    think most of what i was going to say has been said...

    so they made changes, err so did we (8 was it?) yet they still took till the last few minutes to register any attempt on our goal and that was an apparent weak header...if this is their 'second string' they want to hope injuries and suspensions don't hit hard.

    again, not a player putting a foot out of place and good performances all round...pritchard seems to be getting the mention from both sets of fans but i got the impression evans did his usual good job of protection and 'mopping up', anyone there care to comment?

    AoB quieter this game but still involved in a lot, surprised as others to see onien start but nice he got his goal, younger lads just keep showing up stronger and more assured don't they?

    LJ is gonna need some supa-strong asprins for the headaches he must be getting now, and long may it continue!! (sorry LJ)

    And this is why I like O'Brien when most people don't ...

    ... Wyke only ever celebrated goals he scored himself.

    Cracking performance from everyone . I think this shows the absolute strength in depth we have within the squad. Ready made replacements in key positions if injuries and suspensions occur. Greater depth by far than everyone else. On we go. Home tie against premier league opposition would be nice. Big crowd at the sol. It’s also a very good bounce back from a disappointing end to Saturday. Well done everyone. :1980_boogie_down::emoticon-0148-yes:

    tell you what mind, AoB and cirkin both deserved to score and maybe a bit more confidence and dajaku could have grabbed a debut goal...well left by AoB when he was offside as well...five or six nowt would not have flattered us.

    The red and white Brazil.

    Some class football and a thoroughly deserved victory. Really good to see the fringe lads staking a claim when they've had an opportunity, giving Johnson plenty to think about and theres not a single shirt guaranteed a start without a performance.

    The fullbacks were absolutely class.

    Pritchard was outstanding tonight, they had no answer to him.
    I know Alves has played before but was like a new signing and did not put a foot wrong. Same goes for Huggins, a real live wire and second only to Pritchard for MOTM IMO
    If its going to take strength in depth to get out of this league then we have a advantage over Wigan for a start.

    Cracking performance and excellent vocal backing tonight.
    However, I fear we may get repercussions for some of the abuse directed att some of our ex players.

    Man Utd away is the fixture we should want. That's the biggest money spinner for us, we could take home at least a million quid with the revenue that game would generate.

    Got a bit of a buzz waking up this morning. Feels like we’re slowly but surely getting the club back.
