Well we do look the real deal.
Signing Grant suddenly looks great timing by Wellens and that's 2 out of 2 without Doughty underlining the fact we do have some squad depth especially with Sidi now in the fold.
Apart from up front. Heaven forbid Yates and Doyle are out at the same time. Some brilliant football, though.

How does that work they, has he got his slippers on
Looked like it with one kick he shanked straight out for a throw-in.

For 70 mins we looked like we were a league above them! No-one had a poor game and rose was superb.
I expected orient to throw something at us and they sort of did last 15 but I was never too worried.
Iandolo was excellent I thought, considering he isn't first choice. And the depth we have now is good. Doughty gone for 3 games but rose comes back, and Lyden off injured but Grant coming in and performing very well I thought. He's a beast.

Great win, we are still shit at scoring from corners though.

Favourites to win the league with the bookies now.
Even Reg must concede that the title is now in the bag

Been a while since I trawled an oppo's forum to feel the love. Swindon #30 has tore our backline a new one today.
Yep not seen us so outplayed in years whatever system they're playing sure ain't working.
I’m actually enjoying watching Swindon
Swindon at least yard faster with their no. 7 totally bossing the game.
That's embarrassing, Swindon playing exhibition football and Brill, well I dunno what he was doing there.
Worth giving credit to Swindon. Although we did our best to make them look good I thought they were a great side at this level. Absolutely taught us a lesson.
Swindon were a yard at least faster, creating space and closing us down straight away. Not sure who was tasked with marking their no.7 who ran us ragged...looked like no-one.
I honestly think that they were playing at 50% in the second half.
Just be thankful the Swindon players got complacent and took their foot off the gas or that would've been a cricket score.

Still buzzing from that 1st half. Giddy, even.
Long may it continue.

Can’t see any reason why it shouldn’t. Obviously, there will be games where things don’t go to plan, but we’ll win more than we lose that’s for sure.

Indeed. This is by design. Not fortune.

Surely even I could watch us win next week?

I don't think we should read too much into taking apart a side managed by Embers, welcome though it is.
