Yes.

I look at our attacking options now versus before, and I see the players and Revs at FT, and the interviews, and I believe for the first time he believes we have recruited in a manner that allows us to be more attacking (quite possibly as directed by our board to try to help crowds).

I also note in his post-match interviews after yesterday and the 2-2 with Donny, how he was beaming when he commented after both games how it was a match where both sides went all out to win the game. I think he is relishing that he/we can now do that.

I honestly think our previous options massively held us back, and it was easy to make excuses for them about there not being the service, when they could have massively helped with that. Now we have better options from an attacking perspective, we are seeing us create and score.

I am aware I am harping on about it, but the difference to us as an attacking threat since Magennis replaced Reid is absolute night and day. And not even just on the pitch. If you haven't listened to Magennis' interview last night, do so. An absolute breath of fresh air off the pitch as well as on it, you can tell how much he is enjoying himself anyway, but in his interview he genuinely said "I am absolutely loving my time at Stevenage Football Club", which is clearly not just something he said to please fans, but he clearly means. He also said he has never known accountability like what our squad has at any other club. And said Revs told him when he signed that he needs to just get in positions to score and it is up to Revs/the other players to find him. I really do get the impression he wishes this current situation came about earlier in his career!
