Southern United up to position 3

20 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Matt Nelson is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 20 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.
