NEGAN – 6.5/10 – Give the man a baseball bat wrapped in barbed-wire and stick him on to batter the Lanarkshire Zombies. That was the remit. Took him three swipes to bloody them enough that we could later apply the finish but fair play to another in the firing line for criticism recently; he was all attack and destroy and we needed that. Half of what they have is now his. Join The Saviours.
KATIE – N/A – He’ll always bust a gut but I thought he looked knackered from the moment he arrived this afternoon. At least he gets a fortnight’s rest now… Ehhh…
BALIKMORY – 5.5/10 – Well done again on sneaking onto the park via the laundry room; looking a little more like a player now than a prankster. Still to convince anyone, but maybe a slow starter? *Edit #1 (too busy rolling about like big wean, hadn’t seen replay): sprightly and sharp to take Arne’s pass and set up the winner.

JAMESY – 6/10 – Yes, a bit of verve from The Flash – wing-play that pinned them back and had them in turmoil as we gravitated to Jamesy like lonely Prestwick ladies at the last dance.
THE TERMINATOR – 6/10 – At least Arne’s looking angry these days – nice MMA move to get himself booked. Now we need the ire translated into some footballing quality. *Edit #2 (too busy rolling about like big wean, hadn’t seen replay): beautiful slotted ball into Balikmory to set up the winer. THAT’S what I mean by quality.
