    Personally think Blackburn are sh*te. Apart from one shot what the fk did they do in that game.

    Great Result - didn’t expect it against TMs former team.

    GTFI tho.

    They were dirty niggly feckers, should’ve had 2 sent off IMO.

    There was one point he had about seven players on him and they still couldn't get it.

    How good was Ballard by the way? Imagine if he and Stewart had stayed fit

    Doesn't mean much but Gooch looked relatively ok, didn't look too bad going off and was on his feet watching afterwards. Fingers crossed.

    Means a lot to me. 100% effort every time he is on the pitch. Obviously loves us and we need players with the bloody amount of injuries we get.

    Absolutely mate I meant that a player looking ok going off doesn't always have much bearing on how long they end up being out for.

    Dirty, cheating, negative team and they got exactly what they deserved. I’d give O’nien man of the match, with Dan Neil close behind. Great result, great Christmas present.

    O'Nien for me too. I wouldn't have him down as the best player in any position on the pitch and yet conversely, I wouldn't pick a starting XI without him.

    I think we often forget that O'Nien is 28 now and has a lot of experience. Over his career, he's only played 20 games less than Evans and 30 less than Wright. He uses that experience well and he's the one player we have who does the game management and dark arts well.

    In Ballard, Amado and Stewart we have 3 of the best players in the league in their positions. Outstanding.

    O’Nien virtually undroppable at the minute, nice problems to have!

    Calmness personified from Simms. The gentle touch just to roll it over the line. Superb.
