Matty Kosylo has said that momentum is building in the FC Halifax Town squad after their 2-0 victory over Guiseley secured back-to-back wins in the National League for The Shaymen.
A superb first-half strike from Kosylo and Matty Brownโs bullet header gave Halifax all three points at The MBi Shay Stadium and earned Town successive wins following last weekโs triumph away to Solihull Moors.
After four winless matches to start to the season, Kosylo feels that Town are now beginning to adjust to the challenges of non-leagueโs top flight. โNow weโre getting a bit of momentumโ said Kosylo, โso I think weโre slowly getting into our stride.โ
โI think we started well. I think if you look at the team we played (on the opening day of the season), we played Aldershot and theyโve put more than two (goals) past most teams. We could have done something about both goals that day so it was disappointing.
โBut I donโt think weโve done badly, weโve got two draws against teams who will be comfortable in this division.โ
โConsidering what everyoneโs been predicting, I think it was a six-pointer today, even as early as this in the season. It was a big win for us. A big win that gives us momentum as well going into Monday.โ
Townโs number seven was also full of praise for fellow goal-scorer and club captain, Brown, who headed in his first Halifax goal. โBrownyโs looking in really good shapeโ, Kosylo said. โWe talk a lot outside of football and heโs really on his game now. Heโs got the armband, heโs got more responsibility and itโs showing on the pitch.
โGarner or Reilly or whoever has stepped in at the side of him has been brilliant as well so it gives us a base so that as long as it stays 0-0 we can go and nick games and as you can see weโre starting to do that now.โ
Itโs a quick turn-around for Town now who travel to Gateshead this Monday afternoon. But Kosylo is optimistic that The Shaymen can earn another victory against the top-six side.
โI think weโll just rest and recover now,โ Kosylo added. โI think weโll speak to the gaffer either today or tomorrow and weโll see what weโll go with on Monday.
โBut, weโre not worried if we go and we just worry about ourselves. Weโll have a brief look at them and get an idea of what theyโre about, then Iโm confident that we can go there and get a result.โ
