Not a vintage performance by all accounts, but it feels like an important win tonight - putting the disappointment of Sunday behind us and a real feeling that we can now start looking up the table rather than down, and begin to think about ensuring a good start to next season.

V pleased.

If..and I know its if...we acn win our next two home games we are likely to close the gap on Cardiff in 6th. They are 11 ahead having played a game more.
We could still make Wembley after all.....18 points out of 21 now. Thats some going.

18 points out of a possible 21. Can't ask for much better than that. Other than 22 points...

Or 19 or 21 points?

Still top of the current form league table!

Just seen the goals on SSN, not bad at all. If we can beat Brizzle on Saturday, then we are S-A-F-E.

If you want a perfect lesson in how not to take a penalty, watch a video of Shane Long's effort tonight! Starts his run up stood to the right of the ball, runs across to the left of the ball and then changes direction again back to the ball. By the time he got there, his body shape was all over the place and, not surprisingly, blasted the ball way over the bar!

What about that drivel he was spouting a few weeks ago about practising against the Fed and always taking a dead straight run-up to fool the keeper. Sounds like he forgot his own advice...

Better he missed the one tonight, rather than the one against Plymouth.

Good game.played some scintilating stuff first half.kebe again awesome. But for a midweek game,vs relegation rivals, with their 2nd keeper sent off and savage in goal,and us scoring 4. The crowd were oxf*rd awful.barely even applauding apart from the two seconds after each goal. Pcunts.
