    That was always going to be a hard game ...

    ... 3 points, clean sheet and a home game on Tuesday.

    After losing two quality defenders I thought we were excellent.

    Hard game, we didn't look comfortable for most of it, but at least this time we got over the line just. Several good performances without looking like the finished article. I'll take the three point but hope we start to find the net with more frequency to help the strain on the nerves. Well done lads and well fought.

    Great result, we would have lost games like this the last few seasons, over the moon with that.

    I love Stewart but we need another striker chipping in ...

    ... Dajaku needs to settle which he will.

    No idea why O'Brien isn't on the bench but we're top so who am I to argue.

    We've played 6 of the teams in the top 9, and beaten them all. Not bad.

    Gotta love these 110-minute games. Value for money or what?

    Flanenbaur had another cracker. Think that the coaching must be very good quality.

    Dajaku looked like he wasn't used to the pace of the game, which is completely understable. He's obviously got some talent though, I think he'll settle in and become a solid player for us.

    There's no denying that was a hard fought win with Bolton making things extremely hard for us at times but I thought the defence stood up to the challenge and when they did manage to break through Hoffman did his job well.

    I’m not allowed to watch the fight. Film night with the missus. Which I’ll enjoy anyway.
    Enjoy yourself mate.

    Portsmouth conceded an equaliser on 87 minutes.

    Sheff Wed conceded an equaliser on 90 minutes.

    Rotherham conceded an equaliser on 90 minutes.

    We didn't concede an equaliser.

    That'll do me <cheers>

    I have to warn you mate, if it's Out of Africa is has two hours of injury time and drags on forever ...

    ... if you can handle that, after our game today, you must be some lad <laugh>
