Ska Junkie Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 In all honesty, I think we were a tad fortunate not to go into half time behind, again, but were the better side in the second period. Did we deserve to win? I genuinely don't care if we did or not but we did so happy days! Well done boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do find Wilder a bit of a sore loser at times, I'd swear he'd rather grate his ball sack than credit a team that beats his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unan Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Soaked up their early pressure without giving them any clear cut chances, then took control the second half and put our chances away. Organised and fairly clinical, can't ask for much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 And poor ole Frank Lampard lost his cool and got sent off (as did Tom Lawrence for a scandalous challenge) as they lost 1-0 at Rotherham (Check out Morsbys sending off for Wigan at Brentford too !!! Ouch !! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Very very good win. First half we started ok but then they got a grip of the midfield and we weren't determined enough going forward. In the second half we looked stronger as the game went on and deserved our goal. Defensively we were solid. Four wins in a row and a victory after the international break. Good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 As a side note Thought the singing section were on top form today And thought the atmosphere in second half generally was decent with some real noise at points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dullmoan Tone Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Great win but we looked better without DaSilva on the pitch - he wasn't poor but didn't make much of the chances he did have with the ball in the final third. I think it will be difficult to keep him and Chelsea happy if Kelly continues to impress. So great to put his last performance against Sheffield United to bed - thought it was his best home game this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanburyRed Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 This Watkins fella? He's a bit shit, isn't he?!.... Another win, a clean sheet to boot - just the sort of result that breeds confidence in this division. 3rd - that ain't too shabby!! #OTIB #CTID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a shocker as it was never going to hurt him, it was just a cynical taking out - about their third or fourth in the game. There were some hard tackles from both teams, no issue with that from me, but some of their behaviour was cynical at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 That's a cracking result. One game in though it is, I see Weimann and Taylor has a better partnership on paper. Diedhiou's pressing didn't seem so good. Very happy with this though, Sheffield United a strong side who are/were my dark horses for top 6 and we came through it with a win and looked defensively sound too.

THIS is the form we need to have the whole season, no excuses. You want us to go the whole season winning 4 in a row - ie, we’ll win every game for the rest of the season while conceding only 1 goal every 4 games?! No pressure then.....good luck to the chaps!

One huge failure after the great first half, it shouldn't have happened. So yes I want the form we are on now replicated the whole season. No not wins in a row all the time but top 6 form but not like 4 wins in 22! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was my thoughts while watching the game, both teams were alot slower than usual, wondered if it was down to both managers tactically. Certainly didn't have our usual zest but that explains it.
