MARK Beesley says his Warrington Town side were “a joy to watch” during their thrashing of Morpeth Town on Tuesday night.

In what was their longest away journey of the season, Town made light of the 350-mile round trip to win 4-0 at Craik Park and jump to second in the Northern Premier League Premier Division table.

Goals from Dec Walker, Evan Gumbs and Josh Amis helped Town canter away after the break after Connor Woods’ first strike since rejoining the club permanently had given them a half-time lead.

The result lends further weight to the theory that Yellows are hitting their straps at just the right time – this was their third straight victory and their unbeaten run is extended to 18 games.

“We were the dominant team from minute one – we deservedly scored four and, on another night, we probably get six or seven,” Beesley said.

“We should have had a penalty and we had a goal disallowed which was a bit harsh, but it was a really good performance.

“It’s a tough place to go especially on a Tuesday night so to get three points, score four goals and keep a clean sheet is a good night all round.

“With the ball, I thought we were very, very good. In the first half, we created so many great opportunities and we looked like a really good outfit in possession.

“Out of possession, we won it back quickly and put pressure on them.

“You’ve got to give immense credit to the group of players we’ve got.

“It’s tough going up there on a Tuesday – you’ve got to take time off work and in some cases, you need the morning off on the Wednesday.

“The commitment and attitude they showed throughout the game was brilliant. We got on with it, dusted ourselves down and did really well.

“From our point of view, it was a joy to watch at times.”
