MAN OF THE MATCH

Glen Taylor

After a game changing cameo on Saturday, that saw the Spartans claw their way back into the game to rescue a point, the tall target man was promoted to the starting eleven for the first home game of the season and didn't disappoint with a fine display.

His height and strength caused the Halifax backline problems all night and he capped his impressive showing with a well taken goal, his first for the club.
