Ooo should have been three, but McCleary makes the wrong choice.

[Ian Royal]

Well this has been a good recovery from the disappointment of Derby. Dealing well without Sa.

What happened to Blackman over the Summer???

was highly cynical but, yeah, he's started this season well.

I think he's flourishing with some better, more attacking players around him and most importantly a different system of play where he has less defensive responsibility so he has a licence to just do what he wants.

What happened to Blackman over the Summer???

Despite some good play (and goals) in the early games, Blackman still hasn't learned when to pass the ball square to his TEAMmates to tap in to the net, preferring to blast it over the bar himself

[Royal Ginger]

He'd been getting better. He was against Ipswich and Derby. Seems to have believed his own hype a bit much.

[Ian Royal]

As long as he continues to be less greedy and more effective than before for the most part, I don't mind the odd relapse at 2-0 up.

[marlowuk]

As it stands we are now in a play-off position!!

[Ascotexgunner]

Upto 6th. Late goal at Rotherham.

[Ian Royal]

Good job. League table starts to have meaning in two games and we're moving up it nicely in preparation for that.

[Za Vas]

Good to be back on track. Next two (in the league) against Burnley and Boro should give as an indication if we can be in amongst it for the season.

[Niko]

Mirallas sent off for Everton - will miss League Cup match.

So, he's no longer "useless" just selfish.....................................have him tarred and feathered on the way home

Being selfish is what made him useless previously.

Striker in 'greedy' claims. Hmm. Brings back memories of the debates over Nicky Forster. I'll settle for a striker who is getting the goals and this one is our top scorer right now.

2-0 and a bookies pay out for me and time for us all to welcome Blackman to our club!

It would have been nice to have ended the match as a contest with some easy chances that Blackman's apparent selfishness allowed to go begging but, in principle, I agree wholeheartedly.

My main point was that he's making mugs of those who have been slagging him off since the day he arrived and long may it continue.
