[Shannerz]

Think lampard went sentimental at 2-0

We were absolutely in control, and it's EMC's first game back, so it's understandable.

Same team next game.

Win those 3 and then get 4 points from those 3 difficult games and I think we will reach the playoffs.

The linesman cost us the first goal in reality but really he will improve , probably harsh to destroy him on 20 minutes

Just think he needs to play a bit for the u21s. Regardless of where he was born.

Great win. First half outstanding. Second half just OK but still could have had a couple if our finishing was a touch better.

Should have gone 3-0 after he came on too. Looked like a poor miss from Simms.

No probably about it

 

[shmmeee]

Jamie Paterson looked overwhelmed tbh like he was desperate to do something. Weird he didn’t take the shot that presented itself in that case.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Better finishing and that game ends 4 or 5-0.

I'd be surprised if Frank lampard cared about his birthplace

 

[no_loyalty]

Should have been a comfortable win, bloody nerve wracking at the end. Massive 3 points, on our way.

 

[stupot07]

Really good first half, second half was a mixed bag. But with a bit of luck and some better finishing could easily have one 3 or 4 one.

 

[Grendel]

The way lampard has turned the season around is incredible

Albion probably have a harder run in than us .. I'm hopeful at this point we will make it

He's he had a full on pr campaign from the club all week.

Hopefully it's an eye opener and he will get some minutes in the u21s and learn the system.

He’s a winner. He was as a player and desperately wants to be as a manager. The coaches he’s bought in are tactically miles ahead of what we had previously

Don't think anybody could have expected this form.

 

[pusbccfc]

Just seen the replay of their goal and he's completely offside, his entire body.

Yep. People slating players when the one man to blame for that goal is the lino who spent the second half trying to cash in his 2-2 bet.

I loved how he stopped the quick throw in for them by kicking the ball on the pitch. Very clever and quick thinking.

Their goal was offside.

 

[Gleneagles65]

Oxford, Stoke and Derby next 3 matches. Nothings a given in this league but they are perfect fixtures for a team in fine form.

Well offside too.

 

[Tommo1993]

Round of applause for the fucking lino with the broken arms

They are all teams with something to play for so not going to be easy

Don't jinx it.

Yeah that was class. For me it’s the improvement in some of the individuals that’s impressed me the most. Torp, Rudoni, Kitching, Simms, EMC and Dovin have all gone up a level

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

Round of applause for the fucking lino with the broken arms

He was about 2 feet offside at least.

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

Fully deserved the win, first half was really good but second was OK, should of been 4-5 but fuck me we've beaten Swansea and Preston in the same season!

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Grimes for 3.5m is a bargain

In the same month!

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Great win. First half outstanding. Second half just OK but still could have had a couple if our finishing was a touch better.

20 mins we were great and you can’t legislate for incompetence from the official

 

[clint van damme]

Another big, big result.
Great performance.
Another huge game next week.

 

[Alkhen]

Felt uncomfortable in the last 20 but in reality yet again it's taken a huge stroke of luck for a team to break us down. That was miles offside.

Can't remember the last goal we've conceded which wasn't a fluke, odd individual, mistake, own goal or bad decision from the Lino

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

In the same month!

If we beat the baggies this season then I can fully see the end of the world happening.... Hopefully we're promoted first

 

[Ccfcisparks]

as annoying as the Preston goal was it won me £150
