Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

Indeed. Their goal was entirely down to Enoch's complaint.

Power of the reverse jinx.

Frankly we are showing great character. And this is very good stuff.

We still probably will come unstuck with our lack of pace and firepower at some point but if we can grind out results, then who knows?

It is an absolutely unbelievable start when you think where we came from.

Thank the Lord for a proper manager.

I don't think so. Probably the correct sub. Wilkinson is more similar to Proctor and Madine and we needed fresh legs who could hold it up. Woolery would have been the sub if we were chasing a result.

Awesome result!! I don't know how to react to this constant winning, not used to it. Mortified I somehow didn't manage to get myself there. Pub team supporter....

Awful second half. Conor Wilkinson not even close to good enough. However, very good result. Solid. Will win more than we lose paying like that. Fleetwood hopefully 4 from 4. Decent turnout from BWFC about 1200 apparently

And to round off a good night, Rovers get stuffed again. 2 more own goals for Duffy, who's now the joint top scorer in the Championship. And he got sent off. Brilliant.
