    Lost track of the times I went from the Hive to the Brum commentary. Jon Marks at the end, and was a lot happier than their man.

    Sorry - I thought you meant you were listening to the Birmingham commentary too

    Take the 1-0 scrappy win as we needed to get 3 points.

    Obviously didn't sound too great though and Bachmann had one of his good days.

    Might be the last 3 points we get for a while - or even a point.

    The results all went our way basically - Swansea were the only team below us to win today.

    (missed today... an amateur 2.5 hour production of the Sound of Music in a crowded church hall with bad sight lines for little grandchildren... mind you probably more relaxing then the match)

    Probably just as well given our games to come.

    Mind you if we can keep it tight the home games bar Leeds are very winnable.

    This was the first time this season we have gone in at half-time with a lead.

    On my way home from the match... it all looked rather comfortable from where I sat. Yes Bachmann had to earn his corn today but he's an excellent shotstopper. Brums problems are clearly in the scoring department.
    By my estimation this was a comfortable 1-0 and had a second gone in then the game would have been well beyond the.
    Relaxed with a beer on the train in Oxfordshire.

    Rotherham at home - 2-0 up at halftime. But I think the 'first' may have referred to away games.
