    But we don’t do last second goals. Was it handball?

    I was literally composing a post slagging off Martin when the goal went in. DELETE! <laugh>

    We needed a bit of luck at the end, Watford were the better team 2nd half definitely.

    I thought that but the replay shows it was hit well and early so not much he could do.

    Credit for that final twist.

    Two wins from two mediocre performances.

    Russell Martin needs to go back to substitute school though, he made us worse and being forced to play Stephens out of position because you drop the only backup DM for no reason is a farce.

    The boro and Ipswich games just get more and more annoying - we could have won the whole thing!

    Still not remotely thinking we will get top 2 as realistically we need to win all 5 games and that won't happen.

    Still, good result and entertainment!

    But Downes stayed on and don’t we usually only play one out and out DM? So it seems more like the lack of any central midfield option was the issue rather than a DM one?

    BBC fixture list isn’t the clearest to read but by my reading there is a chance that with two wins in a row we could be level on points with Leeds before they next play ?

    He literally made us worse for no reason.

    Well the reason is he doesn’t trust Shea Charles

    Just noticed Ipswich's game v Coventry has been re-arranged due to the FA Cup. So Ipswich now don't have a game for 2 weeks.
