll Oli Palmer on: Felt sorry for them
- Felt sorry for Oldaker. Tactical sub
- The other subs made a difference too
- Really pleased with how we are dealing with things and solving problems
- We coach it every week. Movements we are going to make. Its down to other's being able to stop us
- Should have seen Bodin in training, nutmegging everyone. He is getting back to his best
- Nothing wrong with McGregor. Just needed the others today
- Butterworth was outstanding against Reading and didnt get a go. Prince didn't get any minutes
- But noone moaned!
- Thats what I call learning.
- Its going alright at the moment. Its all about the goals you can get
- Good to be able to rest people
- Need to keep working hard and never stop
- Drinan deserves every bit of credit. Can play him anywhere. Hes in the form of his life. As fit as a fiddle. He moaned last year about playing RWB. But created a goal from there last week! Wanted his personality at the club. He is a wonderful fellow and deserves this
- Tabor: He's fully committed. He has to enjoy himself online. He is completely focussed on being a footballer. Didnt want to go anywhere far away so he could come back and learn from Holloway. He is learning. He's a great kid. He can be called back in 29 days with 1 day notice. He needs minutes. Holloway knows Darren Way. Great fellow.
- Holloway will always tell players the truth. Some of them don't like it, but they know where they stand. Trying to create clarity. He pays players whether they play or not. They have nothing to moan about. But they dont moan when he's about.

Really enjoyable second half. Thought we were slow to get going but after the equaliser, controlled the rest of the first half. Second half we were all over Harrogate, who to their credit, did look a threat on the counter. Drinan’s second goal just showcased a striker absolutely full of confidence. Munroe was brilliant both going forwards and defensively which is rare of a full back at his age. Good to get a bit of an early season run going
