00:00I think resilience was a word as well which Matt sadly used and yeah they've definitely shown that

00:07and you know to to be successful you need to have that that resilient streak and Wattle

00:12shown plenty of fight in the last two games. I think he kind of used a sort of Manchester

00:18United analogy and it is those those late goals which which prove crucial and kind of get on to

00:24to DJ and what has been his role in the team this season. But you know I think I kind of went into

00:33this sort of, Marlow described it last night, as a trilogy of promotion clashes and I sort of

00:41went into it thinking that five points would probably be enough to give them enough of a

00:47platform really going into that sort of final stretch in the remaining five games to probably

00:54get the job done. And you know it's two points so far and they'll be coming up against a very

01:01informed Port Vale team on Saturday but it's two points so far and you kind of look at how the

01:06tables panned out and it's enabled them to sort of well firstly maintain that six point buffer

01:12between Wimbledon which has now been extended to to seven points with that draw. It would have been

01:18a very different story had Taylor Allen not curled that free kick into the top corner. I mean you know

01:24Wimbledon would have went within three points of Walsall and Doncaster last night would have

01:31went within two points and had a game in hand which would play against Salford later this month.

01:38So you know they win that, that gives them an opportunity to leapfrog Walsall. So you kind of

01:43look at those two draws and consider you know all I've just mentioned there and it's absolutely

01:50massive in terms of sort of the permutations and

01:53yeah the state of play in in League Two at the top end at the moment.
