There's the 2nd. Damn. Hope this is a marker for us to go on and storm the league. This is exactly the intensity we need.

Stevenage also winning - but at Barnsley, so that's fine.

3-0!! Already out of date!

I think we might sensibly make a few subs early. Several games coming up fast.

Three up, could've been 5 or 6. Within 15 mins aswell. Immense.

I think a point apiece would be the best result here.

Lovely defensive move from Toal there. Definitely needed it.

Everyone playing well but particular kudos to Darrows-Cogley, Kempsey, John Sheehan and Airedale

Hard to pick anyone out and say they're having a bad game. Some quieter than others, but that's mainly due to how dominant we've been.

Some sloppy final balls costing us a few more goals here. Some lovely interplay in the build up however.

Yeah, I'm just taking the piss out of the commentator's prep.

I agree, and Barnsley have equalised. If anything, I hope they go on to win - but if Stevenage are to win, it is at least good if they're doing so against promotion contenders.

Always good news to hear WIgan are losing - this time, at Reading, to a goal from Ghost's boy Azeez.

I find it somewhat endearing, love a good ding dong do.

We're back up to 3rd as it stands, if Peterborough and Portsmouth could lose, that would be lovely.

Pompey go one up - injury time penalty, their first effort on target I believe.
