Should have won by at least 3 clear goals. Missed some massive chances and gave them a gift of a goal. Their offside goal was very unlucky on them but we deserved the win.

Their header wasn't a goal, because it was offside? So you can't really call it an 'offside goal'

Totally thrashed them 2-1.

Accurate. We were almost completely dominant and yet it's thanks to a disallowed goal from them that should have stood that we haven't fucked two points here. We still need to be more clinical and Baz needs to stop the brain farts. Other than that it was a decent performance which was (initially) without Downes, Aribo and Stu in midfield, all who have been key players for us lately.

It’ll end 2-2

Tbh…it should be 2-2. 
they had goal wrongly disallowed. 
bit of a huff and puff effort tonight against a pretty poor side with an appalling away record. 
we will need to be better than that display in upcoming fixtures.

That wasn’t a convincing win despite what possession and stats might say

It was pretty fucking convincing. Its not like we were passing it between our defenders, we had multiple chances to increase our goal tally. It was dominant.

Another day we would have scored 5 or 6. I think changing so much of the team disrupts us to some degree but the gamble has paid off and now we can have some fresher players for Monday.

FFS got out of jail there they scored an perfectly good goal that was disallowed and us with the biggest keeper f up ever.... Still a win.is a win but we should have been out of sight! 

Behave - we battered them and gifted them a free goal. Ok, their offside goal should have stood but we were worthy winners on the night.

We're not going to go through the rest of the season winning comfortably every game. There'll be games like this where we dominate yet only manage to scrape a win in the end. Given our overall form, I'll happily take the less convincing wins. Past the 50 point mark and within touching distance of Ipswich (for now). Would have bitten your hand off for that 2 months ago! COYR!

Had to be patient but we got there. Going to see a lot more of that second half of the season, teams coming to frustrate and it wasn’t too long ago we’d have drawn or lost that tonight. 
 

Shame about the Baz brain fart and the effect on GD but if we do go on to overtake Ipswich I don’t think that will matter in the end anyway. In someways it may get do him good to have that happen as a harsh reminder about complacency. That being said I wish we had Plymouth’s keeper in our goal.

Cracking week of results that.

It doesn't work like that - we'll never know because if their goal stands the course of the game is altered.

Lucky, lucky Saints. Should have been a goal down despite all that possession but the lino made yet another mistake thankfully. But it shouldn't take such luck to win the game. Saints were so superior although the attacking third has yet again let us down.

There again, it is three more points so I'll let them off this time.
