Bit nervy in the last 20 minutes, we looked a bit tired around the pitch.  Taylor, Alzate and Doughty all seemed like lost puppies in that period.  Iandolo was put under pressure and creaked.  The 70 minutes before that though was pretty good stuff, we could have been three or four in front with a little more luck.

I really don't know how anyone listening to the radio has any idea what happened in the game, the commentator is terrible at picking out players, or even what is happening at times.

Some positive signs in the past two games, I like the way we have tried to play.  Hoping that Pryce has shown us what he is capable of rather than it being a one off.  On that single performance you'd have him in there as first choice and Doughty is a real threat with him with the ability to thread the ball.

1st half was utterly brilliant and 2nd half we had a couple of 10 min spells of some superb attacking passing football, as good as any I have seen at Town in many years. Stevenage came back into it but held solid, Vigs could do nothing about the massive defelction for the 2nd goal, could easily have been more goals for us.

A bit streaky in the second half, but some really good signs of the new regime making its mark. Was Doughty captain? He played like one, marshalling the line and geeing players up several times. Made me think how much we’ve missed having a commanding captain so often in recent years. Worth an extra man on the pitch.

I see only four other teams have better form in our division than us over the past five games.

Doughty on the ball is head and shoulders above this league, if only we can get him fully fit and keep him fit.

Do you let that team play again at the weekend, or do you rest one or two - we looked knackered at the end, but would making changes risk upsetting a good blend?

All the crap i have watched this season (and last few) and I miss this performance owing to a dose of the flu!!  Pleased for the manager and team but I shall await the verdict from Reg and Sir Windon with interest.

Wellens;
- Wanted us to go for four or five, but we ran out of legs, the energy had gone.
- Had to change to a back five late on. They're a fit team, our young lads aren't used to working like that for 90 mins, we were struggling to match them.
- Take Matty Taylor out, average age about 21.
- We defended too deep, brought them onto us.
- Hard to ask players to do things they've not been doing day in day out but there was desire and determination
- Sol is a shocking trainer. Could have brought Keshi and McG in, but didn't want to disrupt two or three positions when I could change one. In the end I decided to bring Sol in, he didn't look great in training so I almost changed my mind. Glad I didn't.
- We'll play some teams with so much physicality we can't match it so we'll have to think how to take that out of the equation.
- Didn't like the feel of the place before kickoff, very subdued, 18 seconds later we made our own atmosphere.
