    I almost enjoy the ugly wins more, as you need those in a season to get promoted. Nicely done.

    8 points behind second and 9 behind the leaders already doesn’t feel good looking at the table.

    Injured for another few months sadly. We should fast track Meghoma.

    Don't worry about that, we're going to Wembley and winning promotion that way - in a hugely unifying moment for the club and fanbase - instead. :)

    I am very impressed with Bednarek.

    Great commitment and passion. Solid and positioning usually good

    He has come back, rolled his sleeves up and really gets stuck in.

    Fair play

    Baz was great apart from a miskick in the first half. THB and Bedders are forming a good partnership at the back. I thought Smallbone was excellent. Sulemana will be a real asset in this league as will Charly if he keeps a lid on it! Adarma is in good form. The one concern is Manning.

    Seemingly has found Fonte's invisible cloak lying around at SMS too.

    Not so bad when there are still 108 points still to play for.

    I'm actually blown away that we didn't f*ck that up. Seemed inevitable.

    Stoke must have put 30-40 crosses into our box tonight but can't say they had a proper clear cut chance. Good to know we can stand up to that sort of attacking play.

    Russell Martin to Sky on fixing our recent issues: "I've been kicking myself, but we probably came here and tried to run before we could walk."

    Can't say fairer than that.

    So, Loading needs to flex his keyboard fingers for another match thread. It's all go when you're supporting a winning team, eh?

    Thought Downes was fantastic as well and added some real grit to the midfield.

    That means we just might not.

    Definitely seemed like that from our attacking players in first half.

    Everything against Leeds just seemed to go right, so I think this might have led to a bit of overconfidence.

    If that's it for Che, then I think we need to try Sulemana up front. Edozie and Adarma on the wings.

    Absolutely fantastic.

    Not the best performance, amd certainly stuff to work on, but a wins a win and we defended well throughout. Lovely free kick from Armstrong.

    Happy days indeed.

    Good to see he can tackle too. Maybe he was written off as a DM too soon.
