    (Well it's interesting to me anyway)

    This season, we have followed ever (league) defeat with a win

    Sheff Utd LOSE
    Stoke WIN
    Norwich LOSE
    Rotherham WIN
    Middlesbrough LOSE
    Reading WIN

    We've also usually followed a with a defeat - the only exception being the win to Brizzle and the draw against QPR, but that certainly felt like a defeat

    I’ll take win lose over drawing all the time. More points, more of a buzz too.

    That Jack Ross season was so frustrating.

    You can’t have someone else’s cake as well mate . Only win win win from three options , not 4 wins. Unless against the mags then you can have 6

    I think the QPR was massive. Only because you need to see how your young players respond to that and they did brilliantly. Better than most SAFC sides I’ve seen might have

    Perversely it might do us good in the long run. Still pissed off about it though. Still can't believe Embleton didn't score right at the end

    I am going to watch the whole match again and cancel any outside interference as i do so. I was that happy with the style and our total dominance i want more, so i'm going to fill my boots again, i cant get over that performance, if we play like that on Saturday and win as well ill be in ecstasy

    only the boro performance was dire and even then i felt we were worthy of a draw, the rest have been damn good performances and bad luck/being sloppy/tiring near the end.

    for some reason we have stopped tiring and are now 'less sloppy' at the back, we can only improve...also, watching diallo and bennette we have no worries if those lads have to start games.

    excellent summary mate,plus i don't know what Mowbray has been teaching them but for a few games in charge he is impressing me a lot

    Think they will be a key duo to bring on late in the game when defences are tired. Bennette looked sharp and Diallo can pick a pass. If Ba and Michu can get up to speed and show the same sort of flashes then we have a chance

    From those 6 games say we went unbeaten for 5 but drew 4, won 1, lost 1. That's 7 points. You go for wins but lose one or two when doing so. 9 points better than 7. I know what I mean.
