I wander what some people want sometimes. It was a well executed away smash and grab. Getting a point was priority hence the set up. Snatching a winner was a bonus.

You could be right. It probably felt a lot worse than it was because I was shitting my pants watching it. I think they had the better chances and it felt like they had much more possession but I think that was just the way we set up. It was about keeping shape and not allowing space., I suppose.

Form table - not bad eh?
A million years later...
and we're chasing the leaders in the form table, with an average of 2.16 points per game over the past 6.

Morgan played very very well too.

I agree that that's the way we set up but I don't think it was right. We are better than them and could have beat them more comfortably with a more positive approach. But setting up for 'a smash and grab' doesn't mean giving the ball away as poorly as we did at times. I imagine that was nerves but I don't blame the players for that. I felt bad enough a couple of hundred miles away.

I will be delighted to take all the ridicule coming my way for my predictions from a few weeks ago. I certainly didn't see these results coming and I can assure you that I've been delightedly dancing round the room this afternoon.
However, we've still got plenty to do. It's looking bleak for Burnley and QPR but one of the rest of us are still going to finish 18th.

Yes, but that is more likely to be Sunderland or possibly Newcastle if we beat them.
Fantastic Result - the only necessity now is to get more points than any of the three teams below us - we don't need any favours or slip ups from other teams above us.
Considering the way the majority of our season has gone, it shows have we have fought back in to a great position. Its looking like as Homer predicted it's "the stuff of legends"

We could be up to 16th before our next game.
And if we make it six wins in a row and we'll be seven points clear by the time the bottom three play again.

He has certainly been a major positive since coming into the side.

I don't think anyone was predicting this 4 game winning streak.
Indeed. I'm almost more nervous now. We had nothing to play for a few weeks ago, as it looked like it would be an 'unlucky' season. Now it's completely in our hands, which means we're bound to screw it up...

Now that's what I call brave. I fear my trousers may have ended up with brown marks had I done that...... from burn marks, as I ironed them, of course. :icon_bigg
