    Considering Blackburn have just gone to Liverpool and the **** and got 4 points, I would've taken a draw before the game, as I thought we were playing them at the wrong time. I didn't watch the game but it sounds like in the first half we played very well, a little more difficult in the 2nd but we managed to hold on. It's a 4th away win of the season, which is our joint most amount of away wins in the Premier League with the 09/10 season.

    Up to 29 points and consolidating our position in the top half. Well done lads. Great stuff.

    A great win, but we were lucky at times. Blackburn probably deserved a draw due to all the trouble they caused us, and chances they created, off set pieces, but I'm not complaining. We played some lovely stuff in the first half and those were two well taken goals from Crouch.

  7. Yes terrific win and hope some of you come down south to Gilligham on Saturday! Well done Crouchie pity it was not a hattrick to show the likes of Bent, Carroll, Zamora exactly how to find the net. Are you watching Capello????????? IMHO he must be knocking at the door.

    Sgt
    I saw all the first half online we played some brilliant footie.. and I do NOT think Blackburn deserved anything Smither's? Just my oppinion, no offence but, they just load the box and apart from one clearence off the line they didn't really trouble Sorensen.
    FANTASTIC win and HOW on earth that team beat Utd I will never know.
    Proves to me Sgt that, IF T.P. goes for the win, it can come off. Two great goals from Crouch too! He's as good as ANY C forward IMO his touch is amazing re the first goal. And what a cross from Matty for his 2nd.

    WELL CHUFFED tonight so we all should be.

    Potts, I'm glad we won, don't get me wrong, but I think Blackburn were a little unlucky not to get a draw and I wouldn't have complained if they had.

    Smither's
    sorry just realised <ok> I still think we well deserved the win though. If you defend well and we did that today, you ride your luck.
