Great performance second half. First half was fraught and concerning - but that second half was EXACTLY what this team has not previously shown it was capable of. Fight, determination, grit.

Absolutely BUZZING.

Great win and great second half

Well, well, well. Wudjabelieeeveit!

Can't comment on the performance though as I've only watched the last 20 mins or so due to ongoing Turkey gathering issues encountered earlier today but great 3 points for the lads!

Surely no one can moan at that second half performance because it was excellent

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Dec 23, 2023 4:59 pm

Special word for Dara O’Shea today - thought he was absolutely outstanding and I’ve definitely been a doubter of his.

Wonderful & much needed 3pts!!
A great 2nd half all through!

Yessssss

Far from the best performance but who bloody cares, brilliant result, here's hoping we've finally turned a corner.

Trafford actually pushed someone out of the way to claim a ball.

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Dec 23, 2023 5:00 pm

I’m convinced Luton will drop, so I’m not overly bothered.

Forest losing is big. We need Nuno to have a bad start (and end).

It’s my birthday today and I text my only other claret relative this morning saying how nice a present it would be for them to win, said with absolutely no confidence at all.

Well, well, well…

To be fair Reacher books are not a bundle of laughs either. The only difference is he generally wins at the end of it.

I thought Trafford kept us in it first half with some cracking saves, O'shea was outstanding, Beyer doing a tackle in Midfield role with wo mins left

some very good performances today. UTC

Was Tresor taken off because of injury or was it tactical?

Just a win behind Forest....Everton also lost again. Not all plain sailing!

Traff 68% pass accuracy.

Imagine slagging off a goalkeeper mid game when it’s 0-0 by bringing up his pass accuracy stats. Why was Pope not held to the same standard and scrutinised the same?
