“They’re superb wingers for this level of football.
“It was important we utilised their strengths, and the system does that.
“I’m a massive fan of theirs, and I hope they continue. I am on their backs a lot to try to get more goals and assists, because I think there’s more to come from them both.”
Rollins has netted six times this season while Hemmings is second in the Boston United scoring charts with 12, with only Kabongo Tshimanga (13) having scored more for the club this season.

Elliott is delighted with the attacker’s 100 per cent conversion rate in matches, especially as Hemmings doesn’t practice spot kicks in training.
“In training we don’t mention it too much,”the manager added.
“It’s sometimes difficult to get yourself calm and stick it away.
“He deserves a lot of credit and I’ve been delighted with him, he’s been superb.
“He’s a very cool customer on and off the pitch, and that shows.”
