    Is Fraser under orders to try and break the opposition players by hitting the ball at them? It would at least be an explanation

    Good win and good performance. Cardiff commentators pretty complimentary about us unfortunately, they did think they were slightly unlucky and thought Cardiff played well

    Lots of great individual performances from unfavoured players.

    Manning very good. Bednarek solid. Charles excellent. Che great link up play 2nd half. And Aribo amazing!! Even Mara looking good.

    Performance of the season? Quite possibly. Think Sulemana being injured could be a blessing in disguise,

    That was genuinely excellent all round. Adarma superb and easily MOTM. Manning, Downes, Charles, Baz, THB, Beddy, KWP all very good. Thought Mara looked sharp when he came on too.

    Not for the first time, shockingly, Aribo looked absolutely class when he came on.

    Match day squad seems to show we are in dire need of another proper central midfielder. To not be able to have one on the bench with one injury or suspension is not really good at all. Especially with two games a week

    Indeed. I was trying to work out who it was. Not least because he seemed to look a lot smaller than the height he is. I was wondering if KWP had moved central or something

    Yeah, while it's frustrating that we aren't gaining on the top of the table, we're really tightening our grip on a playoff spot at the very least. Now just need Ipswich to wobble...

    Finally the complete performance. Enjoyable to watch. Good tempo and passes and runs through the lines. Subs also had an impact. Charles may give us more solidity than Smsllbone hence another clean sheet and with Adams and Armstrong we pulled the opposition defence out of shape.

    So annoying that the other top 3 keep winning, this run of form deserves more than just staying 4th!

    ****ing brilliant saints.

    Well chuffed.
    Credit to all the players and Martin. Proper performance that. As LTL said, could have been 5 or 6 nil and wouldn’t have flattered us

    Patience. Too early to worry. We just need to keep improving, and that's exactly what's happening.
