[Frostie]

Goals certainly change games. Once in front it never really looked in doubt. Very professional performance. 🩵

Allen another great game

 

[Garlana86]

Basically what happened to rovers today has happened to us for large parts of the season, loads of the ball loads of chances but not clinical, and the other team go down the other end and score from their first chance. Feels weird being on the other end of it, positive karma we were due.

 

[Bigelvesy]

Nice to do the double over a team!

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Not pretty at times and some ropey moments still but for the most part we're starting to look a lot more assured in games. Back to back clean sheets is a positive sign of things to come.

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

18 points from 11 for Lampard. Play-off form innit.

 

[PVA]

First half absolutely shite, but the second half was really good.

Nice little bit of momentum building now, let's keep it going.

I'll say it again though, what a fucking difference it makes having a functioning goalkeeper between the sticks.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Dovin and Allen joint MoM for me.

 

[clint van damme]

Really good performance and another clean sheet.
Got to be happy with that.
Home forms been coming together nicely, hopefully this is the start of improvements on the Road.
Though I'm going Swansea and haven't seen usz win away all season.

 

[shmmeee]

Think it might be time for a few forum snipers to accept Lampard has had a pretty good start and generally a positive effect on the team. First time in a while I'm actually looking upwards.

The football is fucking terrible but you can’t argue with the results since new year.

 

[Tommo1993]

Sorry boys but I’m gonna have to slag off previous management for the clownish decision leaving Dovin and Kitching out in the cold. Ridiculous choice.

Well don’t fucking go then Clint

 

[Paul Anthony]

Great result.

First half wasn't great, had to soak up a lot of pressure. Second half, thought we controlled it well. Shudder to think about what would have happened if we'd had anyone else but Dovin in goal tonight, kept us in that first half and that allowed us to have a reasonably comfortable second half.

Second half tonight it wasn’t

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

Cracking result that! Looked solid at the back with Dovin making good saves, Simms needed that goal and BTA, What a difference since Kitch and Allen come back into the squad

 

[Diogenes]

Excellent effort from all round, it might not have been pretty but they got stuck in and put a proper shift in.

If we had two or three performances like like this before now we could have easily been sniffing around the playoffs now.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Am I right in saying we have nothing to whinge at tonight again …

 

[Noble]

Is the relegation battle off then?

 

[eyesee]

we have ourselves a goalkeeper!

 

[steve101]

Can't fault Lampard's in-game tactics. Sakamoto and Eccles did well coming on and sured us up when we were looking stretched.

 

[CovveeBreak]

Unbeaten since Sheaf's injury

The ref?

 

[shmmeee]

Second half tonight it wasn’t

Was OK when we went 541, but the game was won by then tbh

 

[Balli001]

If we beat Watford on saturday we are only 3 points behind them and they are 8th...

 

[Danceswithhorses]

Well played boys...thoroughly professional performance.
Got the second, then shut up shop successfully.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

The ref?

Didn’t think he was that bad tbh

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Is the relegation battle off then?

Make it 3 in a row this weekend and I'd have to say it is

 

[Gint11]

Solid performance. Lots to be pleased about. A brilliant win and a clean sheet. Dare I say it’s turning….

still have Wright, EMC and Sheaf to return

 

[covcity4life]

 

[skyblueelephant76]

Didn’t think he was that bad tbh

He gave them everything first half and missed the clear foul on MVE

 

[CCFCSteve]

The fact is we look more solid and he’s getting a lot more out of several players

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Dovin clear MOTM for me. He kept us in that game which allowed us to push on second half.

If Collins was in goal we probably would've been 2-0 down by HT.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Haven’t watched replays yet but if SIMM’s got an assist wouldn’t BTA be offside?

 

[Nick]

Think that's 3 goal stopping good saves from dovin?

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

The ref?

Ah yes that idiot
