we are 4th

Happy days! Not a bad game. We need Sturrock out basically.

Blair did much better today, but when he has the ball outwide we still dont fill the box enough.

Easton and/or Pook need to get into the box as quickly as they can.

Thats how we got the winner, Arrieta got the ball outside, Easton ran into the box. Cross came in

2-1 thank you very much.

i remember when you had to wait 4 or 5 games before seeing a league table.

i must say we looked very, very good today. apart from up front but that's a given. 2 goals, 1 goal disallowed, and 2 attempts cleared off the line. luton as promotion favourites? you are having a laugh.

we genuinely are strong at the back, all those who doubted aljofree can start believing now. i can only remember one mistake from ifil that let furlong in, and that ended up comfortably in smith's arms. their goal was totally against the run of play, though it must be said it was a very good cross and a tremendous header (similar to northampton's goal last week, but from the other flank).

our first goal was a fantastic move up from the back, look forward to seeing a replay of it. and just when it looked like we'd be settling for a 1-1 draw, easton bundled home the second.

a couple of dropped crosses by smith but in hindsight he'd probably be punching them due to the slippery ball. defenders all looked comfortable and played with assurance and confidence. pook got about, easton calm on the ball, rarely gives the ball away and positions himself well and of course scored the winning goal. zaaboub saw less and less of the ball as the game went on but when he did have it he generally played the right pass or put in a dangerous cross. roberts, the enigma, once again showed why we tolerate his inconsistency, an absolute menace on the wing and unlucky not to be on the scoresheet.

the pitch looked good, too.

I feel that we get a striker or two we could have a promotion battle on our hands. I'm excited.

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

all those who doubted aljofree can start believing now.

I don't think there were too many of those in fairness!

Aljofree was the best player on the pitch by miles and is the best defender we've had since......(fuck, this may take a while!!)

nope just me  

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

Aljofree reminded me a lot of Calderwood at Northampton last week. Both in his appearence and all round play.

[suttonred]

I thought that against Charlton, for me its the way he chests down a lot of long balls instead of heading them straight back  CC used to do that a lot

I really like the look of Easton.

Pook played well for me, he has his shortfalls but he surprised me again today.

Zaaboub and Roberts were very good today.

Aljofree is different class.

Agree on all accounts.

[Arriba]

zaaboob lacks endeavour when he doesn't have the ball,which frustrates me no end
