Here is what PNE fans made of the team news, on social media....

@HParkz10: BROWNE AND MADS ON MY SCREEN TODAY IS A GOOD DAY. @LWpnefc: Good as we could’ve asked for. @AdamMasefield: So now we go for it, better late than never I guess. @WoodDan82: Too little too late. Mads should have started or been brought on early on Saturday, instead of settling for a meaningless draw.

@KeatonFisher19: @htafc wouldn’t bother turning up lads. Mads hat trick inbound.’ @ChrisCarter90: Good that Browne’s back in the squad. Worrying that still no Millar though.’ @Anonymouspnefc: ‘Whatmough on the bench is harsh.’ @PJCrisps: ‘Feel like tonight would’ve been a good opportunity to play Best as Hughes offers little going forward.’
