You are funny

So what was the difference today?

I will help you. We played a striker who many keep saying is shite. But those calling him shite wanted an extra striker on the pitch. The valid point I made.

How about we attacked more? More like the ball went to the right person up front. 1 shot less than against Derby but we had more of the ball against them....who won away to Millwall today. We had 3 less shots today than we did against Norwich.

Today we had the same amount of shots as Rotherham and they had much more of the ball. But they don't look very good up front.

Yes it is better that we have 2 up front. Please point out where I have said differently. But not to go all out attacking. Look at Norwich today. Losing until the 84th minute. They won. They have the quality to hurt you. Attack teams like Norwich and you will let goals in.

But of course we can ignore the stats and the truth to make a point. If O'Hare was better up front we could well have been celebrating another victory and you could have made your point look valid because we attacked about the same amount.

But less of all that crap. Our run continues. It is a time to celebrate and not have stupid arguments. We are now playing the lower sides. Keep it up and you never know. Mid table is now possible. Teams won't be looking at us as an easy 3 points now.

First time that Dabo didn't seem to be blowing out of his arse as well - what about that mad chase into their corner from a hoof ball late in the game. Possibly indicative that his fitness is getting there?

Unreal from him. 85th minute and he's sprinting to close them down like that in that area. Back to the top notch player we saw last season.

He definitely went under a few radars. Not having that there is a better RWB/RB in the Championship

He was a bit here and there at the start of last season (2 own goals in one game) but got there once he was fit and ready. Doing the same this time, just getting better and better.

One of the reasons I really want 352 is because he is so key to us and he is best as a wing back. We should do whatever we have to to get him playing there.

I know it's a technicality but a scissor kick ain't an overhead.

Ha...technically it wasn't even a scissor kick....just a well struck volley with not much of a scissor action.

Not just that some of us got told we didn't have a fucking clue. Not bothered about that tonight, the result has vindicated the approach and was a million times better than Tuesday night.
Click to expand...

I think it was less about 'some people not having a clue' and more about 'Robins does have a clue'. From my point of view anyway.

I find it amusing (not aimed at you) that people just think MR and his team don't see things they way this forum does. Its like...if you and I know the shortcomings of the team, I'm pretty sure a management team with over 60 years experience in professional football (and the qualifications to prove it) see it as well.

There'll be reasons why we played one up top when we did. The thing MR has earned is the right to get things wrong from trying what he thinks is best.

Hes the best manager in a generation for us. Sure, he'll get things wrong but he's also proven that he can get things right.

Not getting giddy at this run in the same way I didn't shit my pants during the first 10 games. Good 3 points today, going to enjoy a few Grey Goose and Cokes tonight.

Happy Saturday you beautiful bastards

No I was told quite a few times that I didn't have a clue when the crux of what I said was that I wanted us to find a way to be more solid with a way of playing that makes us more of a threat going forward. I'm viewing the season in 5 game chunks at a time, we've bagged 3 points above target from this one so onto the next.

Just watching the highlights now and Walkers touch on his chest for Max's goal is absolutely sublime. Also, Wilson blasting the ball high into the stands after their penalty was shithousery of the highest order. Love it!
