I can think of a few reasons but yes a real opportunity. Season defining I think
Tuesday is big. Don't win, and today is just a day out to enjoy. But yes, 6 or 7 points from the next 3 and things look better. Barnsley and Oxford tricky teams though.
We're lucky that Oxford have lost their manager to Brizzle and have lost today to Cheltenham ...

Carlisle, Barnsley then Oxford all at home are the next 3 league games however there is a cup trip to Eastleigh after Carlisle and another home game v Charlton in the Bristol Motors Cup to be arranged, possibly after Eastleigh.
The Oxford game could be postponed though if Eastleigh v Reading is a draw next Sunday.

Craig i thought was awesome in the middle and has to be a permanent starter moving forward. Also a big mention to Azeez who looked good in spells today as did mukairu when he came on.
Big positives and the monkey off our back with the away win. Seven points from safety and a confidence boosting victory, another win on Tuesday will set us up nicely for Barnsley and Oxford.
Hopefully some positive news soon regarding the takeover and you never know, we might just be turning a corner, fingers crossed!!

Ridiculous to suggest Reading could draw with a non league side.
Oh wait....

To an extent it's true this year, but today's scorers were Smith and Wing who are both in their mid to late 20s. If we're going to get out of the bottom 4, they will need to be big players for us; Smith has transformed us in an attacking sense. No injuries to these 2 please.

Don't even recall any close calls, that said they were shooting toward the opposite end of the pitch in the 2nd half so didn't have a great view.
Not sure it was 84th,but there was a cluster oxf*rd with Smith failing to sheppard out and then Button beaten with the ball coming back off the far post.

That was pretty early in the half, was nearly Shrewsbury all over again. I do think it came off Button's boot onto the post though so giving him the save there.
