Now there's a suprise!

Good to see Jimbo back...even if it's only on the bench.

No need to change a winning formation.

Adam Yates on the bench for Vale.

Yep. It was good to see Jimbo on the pitch pre-k.o. but whilst we're defending and playing like we are, he's gonna have to bide his time on the bench and I imagine will have to get match fitness with games with the resies. It shows what a good squad we've got and with the likes of last seasons Mr Consistancy displaced from the bench as a consequence (who replaced a season befores Mr Consistancy). And with the quality of Wainwright and Duffy and the strength and commitment of Curtis, we've still options to change the game from the bench. It shouldn't be long before Panther's on the prowl again and Craney and McLachlan to fit in somewhere. Wow, what a problem These management decisions can't always be easy to make, so full credit to Sammy and Mark for progressively building a better and stronger squad and developing that all important competitive edge for a first team shirt.

.... and Yatesy (who was nicley greeted onto the pitch by our fans after half-time with the 'Yatesy, Yatesy..... ' chant) had done nothing wrong while playing very well for us, was similarly dsiplaced from our team by players coming in and performing better. Long may it continue
