just enjoy the fact we won and stop looking for a moan. We must have done something right it can't all be down to them being poor. Even if they were poor you couldn't have shocking defending and keep a clean sheet.

I watched the highlights as well and there weren't any

The fact that they showed a Swindon shot that went 50' over the bar demonstrated that

6 or 7 from those highlights, you are joking

I was at the match, & we defended admirably. Of course they had chances but I can assure you there were very few gilt edged opportunities & I felt comfortable throughout the match.
I still expect us to go down & probably lose more than we win between now & the end of the season, but the players deserve credit for yesterday. They carried out the game plan to a tee & snuck the win.
Why complain when we win. Save it for another week. I'm sure you'll get plenty of opportunity.

I was at the match on Saturday. 1st half I thought we gave as good as we got. If only we had a preditor in the box when a cross came in. The second half they pushed us back more but were really restricted in clear cut chances.Our Goaly wasn't worked that hard 2nd half and in the 1st half I don't think he had a save to make. Our attacking still seems devoid of ideas although Ched and SEB had very little time on the pitch together.

It was nice to see the loan players enjoying the celebrations and punching the air etc

Because they couldn't do it - I think Evo was on a one man demolition course to inflict as much damage as he could to their escape from relegation.

The celebrations from them and the management showed they actually do give a damn.

[Spire-Power]

Very few if any players dont try imo. They aren't good enough as a group to keep us up. Very poor business in the January window has sealed our fate sadly.

I think you have just contradicted your own observation.

How did we not lose 6 or 7 Nil ????

Errrrrr Great Defending and Defending for 94 Mins rather than just 90.

[JonB]

Just seen the Youtube highlights....Stuckman had to dive to save one of the attempts whilst one rolled straight at him. Aside from that they peppered the stands behind the goal without making our keeper work and no real clear chances which you can put down to good defending. After whats been served up i'm not sure we can win, keep a clean sheet then stick the boot in on them for bad defending!!

Pedant alert. But it's 90 minutes of playing and 4 minutes added for when we are not.
