CRAVIES 1-0

[SmokinFrazier]

Get in! I've been impressed with our passing in this game and i think we deserve the 3 points, so hopefully we can hold onto our lead.

[jmjhb]

Who scored? Davies or Pratley?

[Vertigo]

Definitely Davies, I think it was Chungy or Feeney who put the ball in.

Feeney according to Twitter.

[Vertigo]

Game over! 3 points. Great performance. Great strength and confidence in the lads now. Brilliant.

[DJBlu]

Take that.

Ooosh.

3 more points.

Not the prettiest to watch but a wins a win.

[Prufrock]

Saw the second half. Stream went off once, when Lonners made his save, and then when they got a free kick near their own corner flag I dashed downstairs for a drink. Tripped on the way back up, threw half a pint of water all over the stairs, and by the time I'd then got up I was just in time to see two of their defenders face down and Cravies wheeling away. On a stream with no replays! So I saw a shit 0-0 .

Thought we were v v good until the final third. Given I'm prone to slag him off, thought D-Pratz was excellent with Danns in there. Their energy means other teams have no time at all in the middle and so have to drift things into their strikers which Mills and Dervite will have all day, ta.

2ppg still!

[SmokinFrazier]

That was a really good performance, both going forward and defensively. We still have an issue creating good chances, particularly now that Mark Davies is out, but as a team, we're definitely improving. Up to 18th in the league now, 3 points clear of the relegation zone and just 10 points away from the play off spots.

10 of 12 possible in November, which 2.5 ppg. I only saw the last 20 mins but I was impressed at the quick short passing. I wasn't quite so thrilled with 70 yard back passes to the goalie. Chungy looked good to me.

[twilight]

very good 3 points lads. well done!! We had to be pretty patient today as it was an even game, but we deserved the win in the end. Moving on up

[DJBlu]

Oh and Lonergan take a bow son.

Match winning save today.

[Prufrock]

NL went onto the pitch and straight over to him at FT.

[TANGODANCER]

Tough game. Not pretty but good to see us giving as good as we got. Plusses are our desire to tackle and win the ball back, some of it less than classy but the effort was there. Lonergan made two match-winning saves, one of which Mills was guilty of dawdling for, but as a unit the defence are much better. Tim Ream gave a classy, confident display and did really well putting himself about for the ball. Dervite is looking more confident in the middle, Danns full of effort and no small skills on the ball. We didn't have much joy with the long ball and didn't learn much that their keeper ws a command the box man and made mincemeat of our crosses. Not enough shots on goal, did I count three on target? and some shooting practise on the cards. We always said we'd take a scruffy win, well, that was a scruffy win but we're three points better off so we'll take it thank you.

Chungy was being stupid with his behaviour towards the ref for his booking. He ain't never going to win and showed some real petulance. All in all, we won a tough, physical game.

[Peter Thompson]

I was impressed with our ball retention, passing & movement today....it was excellent. We still lack pace up front and creativity without M Davies - but we are trying to play good football and it is very good to watch.

Danns was excellent, as was CYL, Mills, Dervite & Ream (although Ream is prone to the odd mistake), our free kicks are not thought out and are very poor. Pratley did ok today not great but ok and Lonergan was excellent (great save at the start of the 2nd half) - the only player who I thought was poor was Feeney, I thought he was awful but he was the only one who played badly IMO.

Another good win, we are always pressing & closing the opposition down and NL is always telling the side to get forward - NL is a winner and given time and a couple of signings he will get us up in the next few years.

[LeverEnd]

Poor game and 3 points, which was what was needed to show we can win that win way under Lennon. delighted. huddersfield under powell are a decent side.

[bwfcdan94]

Good to get another win today, getting some momentum going for the big one next Saturday.

[Bijou Bob]

Huddersfield had clearly done their homework, kept 11 behind the ball and invited us to break them down. It was always going to be tough. When we passed the ball quickly and moved we looked much better and Cravies was lucky only to hit the bar after a great move in the first half.

Second half we were more dominant but the final ball was again lacking until the goal. Great football and a deserved goal for both the team and Davies who worked hard all afternoon.

A hard fought victory and just unfortunate everyone above us also won. I'm just hoping we can take a point next week.

Motm Ream for me. Outstanding for 90 faultless minutes.

[TKIZ!]

Just back from the game. Lonners was truly EPIC and IMPERIOUS in his shot stopping today.

Good to add another win, taking each game as it comes but only 10 shy of the play-offs now

[thebish]

for those that went - what was our shape? how did cravies and Clayton look as a pair??
