Fucking yes.
That was horrible to watch, everyone put in a shift. Fantastic work at the back from Grant, Ian Dolo and Odimayo (especially that last ditch tackle). Bret etc Brett, Brett, Brett, Brett Pitman, Brett Pitman just kept going and make life difficult for the rovers defenders.
It was a typical “spoiling” Sheridan performance and it worked out again tonight. Maybe some luck against an opposition that couldn’t create anything but all about the 3 points. Garrick changed it for us and we at last looked a threat when he came on. Few scary moments but they are down on their confidence and we all know about that. |

Most impressive contribution from him is his vocal organisation.
Absolutely spot on as we are such a quiet team.
Took everything out of the air but quality from the defence tonight keeping a high line.
I'm teasing but he aslo got down quite well too several times. No sign of those brandy snap style knees. But absolutely, just a quality keeper with hundreds of match appearances. |

A Grant:
- Dont want to get of myself
- Everyone is working hard and there is competition in the team
- Been asked to play CB. I could play anywhere. Even said I'd play in goal. Its life as a footballer
- We have lots of centre halves, but I'm not going to say no!
- What does he bring to the team? 'It just me!'
- Playing with 2 injuries at the beginning of the season. Still playing through one of them
- Severe left ankle injury. Right ankle was less severe.
- Rest allowed it to recover
- We were away from home. Good team spirit. Players out of the team are wishing the others well
- Need to keep grinding out wins
- We need to work hard on the training field.
- Odimayo: 'He's a clown!' :-) He's a good young pro and a good athlete. If he keeps learning at this speed he will do well
- Whats happened in the last 2 games?: Miracles do happen! We have been conceding too many goals. This has been down to all 11 players, not just the defence.
- Today we got a bit of luck
- If you don't ask for it you don't get! Grant put his hand up to claim the offsite.
- We have been unlucky though out the season, about time we got some
- Criticised VAR
- We have the players to stay up
- We need to keep the faith

For their goal, forget the number 9 who's not in play - it shows that when the ball's struck, the man on the edge of the area is clearly onside - and anyway, I don't think the ball touches him. VAR Review: Goal  |

Who’d have ever thought the way to stop our defence leaking goals was to literally drop all of our centre backs at the same time...

Well fuck me. Two clean sheets with a frankly bizarre looking combination of defenders, yet somehow it seems to work.
Followed the game on Skybet as i couldn't watch. Was convinced we'd blown it as in the 92nd minute the betting was suspended while Rovers were on a dangerous attack. Looked at my phone again and it said we had safe possesion. Relief.
Long way to go still...just need to be above that dotted line when it's all done.
Plenty of time to worry about Sheridan's future when the season ends. Just keep us away from League 2. Its shite.

Apart from taking some decent crosses didn’t have a lot to do. I thought he could have got down quicker with the offside goal but it’s easy to look from a screen as he may have been unsighted. His organisation is definitely something that has been missing. Blackpool he will be a busy lad and hoping he keeps yet another clean sheet. |

Hawes:
- Good to hear from Grant. A man in exile!
- Good to hear about the injury woes and that was why he was struggling
- Phlegmatic in his approach.
- There is very little to phase him at this stage of his career
- He mentioned everyone who wasnt playing tonight at least twice. He realises they might be needed in the next few games
- Performance lacked the flowing passing until Garrick came on.
- It seems that there is still the ability and want to play the ball out from the back every now and again
- Please to hear that the ball took a deflection as at first Hawes was worried that Camp was a bit slow going down. The deflection explains it.

VAR Review: Goal It looked a perfect goal to me. The second time I saw it I thought even more so, the way it goes 😂 |

Ackkkshurrrrllyyy, he's ripped it off the Wovers FT graphic so it is them that have got it wrong. Look above Foreshaws "Clown Show" and you can see the "FT from the Mem..." tweet. |

Christ that’s massive. Horrible to watch, but massive. Not getting carried away yet, but winning against the teams that matter is a huge boost.
not much else to say, but if you told me this random selection of “defenders” and an ageing Lee camp would be getting us back to back clean sheets, I’d be asking what you were smoking.
Pleased for Payne bagging the match winner after his effort lately.
