Is it just me or is the day after a derby win a bit like Christmas, smiling ear to ear, a little bounce in my step, generally in a really good mood.
Several mags mostly plastic ones avoiding me in and around the office and factory, probably regretting the foolish comments they all made last week. I have said it on here before I hate the build up and the games themselves I just get myself too worked up and dread the thought that they could actually beat us. Once that whistle blew yesterday the relief was immense, why I let these games get to me like this I will never know but the feeling after a win is almost unmatched. I refuse to lower myself to the level a few of the work mags go to, I find that a smirk is a fantastic way to wind them up and it isnt too difficult to smirk my way through the week. Proud of everyone of those lads yesterday, the players, the staff the support and in particular KLD and his family, what that man and his family have done to our club is unbelievable and long may it continue.
 
What happened to the 50,000 screaming jawdees? It was flat as a fart man, even when they were winning!
Didn't sound much at all mind, apart from early on and for five minutes around their goal.

But second half it was like a bowls match from them. After Talbi's goal they just sat and stared. When they were really needed by a frightened team, they seemed frightened too.
 
Haven't seen the match but was us winning the yellow cards 5-1 seems a bit lopsided.
How was the Ref?
Our five were all fair. Mostly just taking one for the team.

But for a team in trouble in a derby match to only get one card tells you something about the trembling state of fear that lot were in once we started to boss it.
 
Watched Gordon's interview and you know what I really like it!

If they are all that arrogant and think they gave us that match because they dominated the first half (they didn't they edged it at most) and are a better team than us despite all evidence this season they will continue to think they just have to turn up!
Gordon’s words were pretty much copy of Bruno’s after our place
