Ha. Never deserved the win, but fucking get in. Great finish from Louis. Our first goal looked about 5 yards offside, can't wait to see the replay. Won £60 on a bet too now back home with a bottle of wine.  Cheers! Edit: Just seen the replay for the first goal, he's a yard onside when the ball was played in! |

Playing badly and winning is championship winning form. Great stuff

A win is a good performance....we badly needed a response after Saturday and got one. Of course still a long way to go, but signs are that the penny has dropped that we'l get nowhere without some ugly stuff. |

Well that was a steal, but we would've taken that.
Just how crap does Betty BOO have to be to be taken off. He didn't take their full back on once all game and lost the ball every single time.

Well, if I was a Walsall fan I'd be pissed off but I'm not, so  |

Any news on whether Thompson went off with cramp or injury?

I was pleased we mixed it up a bit today and went long when we needed to (never thought I'd say that). Great goal by Louis. I thought Ajose and Obika linked up well. Barry looks much more at home going forward. Maybe he is more of a winger. That shot he hit was a pretty sweet strike; great technique. Few hairy moments from Branco but he was good in the air and played okay overall. I don't know why people moan about Kasim, I thought he played reasonably well.

Lings done well to get 2 wins out of the 3 league games he's played. If we can grind out a few wins this way maybe we can start seeing something resembling last season. A lot of work to do still.
And I don't give a fuck if we deserved it or not. I've seen us lose when we've dominated more than my fair share of times.

Thought he was decent enough tonight as well. Problem is a lot a people had already decided he played crap tonight before he even set foot on the pitch |

He hasn't reached the form of early last season but I feel he still has quality and he offers more than someone like Rodgers. BOO was poor. I would like to see Brophy start on Sat.

He lost every 50/50, his passing was wayward when he got the ball and he didnt protect the back 3 in my eyes but Gladwin was worse tonight |

Most players are off colour at the moment but I thought Kasim showed the odd moment of class. Gladwin was pretty poor tonight. He might have to make way for Robert. I would like to see Wes in the squad but on tonight's performance I think it would be hard to break up the Obika/Ajose combo.

Losing 50/50's and wayward passing can be attributed to form. Jason has NEVER protected the back four in all the time he's been here, it's the main reason he's effective in a 3 man midfield and lost in 2 |

Kasim is the shadow of his former self, was a passenger tonight I thought, as he has been in most games recently.
Possibly disinterested, maybe he was expecting a big move in the summer like his buddies, maybe the current midfielders don't compliment his style of play, but he's struggling currently.
We have too many lightweight players that don't put in enough fight/effort. BOO, Barry & Rodgers shouldn't be anywhere near the first XI, but due to lack of other options, they are.
El Abd was poor tonight, but I still like his effort and spirit and would like to see him signed permanently in January.
Will be interesting to see what happens in January as we clearly need decent full/wing backs playing this system.
