Stourbridge claimed the result of the night in the Evo-Stik Premier last night, as they put five goals past high-flying Warrington – moving up to second in the table in the process.
A brace from Jordan Archer and strikes from Stuart Pierpoint, Paul McCone and Leon Broadhurst helped quickly put last Saturday’s frustrating stalemate with Lancaster City in the rearview mirror.
And manager Gary Hackett was delighted with his side’s efforts: “It was fantastic and our most complete performance of the season so far, we were good in all areas, ” he told Stourbridge News.
“We have played in pockets this season but not for the entire 90 minutes – that changed against Warrington, which can be a really tough place to go.
“The win was in contrast to Saturday’s game with Lancaster when they put everyone behind the ball and came looking for a point.
“If we could have got that first goal then the game would have been completely different. It was frustrating but we probably took that out on Warrington.”
Hackett also spoke on the impact of debutant Devarn Green, signed from Hednesford Town recently: “He offers us some natural width and helps us stretch teams.
“He hasn’t played for a month but he showed enough to tell you that he could be a big player for us.”
