On the Trust coach on way out of Rotherham, voice gone and cannot believe that second half. Referee was rubbish and we were crap first half.
No idea how we will put out a decent team Saturday, sad seeing the ambulance leaving in front of us, do Hope Thomas is ok.

Wilson is shoulder, could keep him out for significant amount of time.

Unsure on Thomas but very concerned.

King and Phillips in then! :p

Being serious if they are both out for any length of time we're going to have to get decent replacements in to have any hope of sneaking into the playoffs. Were Rotherham playing dirty or was it just bad luck to pick up 2 injuries?

Great result against one of the more underrated sides in the division.

This is the moment of the season we are all dreading where the injuries and suspensions start to tally up. Good luck Pressley.

Great second half performance, great post match interview with Pressley. When he said it was not a great performance but it was a great result and a great reaction to dealing what was in front of us.

It brings it home when he reminds people how many of the players are 19, 20, 21 and still learning.

Well done city big points today lets hope Callum and Connor aren't too bad.

It was one of them special games. To concede the penalty at 2-1 in added time, and win 3-1, unthinkable :D

So proud of what SP & NMc & his staff have done and so proud of the courage, determination & fighting spirit shown by this tightly knit squad.

A Very Happy & Successful New Year to them ALL, along of course with ALL Sky Blue fans.

Just got home. Sorry for the lack of updates after so long, bloody iPhones! Battery has a mind of its own! Seems you were kept up to date on what was happening though.

Definitely a game of two halves. We were lacklustre in the first half and couldn't get into the game. After Adams hit the post, we couldn't get into the game and Murphy, who was outstanding all game, kept the score down.

Second half was completely different. Players shown real commitment to get a result and I was not expecting a 3-1 scoreline.

Ref, even after me saying he was doing ok (which I have since retracted ;) ) was terrible. Gave us nothing, and them a lot more, but even sometimes they got frustrated with him, none more so than our penalty decision. It was clearly outside the box and I don't know what the Lino said to convince him it was inside, but it worked, but he got that call right, which was one a few.

The red card was another right call, whether it was a penalty or free kick.

Fair play to Baker (and Phillips for not claiming the goal) for his composure to get the third. To hit a ball on target from that distance takes skill.

Hoping Callum and Connor are ok, although ref made another wrong call with the Callum one (didn't see what happened to Connor)

Didnt like the Rotherham team or fans. Wilson clearing in some pain on the floor, to just ignore him and play on and then for the fans to boo him after five minutes of treatment.

Rotherham are a big strong team and they tried to bully us which worked until half time. Wouldnt call them dirty but i hate that kind of football and it does lead to injuries to opposition players like today. Also Rotherham is such a shithole must be horrible to live there.

The ground is alright though
