Now, here are five things we can take away from Forest Green's 4-1 win at Maidstone United.

1 Forest Green are fantastic on plastic as their possession-based football suited the 3G surface.

2 Mark Cooper is a demanding man as he looks for continued improvement.

3 Rhys Murphy is up and running after two clinical strikes.

4 Liam Noble has a daft haircut but he was a cut above in Forest Green's midfield.

5 Elliott Frear looked back to his dangerous best following his recent injury niggle.
