“He almost had his hattrick when he hit the crossbar, and he practices them in training all the time - it wasn’t a fluke.
“He can certainly feel very pleased with his performance tonight.”
Windass has now got 15 goals and assists for Wednesday across all competitions, and he’ll be full of confidence next weekend when they make the drip down to Wycombe Wanderers in their return to League One action.
