    Not the most convincing but.. another win, another clean sheet, another goal for wyke. 3 points gained on Lincoln and Portsmouth, 2 on Peterborough. We move on, it’s been a good night for us.

    Phew. Decent for a back-line of midfielders.

    Keeps the run going.

    The top two are there for the taking but we can't keep losing players to injury like we are as we will end up running out of steam. We were nowhere near our best tonight but 3 points is 3 points. Same again on Saturday to set us up for Portsmouth!

    Top teams in there respective leagues grind out results when they're not playing well. We dominated possession but lacked the cutting edge, tiredness is obvious playing twice a week, every week.

    I'd seriously consider getting to the Papa John's and resting a few of the main starters, put them on the bench to come on if needed. If we win, great, but if we lose then I'd sharp forget it if we went up automatic.

    I hate to be negative but the Pompey game prior to Wembley will be ugly. They will go in hard. Promotion more important to me but at this moment in time I would imagine a Wembley appearance is more important to the players.

    I was right to be nervous at the start of the game.

    A win is very good.... cementing a place in the play-offs and pushing a bit for automatic...

    Just have to keep winning.

    Some good performances...09 and Power have to get mentions, playing as well as they did out of position.

    Problem still at LB, Jones ran out of steam still not match fit?

    Wyke cracking header Maguire cracking cross

    Burge a couple of cracking saves.
