A good result which rounds off a good week. As ever SD is right, important we didn't lose today, the end is now in sight, we would all have been happy with this position if asked in August 2016. Wouldn't we??

We could easily have lost because we didn't play to win.

I was there and I believe we DID play to win. Yes we also tried to ensure we weren't gung ho and wide open, but look at that spell in the second half for example. We had about 20 minutes where they literally couldn't get out of their half. We were battering them and could easily have scored. (In fact Brady should have!) I thought we were positive throughout and Ward was constantly getting down the wing.
