Lawlor - the weakest link - weak and too easily pushed off the ball with limited distribution - not good enough at Salford and not good enough for us - hopefully Chambers will now come into the team and retain the other CB place - I would have happily swapped Lawlor for the Halifax defender Brown who looked a proper centre back.

What was poor ?
McIntosh up front was out of it - poor positional sense and a major let down.
In addition there was another no show by Redmond - anonymous in midfield.
Young was the pick of the midfield - first 15 minutes we played some magical stuff - fast, slick passing on the floor that was the only way to get behind the Halifax massive back line and monsterously tall keeper.

Game changer
He has his critics - but Rutherford's industry and pin point through ball for the goal were just what we needed - Bryan Hughes made good use of the subs last night - good game management with the clock ticking down.
Excellent assessment
