Great result, I thought we deserved it in the end as well. They did **** all despite having so much of the ball second half. They gave the ball to Doak every time and Cirkin knew exactly what he was going to do. Great performances from Rigg and Bellingham as usual. Great debut for Mepham. Mundle is a defenders worst nightmare, he could be the real deal.
Also, thought Mundle had his Richardson moment with the free kick. Same position and same technique, so close.
Great result given the opposition and the blip last week. Plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the season ahead.
Love that. Rigg was going to go down the tunnel after the interview and O'Nien made him go and get another cheer from the fans.
Great 3 points. Not going to lie I thought Boro were really solid too. Mepham the best player on the park by some distance for me. Didn't break sweat and cut out some serious danger. Bellingham and cirkin close behind.
Felt comfortable with them having the ball seeing the position he was taking up at the back. He’s quicker than I thought anarl.
Naturally and rightly a lot of praise towards Rigg today, the lad was unreal with his goal. However I thought the whole team worked well as a unit and made life really hard for Boro, especially Jobe. Mepham was an absolute rock, sure Danny Collins would have been very impressed with him.

There was 1 moment of a ball played over the top and Mepham put his foot down then turned the striker n passed to o9 - just class 1st choice CB from now on, thought o9 was good again but Mepham is a different level to our other CBs Jobe is just a beast, 1st half I thought he was poor but 2md half he was unreal I really like the lad Hackney for them but Jobe dominated him imo Mundle is going to be unreal for us, his performance today reminded me of a clarke performance. Every time he got the ball in the 2md half you could see a Boro playing going quickly over to double team him Still lots to work on mind, we need to be better in possession at times but that's what has got me excited. 5 wins out of 6 and I don't think we are anywhere near our best yet
So well organised and so committed. Great team play and what a goal. .. a Shackleton back heel .. it took me back. We have a team.
agree about Mepham. Can tell he’s just a level above. Absolutely no sign of any sort of drama with him.
Aye hes Scotlands great hope at the minute. Very good player and loves to get stuck in. Caused cirkin a few problems to begin with then Cirkin showed why he's the best LB in the league
