I'm shitting diamonds right now but I'll take that any day of the week!

That fecker Wilson ! How dare he keep a clean sheet and prove some posters on here wrong that he's crap ?

 

[Ashdown]

So messy but thank fuck and we move on !

 

[HadjiChippo]

Clean sheet and back into the top 6 for another week. Plus gained on WBA, dragging that 5th place back into play.

Happy, 4 points from 2 hard away games with a depleted squad.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

First clean sheet of 2024!!!

 

[TomRad85]

Thought we were pretty shite but who cares. 3 glorious points.
Good finish by Simms.
Thomas MOTM and its not even close.

Bobby Thomas was unreal

 

[mark82]

Have to say we were very lucky today. Not a good performance, particularly in the second half. Lucky Stoke are not very good.

 

[Matt smith]

That’s a huge 3 points

 

[bigfatronssba]

I like games like this.

3 pts, but a good reminder that if we want wins we have to work hard for them

 

[Darth Robins]

First clean sheet of 2024!!!

He's magic, you know...

 

[JSL]

Norwich's goal difference has had a boost today. Were were well in front on GD to surrounding teams but its getting closer

 

[Esoterica]

Not played well since the Leicester game but we keep picking up points.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

That was like a visit to the dentist for a painful extraction, but at least your happy when the pain disappears!

 

[Matt smith]

Thomas and binks

 

[stupot07]

Get in, we were poor and largely outplayed second half but only stat that matters is 1-0.

Thomas clear MOTM with honourable mention to Simms who led the line well and scored the winner.

Important result with both Norwich and hull winning

 

[covcity4life]

Get in!!! 3 big points. We didn't really play well but this shows that we are just a better team than most these days.

Thomas, binks and jDS had good games imo. Wright was poor. Tavares was ok

More players rested and more points picked up. Bring on the mega weekend!

 

[Liquid Gold]

4 points off those two away games is fucking nuts. What a club.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Take that.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

We made it hard on ourselves to win this. My heart is still racing

 

[EalingSB]

Excellent week without hitting top gear. Came from behind to beat Millwall, last-gasp equaliser at Plymouth and three points today without being at our best which is what it's all about.

We never dominated but Wilson didn't have a save to make which means a much-needed clean sheet. Pleased for Simms, took his goal really well and hopefully full on confidence with so many important games coming up.

Don't think I've ever seen a player with such a differential between what he does well and what he does badly as Wright. His statistics are decent for the season and he can be a match-winner but some of his touches/passes/decisions today were baffling. Need more Olé and less WTF.

It’s not luck that some teams are worse than others in a pyramid system

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Huge win but we really must be better, struggled against two of the worse teams in the division in Millwall and Stoke.

 

[ptr]

Godden asking their manager if they need a striker

 

[Jamesimus]

Rested some big players, away win, clean sheet, another game managing to pick up points even without Sheaf. Good brave calls by Robins.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

On to the next one now. Sign of a decent team...play poor, grind out results. Stoke were poor though. Should've killed them off in the first 15 mins

 

[play_in_skyblue_stripes]

Getting another Kingfisher Blu bottle to celebrate in south India! They should rename it Sky Blu.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Plymouth and Stoke away and we've picked up 4 points. Would have taken that all day. Have to win ugly sometimes.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Bobby Thomas was unreal

He's rubbish apparently

 

[Johnnythespider]

A win, not convincing but a win, take it and on to a big game Friday

 

[Mr Panda]

Great result away. Midfield was absolutely knackered so we lost control. We’re struggling with the lack of options.

Jay Dasilva had a strong game

 

[Astute]

Happy with that. Wilson gets the clean sheet after hearing on here he is shite and Simms 2 goals in 2 games.......

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

Fantastic. 3 points and a clean sheet. It was like one of those games after an international break. Below par but we move on.

I can confirm that the Stoke commentators are either deluded or Stoke have been incredibly bad prior to todays game.
