Pre Match Vibe : Confident, buoyant, slightly apprehensive (first day nerves)
Prediction : 1-0
First half : 3-0 up. What can you say. A bit sloppy first 10 minutes, but after we settled down some nice football was on show
Second half : Honestly thought we'd add another 2 or 3, but the numerous chances created just couldn't be converted. Foot was definitely off the gas as expected.
Thumbs up : Chopra (looked sharp, up for it and tracking back) Burke (his brief spell caused problems)
Thumbs down : Bothroyd was off the pace. Didn't feature as much as he usually does
Crowd Highlight : Singing 'We Are Top of the League' after half an hour. You've got to admire that confidence....and we are !!
Man of the match : Chopra (it's a massive season for him, and he's off to a flyer)
CCFC verdict : Good all round performance. Even McPhail had a decent game. Defence looked tight, if a little shakey in places. Looked settled and not nervy like what we're used to.
Visitors verdict : They're not a bad side really. I think they'll stay up....just. After promotion they've got nothing to lose. McCann, Woolford & Wright looked useful.
In Conclusion : Off to a flyer. We've beaten Scunthorpe that's all. Let's no get carried away
