Just watched the highlights...

The quality in that cross from Dabo which Godden put over the bar is exceptional, what a player!

I love how he watches it in waiting for the goal.

We stopped at the services on the way back and bumped into Dave Boddy - he came onto the coach to say a few words which was really nice of him.
Basically “the boys are buzzing” “we think 5 wins will do it - maybe 6” thanks for the great away support” - nice touch I thought!

Before the season, I had us in the play offs and fantasized about the top 2 without really believing it. After all we came close to the play offs last year, and this year's side is obviously better.

If we get promoted, does Robins get a boost in salary? Otherwise, I can see some other club trying to poach him away.

Almost certain he's on a good wedge for the division already - compensation for the shit ground position. No evidence, just a hunch

No he gets docked pay for being ahead of schedule and perhaps a written warning. I suspect he will storm off and manage Derby County.

Yes, I thought that’s what he meant, I wasn’t on here back in Aug so there was no prediction from me on here. Hand on heart? I wouldn’t have said champions but would have had us in the playoffs for sure.

On their forum they were saying what good support their fans gave them. Barely heard them....

We are 5 points clear at the top with a game in hand so why are you all bickering about irrelevant crap? Get a grip

Hardly a deflection especially seeing we were spending a fortune in wages in league 2 is it? You once tried to claim marosi should have saved a 25 yarder be honest he’s been a pivotal reason for failure

Eighth biggest budget in League Two according to Fisher.

That would be great. If they could move the away fans (as Leicester do) so we have City fans behind both goals, that would be perfect.
Got to remind myself. We are not up yet.
We have no Ricoh deal.

Anyone know why the lower terracing was empty yesterday? There was like 20 fans down there that you could see from the upper tier, but other than that empty seats?

I thought we controlled the game from the first minute, can't remember even one half chance they had.
Godden took his goal like the poacher he is, and he absolutely ran himself into the ground , as did the midfield too. It's looking good but we still have some difficult games coming up so we need to keep focused. Apart from the handful of morons, our support was magnificent and kept singing all game.

I thought they had a very good chance with that one on one, where their player tried to head it over Marosi, but put it straight into his hands.

Actually, when I saw that on TV, my first thought was that Burge would have kept coming and it probably would have been a goal.

Thought Marosi adjusted himself very well there and read the situation well

Marosi has been arguably our most important signing. Lee Burge was dreadful and the defence last season clearly had no confidence in him.

That was a strange one, everyone, our defenders, us fans and the Ipswich player, Sears I think, seemed surprised at how good an opening it was and the room he had seemed to come from nowhere, to be honest he should have done better.

I was right in line with that and thought that it was one of two offsides that the linesman on the far side had missed.

He got out of jail-started to come and changed his mind and went back. Think this led to Nolan changing his mind also.

Yep, he changed his mind. Quite rightly so. I think Burge would have carried on coming and be completely done.

I think changing his mind was a good adjustment by him. He didn't panic. Burge would have panicked.
