Great win! What a save from Feds. Inevitable pressure after Mills went. Would have been comfortable otherwise.

[Ian Royal]

Fed might have just earned MOM there!

Yep, little to do most of the match but still about 4 or 5 excellent saves!

[BobKnows]

That was a bit scary But well done boys

[Arch]

Heart in mouth time at the end. Our defence let them get behind us way too much in the last ten (i.e. 16.5!) minutes.

Season back on: Operation Great Escape initiated!...Excellent performances from Howard, Long, Fed and Griffin.

[Terminal Boardom]

Can't complain about Mills' red card. It was deliberate and not very clever either. What option did the ref really have?

You what? Looked a total accident to me, very nearly put it in his own net as well.

[winchester_royal]

Howard was superb, Long excellent, Griffin solid, Mills imperious.

Fcuk me those last 15 mins were horrible though (SIX FCUKING MINUTES????).

Nothing more than we deserved though, fantastic stuff against a team with a very good home record.

[Franchise FC]

Shane Long - maybe fulfilling some promise at last.

I thought he was absolutely faultless tonight.

Agreed, it looked accidental. However, the ball was goalbound and his arm was not exactly close to his body, even if he tried to get it out of the way. If you have beef with the decision, blame the rules, not the ref.

[rabidbee]

That's great - there's now 6 points between us and 12th, which feels so much better than when it seemed like a little chasm was opening above the bottom four. MUST beat Plymouth now.

Yep, they were the stand-out players for me too. Howard's best game for us imo. Both him and Long look rejuvenated under BM.

[John Peel]

Back-to-back wins? What's going on!

We're are going to look sus at the back with CB who's not yet match fit. Will Mills be banned straight away? Three match - that's gonna hurt.

Howard MOTM. That second wasn't as easy as it looked. Good cool finishing. We've missed that this season.

As I said. What option did the referee have?

What was Gunnar doing at the end ?

Clear it and it is game over....

Three? Shirley that's for violent conduct only?
