At 0-0 we looked good.

At 1-0 we looked awful

At 2-0 we looked good again.

All the problems with this team are in the players heads.

When the pressure is off we’re good

He's a ball-playing goalkeeper not Pirlo , they all make the odd mistake at every level. His passing is very good in general

Mad that. I’ve not been his biggest fan but he’s been good now for three games in a row. Definitely capable of a few scary moments but if it works, he stays in. Got a big heart and gets stuck in. He is definitely a centre back though and absolutely nothing else!

Dovin has an average pass completion of 82% this year.

hes made more than 25 passes in every game and averages 4 long balls a game.

bit unfair to say he’s like Burge. He gets the ball in quite some tight spaces

In these times of great joy we should spare a thought for those feeling depressed.
Should we start a collection to buy a “cheer up” card for skybluecam?

Great 3-0 victory for sure. Some unnecessary nervy moments but some confidence is seeping back into the squad once more. Sheaf back to being very influential

Agreed. We were good before the red. It totally fired them up and turned them into animals desperate for anything from the referee.

At 1-0 we were shaken. Shocked Boro didn't score with the poor mistakes at the back.

After we got the second, you could see the confidence and could see that Boro had ran out of steam.

The plays really need to take confidence from it. They were worshipped like heroes after the game.

Strangest game I have seen for a long time. In control until they had a player sent off. The gamesmanship from Middlesbrough was a disgrace. Think it worked for them though as our players seemed to get too worried on getting close to theirs. The ref should have given a yellow card for constantly falling over and trying to get a player sent off.

Was never worried at any time of the game but it could have been a lot more comfortable.

Still don’t think it’s for the long term, but makeshift in places but worth riding for now.

What a fucking day. So happy to see this result and sounds like we deserved it. Couldn't watch as had a game of my own. We won 4-2 against a higher league team in the cup. Muddy, aggressive, unorthodox. Everything you love in Saturday league.

Fantastic Saturday and over the moon that Robins looks to be turning it around. Get that taxi fired up. We are going up the league. PUSB

If you want a keeper to play out from the back then you have to accept they'll make mistakes. Part of the game, innit.
