Well I enjoyed that game - we started brightly and for once took our chances to create an early lead. Eastwood had a bit of a shocker on both goals but he's owed a few and at least it didn't cost us in the end.
Going forward, we looked excellent. Browne was at times unplayable at this level and when he was having a rest, Gavin Whyte scared them. Mackie harassed their back line all night making space for others. He's also starting to knock goals in from 6 yards out which we haven't done since Hemmings left.
Dickie was superb at the back and Hanson appears to have found his position.
Despite a couple of scares at 3-2, we rallied and got the deserved winner which Browne took with some aplomb. He really could and probably should have had a couple more before the end of the game.
Mention for Rochdale, they played some good stuff which contributed to the flow of the game and have something of an ageing gem in Henderson up front. Their budget when compared to ours must be low and I think on that showing they'll be comfortably mid-table.
Roll on Saturday, a nice win at Plymouth and away to Spurs in the 3rd round please.
We won't go up this year but I don't believe we'll be in a relegation fight now, our recent form is pretty good.
