It was a good game to watch yesterday, a bit odd with the whole of one side missing and the ball often giving the ball boys a 30 to 40 yard chase when it went over the fence.
For North End, positives were Nicholls who looks the mid field general PNE have missed for so long, Carter who looks total class when he gets the ball, Mawene, back to his best after such a long lay-off, Henderson who is totally composed in goal and Mellor who finally starts a game I'm at and wins MOTM award. Negatives, the wingers struggled to get crosses in and there were very few attempts at goal, but a game played with total commitment and passion. One interesting view before the game was a man who must have been 40 stone at least, struggling to get to his seat on the 28th row of seating. I said interesting, it was painful to watch and I feared for his health, and that of the flimsy seat he was on also.
