I'll take your word for it. I've only watched it on my phone. No complaints here though. :)

Unless you have a 3210 and who watched it in snake format you should still be able to see

For me this game is a 4-3 win not 4-2. I know I should be happy and of course I am but that disallowed goal was due to ridiculous mistakes caused by nerves. Robin's still need to work on their mentality


That said great away win!!! We are in the title race!
Christ you’re one hell of a negative arsehole.

Why were we a little fortunate ?
This is a great win, a massive win, recent results made us hot favourites to win so potential banana skin, 2-0 up early doors, ship a goal in but up a couple of gears and put the game to bed, that’s what good teams do. There seems to be more focus on here about their disallowed goal, cheating twat tried to con referee and punched the ball in getting himself sent off.

Agree, we were in no way fortunate. Decent performance, albeit with some negatives. Agree with Robins that it's not the best we've played but we didn't need to.

Where are you getting this from! I’m not saying we unjustly won. I’m just saying we need to manage games better like any good team does. I have said that this a young team that will learn as they go.

But look at what’s Portsmouth did to us scored then blocked us out. We need to learn to do that too. We aren’t going to score 4 every game.

It’s a great win at a bogey team. But im sure robins will say the same as me.
You gotta remember some fans on here love cov but are ignorant about the game.

We are superior to them but need to remember not to show it

Fantastic result, took our chances but they were proper shit tonight. Thought Brown had a decent game and Chaplin was superb.

Loved the ref tonight too!

I went with my mate, an old manc who's a United fan. He picked JCH out straight away, he's been excellent for the last few weeks

Most of our fans are clueless

I think I'll just refer to you as imbecile.
I've been a City fan for my whole life you cretinous c**t.

Dont kick off with fellow fans because they are annoyed we nearly went to 4-3 then. It's a small point end of day!

We're consistent. I've never typed (or even said) that before.

Great result. Sounded like we did get a few decisions go our way but we've had our fair share of awful decisions. Hopefully now the forwards self-confidence is growing and the shooting boots are on.

Let's hope we can make it five on Sat but it's supposed to be getting cold over the weekend and we tend not to be great in the cold.
It's called "Ben Stevenson Syndrome"

Doncaster and Accrington at home now HUGE games 4 points minimum...

Fingers crossed a few more numbers through the door with our current form.
Doncaster we can pay down a marker. There is nonwigan or Blackburn this year. League 1 is there for the taking

Well it’s a fact. So I don’t know how else to respond to be honest!
History and statistics back the Point if you want to win TITLES. That you need to keep clean sheets.

I tend to find that over the last few year it's teams that score lots of goals that win titles. They also tend to not concede that many due to not letting the other team get a look in but (Leicester aside) it's not teams scraping 1-0 wins like with Arsenal that get the silverware. It generates a fear factor that clean sheets just don't.

You also tend to find teams that don't score many at the bottom end of the table, even if they don't concede that many either. We've had seasons where our defensive record wasn't that bad but were close to going down because we weren't putting the ball in the net.
