Football Club badges fro web FC Halifax Town crest badge logo

Kit Walton

Man of the match

Alex Simmons; he is contributing well, and looks like slotting into the team comfortably.

Moan of the match

The continued failure of Peniket and Burrow to form a meaningful partnership with Denton.

Moment of the match

Denton’s early goal. It settled the team down, and dispelled any doubts there might have been.

Andrew Mann

Man of the match

Jordan Sinnott looked lively, good passing especially first half and scored by far the pick of the goals.

Moan of the match

Jordan Burrow not scoring, partly down to his own poor finishing and partly down to poor service. Really should have scored at least two which could have really kick started his season.

Moment of the match

Moyo and Macdonald both play short intricate passes down the flank before Jordan Sinnott rifles in a left foot beauty from the edge of the box. 2-0 Shaymen and game over.

Adam Heslop

Man of the match

Jordan Sinnott wins this for his overall effort and his long throws. These make throw-ins as dangerous as corners. Brings back memories of Mark Roberts and of course Ryan Toulson.

Moan of the match

After we were comfortable at 4-0 up it would have been good to see some of our talented youngsters such as Khan, Barrow and Baldwin get a little game time to show what they are capable of before we send them out on loan.

Moment of the match

With hardly a minute on the clock Tom Denton scored his first goal for a while. Not only did this get Town off to a great start, it also will have give his confidence a much needed boost.

Rob Brown

Man of the match

Alex Simmonds, worked hard all afternoon and scored a great goal. Great addition to the squad.

Moan of the match

Would have been a great to see the younger players given a run out from the bench with the game safe.

Moment of the match

Second minute, Tom Denton scored with a header to put the Halifax into the lead. This set the tone for the game and removed any possibility of pressure from the travelling fans with high expectations.
