Manager Ollie Drake hopes the use of modern technology can aid Godmanchester Rovers’ pursuit of glory.
The local club claimed a first Thurlow Nunn League Premier Division victory of the season when breezing past Gorleston at the David Wilson Homes Ground.
Drake enjoyed the first viewing of the 4-0 rout last Saturday afternoon and he certainly won't have minded studying the match in detail again since then.

Godmanchester Rovers kick-started their season by earning FA Cup success last Sunday.
Ollie Drake's side made progress in the famous competition courtesy of a 3-2 triumph at Northampton outfit ON Chenecks in the extra preliminary round.
And the Rovers chief was delighted to see his side prevail after suffering back-to-back defeats in their opening two Thurlow Nunn League Premier Division matches of the new campaign.
"It was all about the result on Sunday," said Drake. "And I wasn't too worried about how we got it."

EMIRATES F.A CUP – EXTRA PRELIMINARY ROUND
O.N CHENECKS (1) 2 v GODMANCHESTER ROVERS (1) 3
Chenecks; Burrows 8 Diamond 88
Godmanchester; Hall 32 Munro 63 Dawkin 78
A decent crowd turned out at Billing Road despite the almost torrential rain that decided to drench everyone half an hour before the kick-off and was to continue right up until the 60th minute mark.
The game kicked-off in pouring rain and Godmanchester were quick to settle with Jack Chandler causing problems down the right channel. They had got the ball into the box a few times in the early stages with Chandler’s whipped ball skidding across the face of goal just ahead of James Hall’s slide the most dangerous. On 8 minutes though Chenecks finally mounted an attack and good play in the box on the right saw a low ball played across keeper Niall Conroy and Nathan Burrows slid in to turn the ball home from less than a yard out. Against the run of play but Chenecks were one-up.

Drake saw his side beaten 2-1 at newly-promoted Swaffham Town - the reigning First Division North champions - in a Saturday curtain-raiser.
Rovers fell behind after just three minutes but levelled early in the second half as James Hall grabbed the first goal of his latest spell with the club.
But Drake's men were made to pay for allowing a number of other chances to go begging as Swaffham struck again midway through the second period to clinch the points.

Ollie Drake is not a happy man.
There were no bold statements or big predictions from the Godmanchester Rovers boss on the eve of the new Thurlow Nunn League Premier Division season. Quite the opposite in fact.
Rather than talking up his side's chances of bettering their fourth and third positions of the past two campaigns to challenge for promotion, Drake instead reflected on the frustrations of a difficult summer at the David Wilson Homes Ground.
