Great performance.
Great decision to have three mids as they all grafted and closed down well.
Jones and Goulding were immense and I think we may need one of them for pace. Goulding is a quality signing.
I am about to say it .. what a game White had. The defence were incredible.
JJ was on his game and their full back couldn't handle him.
Still don't see an Alty player in Daniels.
Loved it. Onwards and upwards.
Well done to all the players and staff.

It was a bit nervy at the back until we scored the first goal. We gifted them lots of chances they didn't deserve. We were the better team by some distance.

Superb result and fully deserverd. Daniels looks off the pace and we were better when Hancock replaced Harrop. White was my mom.

They were direct and poor. Staggered the crowd didn't boo them off

 After there equaliser we were under the cosh for about ten minutes

 Our defence stood firm with some excellent blocking.

 A beautiful strike from JJ for our second hard to pick a MOM but I

 Going for White this Evening an absolute rock at the back tonight,

 One last thing the support was excellent again tonight,no idea how many

 Maybe about 250.

Pleasing to hear White RB had a brilliant game after doubts raised (in good faith) earlier

Jury out on BD - let us hope he settles in

Sounds like a great team performance

Agree with everything said previously, good team performance and the first time I have seen us pick anything up from Haig Ave. Brilliant. Hopefully more to come from Brendon, disappointing thus far.

Thought we looked even more solid when Richman and Hancock came on.

Well done to all that traveled tonight, well over 200 there and well appreciated by the whole team and management.

No reason why this squad can’t be bang up there at the end of the season. Class tonight, best thing about the performance for me was the way we weathered their ten minute storm after the equaliser. Goulding is a majestic centre half and I’m hopeful he’ll prove to be an inspired signing. Our new Scott Leather.

Trying not to get carried away. Southport clearly a side still learning a (bobbins) brand of football and I’m sure they’ll be much more cohesive the next time we play them - but we just looked fitter, sharper and technically better than them tonight. Job well done.

I think most Southport fans had walked out by the end. :P
Given  the expectations, Watson must already be under some pressure.

Absolutely schooled Southport last nIght, very impressive. If I had to pick up on anything, then we do need to be more decisive and quick with our passing out at the back.Quicker thinking forwards may have latched on to a couple last night. That aside, superb all round performance.

Reaffirms my thoughts on Richman over Harrop to be honest - harsh on the latter but we're just so much more assured.

With our historic minging record at Haig Avenue and in the context of all the investment they’ve had in the summer that really is an excellent 3 points and sounded fully deserved too. Well played to all.

Superb and rather jealous not to have been there, must be our first win since FA Cup at HA?

First time we've won there in over 20 years, and first time I've seen us do it in 6 visits going back to 1978 !

Great team performance against a full time side. Was congratulated by a number of their fans when leaving, and I have to agree with the one who reckoned they wouldn't see a better goal than JJ's this season.

Particularly pleased with the way we weathered the 10 minute storm following their equaliser. Bad free kick decision from another poor ref (nowhere near as bad as Saturday's clown though !) and I thought Thompson's positioning was questionable. Previous Alty sides would have buckled, but we fought them off.

Agree with all the above.

Thompson won't be happy when he sees it back but I'm sure he'll learn for next time.

Great performance and what a goal from JJ.

Full Time? So they practice that all week then? Wow.

PP's Red & White Army!
