He was a clear winner in the man of the match with 29.9% of the vote and that was more than twice that of second place Graham Alexander who had an excellent game back in a central midfield role. He won 13.9% of the vote. Chris Eagles, just behind Alexander, with 13.3% took third place and the last point on offer.
In the player ratings, via the message board, there were much higher ratings than in the previous two games although still no one has secured anything over seven. Central defender Clarke Carlisle finished top with a rating of 6.69 out of ten for his first points of the season.
McDonald was right behind with 6.63, just short of taking all six points, whilst in third place was Robbie Blake who came on as a sub and certainly made a major contribution as we stepped it up against the nine men of Palace.
