Haji Wirght so far: goal every 181 mins. Vik last season: goal every 199 mins.

Just saying.

Had enough of these silly arguments on here.

You said we were not very good. My reply was if we get an early goal in the 2nd half we will win. We were not as bad as most made out. You said poor subs by Robins. Several agreed with you BTW. I thought good subs. Simms worries them up front and makes good interceptions in defence.

We won. Enjoy the day and result

Great spirit by the boys, Robins gave them a mountain to climb by leaving Thomas on the bench. Thankfully he swallowed his pride and put him on. Great win.

Great return with so many games left to play. Had he not had that short spell injured he’d no doubt have more.

Just hope we don’t force him to play through the middle next season when the lad from Peterborough comes in.

Much better 2nd half. Wright different player off the left. Callum different class at times, especially when running at them.
Torp top notch.

Really enjoyed that game. I know Kitching is out but I think we should've kept Thomas and Bidwell in the starting 11. I don't want to see that back 4 again.

Second half we were much brighter and deserved the win. Looking forward to seeing how the rest of the season plays out, really need another winning run to pull clear of the chasing pack.

In his first season too. If you’d have told me last summer we’d have a Gyo replacement doing those numbers and still in playoff contention I’d have snapped your hand off.

We were crap in the first 20 minutes and they bullied our back four but let’s be honest that was an extremely comfortable win against a far inferior team

“If we hadn’t scored that and we’d let in another than we didn’t we’d have been in real trouble”

Thanks for that insight mate. Well worth spending licence payers money on.

Lats and Binks were very good after a shakey first 15-20 mins.
Torp is a really good player and showed intelligence on the ball.
Milan was to blame for the goal, even though was still a lot to do to score. But he learnt very quickly and dropped off and didn't compete with the high ball after.
Callum is always dangerous in space and is having his best season as apro.
Simms adds something different and im still hopeful we see goals and better movement in the box from him
Wright gets into positive positions and his stats will show in the end that he is going in the right direction.

Very good 3 pts from a game we were expected to win, but always potential to slip on your arse...Onto to next game.

Agreed. But Adrian is having a hissy fit about Haji and didn’t like it. Don’t be Adrian

Lati and binks were only better as they didn’t have any defending to do as we started to take over. I can’t believe he didn’t start Bobby Thomas.

I agree. He's looking like an absolute bargain.

I'm impressed with how quickly he has settled in, especially given that he hadn't played for five weeks when he joined us.

Yeah for a moment or two. Were 1-0 for most of the game and were silent.

Has to go back to Haji on the left and Simms through the middle.

Lati starts CM for me alongside Torp

Some will never be able to get over calling him shite and a waste of money.

Wish he would be a bit quicker at learning the offside rule though. Once he does he will become more lethal.

Surprised Robins is complaining about the pitch. It’s looked good to my untrained eye.

They knackered themselves out in the 1st half. They pressed us everywhere and chased the long balls. That made the 2nd half a different game.
