THORBEN HOFFMANN

Distribution was a little slack early on but improved considerably. One or two uncertain moments claiming crosses but produced yet another stunning reflex save to defy Mandron. 7

CARL WINCHESTER

Terrific defensive display. Made some key challenges, rarely beaten and got forward when he could. 8

TOM FLANAGAN

Another steady defensive showing from Flanagan, who cleared set pieces well and snuffed out danger. 7

CALLUM DOYLE

Defensively sound and his distribution was very good for the most part. Carried the ball out well then the opportunity presented. 7

DENNIS CIRKIN

Another steady performance from the full back. Got forward well at times and defensively steady for the most part .6

DAN NEIL

Super bin the first half. Produced an excellent assist for Stewart’ s first, showing the composure to delay the shot and find the cross. 7

LUKE O’NIEN

Not much chance to make an impression in the final third but was so important in giving those around him the platform to hurt Crewe. Broke up play, took up intelligent defensive positions and never stopped running .8

AIDENMCGEADY

Brought some welcome width on his return and was a regular threat. De served his assist for his all-round-play. 7

ALEX PRITCHARD

Two assist sand a prominent role in the third goal. The kind of output he was brought to the club to deliver. Felt like a breakthrough performance, but brought to an early end through injury.8

AIDENO’BRIEN

Produced a superb first half performance that had everything but the goal. Constantly got into good areas and created openings for his team-mates.8

ROSS STEWART

Took both his goals well and ran the channels intelligently throughout. Another strong, mobile performance from the striker. 8

Subs

DENVER HUME

Defended resolutely and made a couple of good breaks forward. Lookssharp. 7

BAILEY WRIGHT

Helped see the game out late on.6
