[michael]

I'll settle for the play-offs

[Arriba]

you'll have a long wait i think

[michael]

Well, I haven't throw my toys out at the lack of a big money signing, so I think I'll be patient enough

My research tells me that the last comparable result was 3-0 away at Wycombe in the league in 2004.

Parkin with a rare goal from outside the box if I remember.

Also; Several Swindon fans dragged away by police for going on the green stuff whilst celebrating.

Haha, i was there. My mate used to have a problem that when we scored he would just run on the pitch and then suddenly realise he shouldn't be there. He got kicked out of the Withdean for it in the play off game and fortunately got away with it at that game.

I also remember that game because there was 4 or 5 of us and outside the stadium we bumped into some lads we used to go to school with. We started chatting, then one of my friends, in total seriousness and who is a school teacher, says, "So anyway, what are you lot doing in Wycombe then?" Trigger would've been proud.

Regarding the Brighton game, I know someone who was in the covered seats, leapt over one of the old Doris' when Parkin scored and ran up the running track, and gave the Brighton fans a clenched fist salute.

He just got shown back to his seat.

4-1 wins make me feel all nostalgic for Oxford.  I had a good feeling about today.

I also had a good feeling as i also had a bad feeling about Hartlepool...

I feel we will reach the JPT Final.

I was actually one of the few who made the journey, a long 506 mile round trip but for once it was worth it!

We started slowly and they were the better team, struggled to get out of our half for the first 25 mins but after a while we got going and starting getting the ball out wide and some decent crosses into the box led to Paynters two goals, both good finishes, after that we dominated the rest of the half and looked on top.

In the second half, we started brilliantly and should have scored a few more goals early on. They came back with a few chances but we were in control and got the 3rd on the counter attack, decent run by tope and a good pull back which was well left by jpm and macca did well to finish on his weaker foot. We then gave away a sloppy goal but never looked in real trouble and ferry scored a good 4th.

Billy Paynter was immesne today, he was brilliant and was unlucky not to get a hat trick. Defence lokked fairly solid apart from the one sloppy goal. Tope ran around a lot without acheiving too much and Ferry had a great game in the centre of midfield.

All in all it was a great performance and nice not only to get the 3 points but to get a few goals aswell!

[Ardiles]

Sounds like one of our more comfortable wins.  Thanks for the report.

And 250+ miles each way?!  Where were you travelling from?

[Langers]

Went from Surrey and a bit of a detour to drop off some mates.

twas a long day!

I was in Surrey today, but not at Tranmere.

Nice to see the goals spread around the side today. A brace for Paynter must surely get his confidence levels right up again. Maybe the competition for places up front and the general clamour for a decent striker is having an effect?

Having Austen on the bench must focus some minds as well.

Granted, Tranmere are shit, but to score four goals away from home isnt easy.

Shame about the goal conceded - Cuthbert and Greer need to kick some fucking ass in defence because that keeps on happening and has cost us more than a few games already. If we do sort out the lack of goals this season it would be shit to ruin things by conceding sloppy goals.

All in all, thats a fucking good 3 points on the board after a dismal run of performances and results. Well done Wilson and the lads.

[Arriba]

what if cuthbert and greer need the kick up the arse?
i reckon they should take it in turns until one gives up.and do it at half time.will probably be more entertaining than the match

[Ardiles]

My house is ¾ mile from Surrey.

Bit of county boundary trivia for anyone who is interested...

The shortest border between two English counties is just 20 yards/metres long.  Which two counties share this very short border?

[donkey]

Northants and Lincs (the internet tells me).
