the best ive seen us play all season i think. we looked so much better. looked to cross the ball more. players looked so much more up for it. i was impressed with Weston and Brownlie. thought they were great today and Roberts came into his own in the 2nd half. shame it was a cup game in a way. if we play like that every week we'll have no trouble getting out of this league. lets hope that is the case.

I thought Brownlie hold up play in the 2nd half today was pretty good. Also Nicho bombing down the left wing was just like 3 years ago. Weston and Evans played excellent today. It was so cold aswell cos i wearing my new coat.

So is Brownlie still this clinical finisher you all believe he is? sort of. he fucked up both chances but they were taken so differently that you could tell he was low on confidence and lacking that goalscoring 'touch' as it were. i thought he had a decent game though. roberts took his goals very well. we were superb today and we used width! hooray!!

I think Brownlie was trying almost too hard, same with Roberts. Between them they missed 3 very good chances in the first half, were on each occasion if they had squared it to the other it would have been a nailed on goal. But both wanted to score to prove a point to Sturrock I think, so both were greedy
Still, on a positive note he at least got into goal scoring positions and made the keeper work a bit.
Roberts took both his goals very well, so thats 3 in the lasty 2 for him. Hopefully those two today has done his confidence the world of good.

Brownlie looked okay apart from fluffing two chances, likes to bring the ball down when he can and we built off that. Roberts contributed little yet scored two goals.
Evans had an off day for me, yet still played a few nice balls, Weston obviously superb.
Defence were superb again, best back four out today.
I felt a little sorry for Smith on the goal, a bit eager maybe, and just after he'd made a good stop at the near post. Did well apart from that.

although he was clearly blocked on his way to the ball, couldnt see whether it was our player or a carlise player....but I've seen those given in the keepers favour plenty of times

I think the main positives from today have to be
1. We are still in the Cup (good thing imo) 2. Oxford are NOT still in the Cup so we can laugh at them 3. City are still in the cup so we could draw them next round 4. We scored 3 goals 5. Roberts got two
Bad things
1. Oxford are out so we can't play them 2. We might get a crap draw 3. If we get a decent draw at any stage I will feel crap cos I have to work and will be praying for a draw and a Tuesday night replay!!

what I enjoyed best was the fact, we seemed to performan at a consistent level for the 90minutes.
Carlise had a little spell at the start of the second half, but we didnt panic.
We didnt play in fits and spells like we have been doing, possibly the best performance of the season....1st time we've scored 3 as well?
Long Live King Sturrock Hear, hear. Nice words DV. Couldn't have put it better myself.
