what was most pleasing and was the thing i was perhaps most concerned about is the togetherness from previous years is still there. that will be key to our progress. i'm not concerned about our forwards - we've added an extra body and we've still got the same players who scored plenty last year. i think jackson will score more so if anything we're in better shape up top. it would have been nice to get someone else in but it wasn't to be and all other areas of the team are significantly stronger, so no worries <ok>

I'm fortunate that I live in Norwich, so can usually see the away games in a pub somewhere and I wouldn't like to pick our worst player yesterday, they all played their part in securing what should have been another victory at WHL!!! Even Shearer picked Snoddy as MoM - if he keeps on playing like that (along with the other 2 recruits from Leeds), we'll give some of the so-called 'bigger' teams something to think about. I've always had faith in CH as manager and OK the entire team had an off day at Fulham (similar to Sunderland last season), but if any fan is moaning after our display yesterday then they shouldn't be calling themselves a fan!!!

One day, Johnson is going to get one of those on target and take out a sizable chunk of the net. and stand.

Why are people only talking about the shots that went over? The "miss" in the last few minutes followed immediately on an excellently struck shot that Brad Friedel could only push away, leading to the second belter which went over. Johnson did well to get as close as he did with the rebound IMO. And by the way, the initial fierce low drive was from a delightful, perfectly weighted, backheel from a switched-on Holty (who apparently did nothing all game ........). <ok>

As you say it was a brilliant move that was deserving of a goal, and would have been but for Friedel's excellence. Johnson was immense though throughout, he was everywhere! So much understanding between the three ex leeds boys! Also Russell Martin has developed a nice understanding with Snodgrass down that right wing, some lovely overlapping moves!

Sorry, I wasn't complaining! I love that he gives them a go, and I genuinely mean that one day he's going to start scoring them!

Assuming you've seen this - watch it again and wait for one to happen in a yellow shirt. <ok>

Plus I just noticed that Howson and Snodders both get mentioned in the build up play - happy days <ok>
