Guiseley: Getting Into Our Stride

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 Brownโ€™s bullet header gave Halifax all three points at The MBi Shay Stadium and earned Town successive wins following last weekโ€™s 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-leagueโ€™s top flight. โ€œNow weโ€™re getting a bit of momentumโ€ said Kosylo, โ€œso I think weโ€™re slowly getting into our stride.โ€

โ€œI 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 theyโ€™ve put more than two (goals) past most teams. We could have done something about both goals that day so it was disappointing.

โ€œBut I donโ€™t think weโ€™ve done badly, weโ€™ve got two draws against teams who will be comfortable in this division.โ€

โ€œConsidering what everyoneโ€™s 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€

Townโ€™s number seven was also full of praise for fellow goal-scorer and club captain, Brown, who headed in his first Halifax goal. โ€œBrownyโ€™s looking in really good shapeโ€, Kosylo said. โ€œWe talk a lot outside of football and heโ€™s really on his game now. Heโ€™s got the armband, heโ€™s got more responsibility and itโ€™s showing on the pitch.

โ€œGarner 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 weโ€™re starting to do that now.โ€

Itโ€™s 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.

โ€œI think weโ€™ll just rest and recover now,โ€ Kosylo added. โ€œI think weโ€™ll speak to the gaffer either today or tomorrow and weโ€™ll see what weโ€™ll go with on Monday.

โ€œBut, weโ€™re not worried if we go and we just worry about ourselves. Weโ€™ll have a brief look at them and get an idea of what theyโ€™re about, then Iโ€™m confident that we can go there and get a result.โ€
