5-0 Home win marks a milestone for club legend.
Midfield genius Freddy Kennedy marked his 100th club appearance with a goal in todays superb victory against Bonkers. The club captain won his gold heart in front of the home fans and scored a 40 yard belter to remember the occasion by.
Despite this important day for the club steward, his performance was overshadowed by a superb display by fellow midfielder Alf Ackroyd who set up three goals and went on to score himself in a performance that not only earmarked him as man-of-the-match, but also the Xpert Eleven captain for this round of games.
The manager heaped praise on both players after the game, and insisted it was a team effort, rather than just a two man display.
"I'm delighted for Freddy, he's been club captain since I took over, some were doubtful about my choice to make him the team leader when I joined as we have several players who are more experienced. I'm glad to say I was right, with a performance like that on his one hundreth game, he's roved the critics wrong.
As for Alf I'm overjoyed for the young fella, he's a moddy little bugger at times, but being named as the expert eleven team captain for the second time this season goes to show that moody players can be an asset.
But it was the overall performance of the team I was more happy with, five goals against a team of Bonkers calibre is just outstanding. We can't forget the other players, such as Routhledge who scored a brace and the defence and keeper that didn't concede. Overall we dominated today, the fans got behind us and we went out to impress."
