Great win with four different strikers each getting a goal. I wonder when that last happened?
Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill!

And the key to a result is a good :kettle:

I was extremely confident going into that one and that was a thrilling performance, but we can be a lot better.

Next victims, please.

A very satisfactory reply to the Brewers debacle. Well done the Super Whites... :oyea: :oyea: :oyea: :oyea:

Indeed! Erratum: Konchesky played at ours, but the 4-0 at theirs was later.

It's daft but I think it's really good to have this sort of thing. Klopp with the Kop, players going over to have well-earned fun with the fans. All about connection.

Lovely way to bounce back after having a defeat. Going 1-0 up really does open the door for a high scoring win.

Dad Bod and Charles look like they could be a really serious partnership at this level with a few games together.

Relevant FTs
Bolton 4-0 Wimbledon
Charlton 0-4 Oxford
Donny 1-3 Sheff Wed
Gills 0-2 Plymouth
Ipswich 3-0 Burton
Sunderland 1-2 McDons
Wycombe 5-5 Cheltenham

So we make up 3pts on Sunlun, 2pts on Wycombe, plus lots of other good stuff.

Yeah, in amongst that (and it wasn't a particularly favourable day) we sneaked another point nearer!

Looks more and more like we've got to make up the gap of 8 points to get into the playoffs given how congested it is between 4th and 8th. We're definitely outside contenders for a spot.

Obviously delighted, but an awful lot depends on what other do in the interim and we're still on a big ask. Still, faint heart never won fair maid..and hope still springs eternal etc

Still some room to catch up, but if we are looking at teams to pick off from the pack there are a clear couple of laggards by the form book...

Well that were very enjoyable. Some great footy at times. Several good openings that we couldn't quite turn into gilt edge chances but 4 did not flatter us.

Dion obviously MotM closely followed by Johnston for me but each man played their part today.

I was glad of the yob hotline. Some mum sat in front of us who couldn't keep her kids under control. Neil Hart knows who Gooner Girl is now :D
