    Well played Watmore. Didn't give up after playing that **** cross in, right near the end.

    No space, two defenders on him and he gets the perfect ball to Power.

    Maguire with a penalty in the 86th minute

    They should be used to it in fairness

    We scored with a pumped up ball to Lafferty who won it. I'd personally give Lafferty a start but maybe Parky doesn't think he's fit enough.

    I dont know why but I just 'knew' we'd score. Blind faith I suppose.

    Good header by Lafferty but Watmore definitely got the assist.

    Same here mate.

    When we went into extra time I put my beer down so I wouldn't spill it when we scored ...

    ... and that's the truth.

    Even in a poor performance there were bits of play that could easily have got a goal. Maguire off the bar and the brilliant ball rolled across the goal by Hume.

    Fleetwood did defend very well and the double-marking on Gooch nullified him. @John 11:35. Got to begrudgingly give them credit.

    Anybody got any preferences on the cheating b*stards v Rotherham result? I think I would opt for a draw. That way we hopefully gain 2 points on both
    He turned to the West stand and tried to smile but the grief he received was truly magnificent.

    as said elsewhere, what a frustrating game...from the moment they scored they slowed the game down completely, even expecting some ****-housery from a standard barton team that was bad.

    maguire was kept quieter in the 2nd half as well which meant gooch managed to get a little more of the play...wyke is working his socks off on his own every week but i honestly think it is time to try someone else, he should have scored with that chance he had...some of our passing and losing the ball had me swearing at the screen a lot but all the way through i figured we just needed something to go our way or drop for us, just that little bit of luck that had deserted us.

    massive well done to the lads though, kept plugging away when everything was going against them.
