Great performance. Made Walsall B look truly woeful. Felt like a PSF with the lack of fans but a very good watch. Often wonder if it's hard for some players to motivate themselves for a second string match, but not last night.

Great for the confidence of some fringe players and new.lads.

Mellon hadn't really impressed me in his cameos much, a bit half-hearted in his closing down, but yesterday he was far better all round. First hat trick since when? Godden? (Chuds will know).

The empty stadium meant you could hear Revs coaching and instructing almost non stop. Not just encouraging or bollocking.

When Phoenix was on Revs side he was continually being told "push, drop, go, stay, narrow, wide" as was Saxon to a lesser extent. Its something we don't get to hear from the ET or for me from the Sky league matches much when there's a crowd.

Does he - or Scott - shout at all his players all the time?
