The highlights, of which there were plenty, showed a team that was, by the end, oozing confidence and clearly started showing they were up for a fight.
One of the most important parts, to me, was when we were 1-0 up, had a few chances to go 2 up but didn’t and then managing to prevent them from scoring whilst they were pressuring us. One Halstead save in particular was excellent, not in terms of the save itself, but just because of the stage of the game.
Lapslie’s goal was lovely, great to see a forward getting a hat trick, brilliant to see our defence standing firm and our new loan signings making a big difference.
Long way to go, but that first step is always an important one.
As for the comment about “uncle Clarke” having to pick up the tab for four players…that’s what you have to do when you are an owner!
It’s good to see he is clearly backing the manager (unlike plenty who wanted him gone
Anyway, that conversation is for another time, and another thread.
Today is all about revelling in a well deserved victory.
Up the bloody magnificent Torquay United!!
