However, once again, the star of the show who is arguably the star of the season so far, Josh Smith bagged himself a brace, taking him two goals clear of Jay Phillips to become the outright all-time leading goal scorer for Stretford Paddock.<\/p>\n<p>What has much-maligned Stretford Paddock is the lapses in concentration defensively and the lack of consistency with clean sheets, an issue that reared its ugly head again as a Hobson mistake resulted in Salford Victoria punishing the hosts in the latter stages of the game.<\/p>\n<p>With no margin for error in this two-horse title race, those are mistakes Paddock will be looking to cut out of their game so that it doesn&#8217;t bite them in important games.
