    Really good performance.

    But I’m really starting to wonder what exactly Osedebe is sent on to do. Yet another Bambi on ice who’s always trying little tricks, flicks and turns but loses the ball nearly every time. By contrast with Tulloch, who looks to have excellent control and was a big threat every time he got the ball.

    Well, well, well, that was very pleasing on the eye wasn't it.. ?

    That's got to be the minimum standard, well done to everybody involved

    Smallwood's first touch when he came on was backwards...

    I think Tulloch is the real deal and gonna be a big player going forward

    There are a lot bigger critics of Hughes than @Bronco@Bronco

    What a fat bar steward!

    He'll be forgotten, but big up to gillead today. Worked his socks off and was excellent. Let's hope tulloch can keep that up and MacDonald come on in fitness.

    This type of post works better once we've strung a few decent performances together. If you'd been canny about it you'd keep your powder dry a bit longer but then maybe you realised that you might not get the chance so you'd best get in there quickly.

    Stockport 5 - 0 Wrexham wtf
    I think Pattison chipping in will do a lot of the work you're outlining.

    If Cook gets back to scoring every other game, Pattison having a double figures season, and a few randoms chipping in, we might have solved last season's problem of only having one scorer.

    Walker is doing well, and Tulloch gets one too.

    Osadebe, for me, is one of the worst players we've ever had in my years watching City who seems to get regular game minutes from the bench

    Not having a go, but did you see the Gillingham result today? o_O

    I still think they'll be up there, but they might need a good January.

    Football, eh?

    Good win. Not surprised. The only thing we lacked last week was enough nous, to compliment Walker's excellence. Thankfully we had it today.

    Tulloch looks potentially as good as Wright was last year.

    On to the next match

    No I'm laughing at the usual pessimism from @NorthernMonkey@NorthernMonkey . Not thinking we're suddenly going to walk the league.

    Having a bit of balance, which means that not everything is bad and not everything is world beating, is a good policy - when you're in attritional L2.

    Great bit of poker by MH. We should try this again. Great win and even better performance. They deserve all the plaudits.

    What does Hughes see through the week though that makes him keep picking a player who’s offered absolutely nothing positive in any game in which he’s come on?

    a surprise that about Tulloch it is difficult to find a single fan who had a good word about him at his other loans

    Salford having a terrible start to the season. (Mind, could have said the same about us us we'd lost today - small margins sometimes)

    He getting carried away with the result, water off ducks back, I've been disappointed with our situation like the majority on the forum have but I can't recall me waiting him out.

    Very true but we can only judge on what we see and his first couple of brief appearances he looked confident, had good control, quick feet and wanted to run forward and take on a man. Pleased he got a start today and well done to him.

    Most I’ve enjoyed a game for a long while! Let’s hope we can string some consistent performances together of that nature.

    I thought Walker was excellent, although obviously Cook and Tulloch will take the plaudits.
