What a lovely finish, not that different to the one in the warm up that someone linked:

Not sure it is pal. How many games this season has he dragged us through to victory when we were flagging?

Is that the bar?

The drop off in quality from Hamer to Allen or Eccles is entire divisions. We look so much less dynamic without him.

What a great performance. Did the ugly stuff well, yet with all the changes we still played some great stuff. Thought JCS played really well and Stoke were stifled by us. So pleased for Vik. Well done Josh Eccles. Big shout for our fans who outsang Stoke comfortably (drummer helped!)

The comparison is not Hamer to those two, it's of Hamer to his previous standards.

Not that many but that's because the whole team has raised their game and improved. He's playing well just doesn't stand out so much any more due to the way the whole team plays. He looked different last season as he was so aggressive and progressive, now the whole team is.

Well no, because we can’t sell him and play him from 18 months ago instead.

Much needed three points, especially after the unfortunate result at the weekend.

Gyokeres has broken his drought so I'm hoping this is a new dawn. Win at the weekend and we are right back in the fight.

Fuck the FA Cup, 100% I would take a win over boro than Southampton.

Great performance against an established Championship side, was worried when i saw the teamsheet - but they all puled together. Vik look back to somewhere near his best. Big shout out to the large bloke that sat next to me who kept farting. Sheaf MOM. I'd take 3 million for Hamer tomorrow

Don't think you'll find anyone wants to sell him now, it'd be daft. We need a few more in his position and in the attacking slots.

Problem is he was bought to deliver a profit in the end. If he goes in the summer Robins won't see more than a bit of change from the proceeds.

Great win. Clean sheet, Vik goal, Eccles back in the mix, Bidwell with some minutes so all in all a great night.

Jake Clarke-Salter was outstanding tonight. The team defended well but I thought he showed his class.

Top six is definitely still on and IF we do make he top six I would back us against anyone in two 'cup finals.

Looking forward to watching this one back. Can't tell from here if Eccles was shite or decent. That's not sarcasm either, it genuinely seems 50-50.

I'm a big fan of him and hope he gets more game time in his position

Thank fuck for that, I feel much better tonight than I did on Saturday, I think I was still dazed at how we lost at the weekend before the game tonight, I'm glad it came round so quick actually, players put a great shift in!

Much deserved win and a great second half showing, usually sit block 16 but left it late to get tickets and no seats available together so sat in block 36 over in the family stand, the noise and atmosphere created from 14 onwards is something to be proud of great to see it from the outside looking in and it's impressive

A completely different kind of performance to Saturday and 3 points, football eh.
Thought Clarke Salter was very good and made a couple of great runs forward when he needed Bidwell to overlap, hopefully he'll start to do that as he gains fitness.

I counted seven players missing tonight that would have started or been on the bench. That was a difficult game tonight against a horrible side in Stoke who I thought WE made them look without being to insulting utter dog shite. Not one chance did they have and that’s down to a good solid performance from every single player.

MOM Mcfazdean as he led by example from the back.

I'd be confident that if we sold him for £5m then we could effectively replace him for less than half of that though.

I imagine the scouting team already know who that might be too.

We need another one of him even if we don’t sell him, no one else in the squad can fill in really.

Eccles very decent tonight. Glad big Vik scored but really wish he would learn to get in front of his marker on the low crosses

Absolutely loving it at the moment. Past 3 games we've been back to our best! As stated before we still have some key players to come back, beat Middlesbrough and it's time to strap in for a mad end to the season. Feel no pressure about this year it's a free hit and it's so so refreshing to watch us with that mindset
