The funniest part of last night for me, was after all the shithousing and time wasting from Tranmere, then number 2 does his braindead late tackle when already on a yellow and pretty much just gets up and sprints off the pitch  hilarious

Good stuff. I've only watched the highlights and it may just be the way that's been edited, but from that it did appear that a key tactic of theirs seemed to be to kick us off the pitch?

Turgid first half complete with Bycroft doing Bycroft things. We need a new GK.
Butterworth was excellent when he came on, gave us some momentum and put us on the front foot. I have not been sold on him but last night he won me round. We kept our composure, our discipline and worked hard together. We seem to be playing for each other and the manager. Credit to Holloway for his subs. Tshimanga was excellent when he came on and it was great to see Glatzel getting a goal.
Another 3 points and another win at Fortress CG!
Special mention to Tranmere's tactics and their GK. Also, I think it is the first time I have ever seen a player sprint off laughing after being sent off. Onwards to Carlisle.

To be fair to Adkins, that's one of the harshest pens and yellow card I've seen for a long time

I thought it harsh until I saw the replay a couple of times, he obviously puts his arm up to stop the shot. Definate pen.

I agree with that - the other thing is the players' reaction. There were no real protests either from the man who handled or his team mates which is usually a sign it was a correct decision.

Should we be preparing for the Manager of the Month curse? Just a random thought I had. Not too many teams had a better January than us I wouldn't have thought...

Bradford have 5 wins and a draw in the last 6, County have a similar record as us too.
