Sponsors' man of the match: Pádraig Amond

The crinoline creepers stunned the masses by getting it right. Again: Pádraig Amond.

Cod Almighty man of the match: Pádraig Amond

Pearson was the necessary rock against which the feeble armada foundered, and Disley ticked over delightfully, but of course, it can be no other person: it's obviously Ben T… Pádraig Amond. The man has a brain and uses it.

Our gaffer says

"At half-time at 4-0 up you know realistically the game is won. But to keep that intensity and desire to get more goals - that's what I was asking for at half time."

Us

Townsend was like a Stradivarius in a school band.

We think they look pretty good together, even if their shoes are made of multi-coloured leather. The Boglmond is back and ain't life sweet. Intensity and two decent strikers was all it took for Town to have an imperial sweep and sweetness about their play.

The right team did the right things the right way. All's right with the world.

Them

Don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer that you want me to.

They just look sorry for themselves.

Weirdly, they are not worse than Southport. With a few stiffened backbones they may even get out of the ditch. They probably won't, as they have that air of Alfreton about them.

Grimsby 'til I die... or cry?

Hey Shorty, listen to the band.

Official warning

Mr I Hussin (Liverpool)

Who cares? 7.000: he turned up, started it and stopped it.

Readers' digest

Easy riders.
