That was soooo satisfying.
I was fuming at the red card, and to get the win is simply brilliant. Outstanding across the pitch, passionate, hard working and clever.
Proud to be a Grecian!

Hats off to Will Aimson (and GC) , he's certainly gone from boo boy to super star. What great team spirit we have, just hope we can keep this going into next season.

Comfortably mid-table
Guthrie winks at the bench who applaud him. Cheat.
Northampton defence also catch a few winks near the end.
Hey Guthrie - Will Aimson will take aim son.

We were fckn SUPERB.

MOTM for me was Aimson, showed determination, skill, awesome positional play and great leadership. He had some beautiful touches and moments of skill throughout, capped off by a great goal which he had no right to score.

Other notable performances:
Richards - if you told me he was a 25 year old seasoned L1 veteran we had signed from Barnsley or Derby or somewhere, I wouldn't bat an eyelid. The lad has a huge future based on this.
Harris - really got up in N'hamptons face and looked a threat.
Woods - before he got unfairly sent off, he showed outstanding link up play with Carroll in a deep lying double-pivot. Was running the game. Guthrie is a disgusting cheat, shameful behavior.
Fitzwater - looked comfortable and composed, good to see him back in contention.

Northampton were pure dark arts. Very physical, a little bit of skill from some individuals but overall lacked creativity and couldnt break our structure down. Their #14 Koiki looked extremely good and Leonard and Pinnock are always decent quality players.
Guthrie is a complete scumbag. Hope he gets sold to Kettering Town and rots in the southern league.

Being able to attack with speed and tempo like we are now while keeping how secure we are with the ball will make us such a dangerous team at this level next season

Exactly the sort of team GC said he wanted to fashion us into even when we were in the slump.

Hes coached it superbly this second half of the season, in a way it's good that he never wavered from his preferred style
