We've stopped leaking goals, not lost in three games. Feels like Robins reverted back to how we played for a chunk of our first season back up; sit tight, be a bit cautious, pick up points.

Here's hoping with some better players than that season, we dial things up as we go and as players come back (O'Hare, Hamer, Kelly) and Palmer gets fitter. Need two CBs in Jan, though.

4 points behind WBA and Middlesboro, with 3 home games in hand.
At the start of the season that would have sounded amazing, but as it is currently, Wilder and Bruce must be close to P45s.

A very hard earned win. But a win it is and confidence grows. O'Hare back next week maybe to add to the upward swing in the dressing room and two clean sheets in a row tbf, however fortunate we got!
Shout out to Palmer who had a good game, Bidwell who can defend and has a bit of noose. Dabo improving all the time. Would like to see Kelly back in the middele as soon as to steady the ship and provide extra cover just ahead of the defenders which he is good at.
Not a great performance as we stumble forward and pick up confidence. We will get better, which is the main positive to take from today.

OK that. Scrappy and nervy and second half we’d basically decided to sit on the edge of our box and defend the lead, but considering that did well with no Hamer no O’Hare and Sheaf having probably his worst game of the season.

The managers of both of those will be under pressure of the sack by January.

Finally a little grit. Ref giving them everything didn't help much. A first win on the board.
