Mark Beesley: Our performance was excellent

Warrington Town manager Mark Beesley was full of praise after seeing his players sweep aside 10-man Scarborough Athletic in torrid conditions to climb back into the top half of the National League North table.

Sean Williams, Isaac Buckley-Ricketts, Josh Amis and Connor Woods all found themselves on the scoresheet for the Yellows as they capitalised on the sending-off of Seadogs defender Ryan Qualter and put their opponents to the sword.

After coming up empty-handed – despite performing well – in recent trips to Scunthorpe United and Hereford, Beesley was proud that his side were able to put together a complete display on home soil.

“We feel we’ve had two really good performances against big clubs in our league, then we’ve come here today on a difficult day to play football and performed excellently,” he said post-match.

“From minute one right the way through, we were on top, scored some great goals and deservedly won. The only thing I’d be slightly critical of is that we could have been more ruthless.

“We could have scored six or seven – their goalkeeper has probably been Man of the Match despite them losing 4-0. That tells you how well we’ve played.”

Despite the torrential rain and howling wind, Town scored some fantastic goals in Saturday’s win – with a fantastic solo effort from Buckley-Ricketts the pick of the bunch.

There were over 800 fans in attendance, and Beesley was left with a sense of satisfaction over how his side controlled things in front of their home following.

“It’s great for the fans. We’ve had 800-odd here today on a very difficult day to come out and watch us,” he added.

“We’ve given them something to cheer about, and I’m sure everyone who came enjoyed the way we played.

“I can’t praise the lads enough after Tuesday and dealing with that the way we did, so to turn up and dominate the way we did was excellent.

“I know they had 10 men, but we’ve had 10 men and drawn, and even came close to drawing with nine on Tuesday.

“It’s not that easy to beat 10 men, but we made it look easy with the way we played.”
