Probably our best performance of the season and at the time of posting not even one full page of comments.


Most of us are still stunned and unable to articulate our feelings in words.
Either that or everybody is still in the pub celebrating and drunk! 😁

Love it. ‘Never been Clifton's biggest fan’. Bizarre thing to say in your summary as he’s been utterly brilliant for us and an unchallengeable success story in relation to nurturing and creating and evolving a player from the academy/local area who goes on to repay that investment in spades and then some. Makes your opinion about as relevant as a Kwasi Kwarteng critique of Keynesian economic theory, or a befuddled illiterate child trying to describe the concept of free will.

What a player! What a club. What superb and visionary management. UTM

Listened on the radio but did see a (very poor quality) vid of the short corner goal....WOW!
Just stunning movement, execution and invention. Amazing display.

It was a fantastic performance once we settled after the first few minutes.

It was like you see them playing in the videos of them training- one and two touch, keeping the ball on the floor, and basically the opposition could not handle it.

I can hardly remember one long hoisted ball (because the players obviously realised with no target man/recognised strikers it would be a waste of time).

It is hard to imagine we would get that much room in a league game, but having found a way to play that is exciting and exhilarating should the manager stick with it? The injury situation might mean he has to and I don't think too many would complain.

We created more chances in that one game than a lot of games combined.

I like Ryan Taylor a lot. But today showed that what defenders hate most is movement and pace and, above all, freedom.

With the shackles off, we have a very good set of players. When we get one dimensional, less so, because they look predictable. More movement, less shackles please.

Easily our most consistent performer since before we were relegated. Lucky to still have him and that's only because he's a local boy.

My brother and nephew both said they were going to the pub to celebrate that performance, and neither were planning to before the game.

They are probably still there.

Listen mate, I know it’s an opinion. Absolutely the place to share it is on this forum. It’s why it’s here. But, if that opinion is palpably stupid, expect to have it challenged.
