I think we have had a masterclass in the last few months.
Its been building from the Autumn when the tide stared turning, but the way that JB has remained calm and focussed the players on the target has been outstanding.
Since December we were the best team in the league by some distance, the playing record bears that out. Some did not/would not believe but you could see it, smell it, sense it.
The togetherness and fight in this team is something to behold - they are relentless. As an example I can recall Collins running the full width of the field in the 89th minute to win the ball back after making a poor cross. We were 3-0 up and it was against Harrogate. One minute later he was heading clear a dangerous cross in our penalty area ( a goal then in that match and we may have not gone up saturday, who knows).
JB has them running through brick walls for him/each other/us fans. They do not accept anything less.
And the quality has been exceptional. Look at the Collins second goal saturday, the movement of Harry Anderson ready for the superb pass from Evans, the movement of Collins to make it a tap in. Outstanding. And the bravery to keep playing football both when down at Rochdale and when chasing on saturday. Passing and moving, patience, no lumping.
JB chose 2 defenders saturday, we had 2 wingers as fullbacks.
This has been outstanding
