Happy with that in the end. Got to change the tactics against Fleetwood ffs fluck this 3 upfront shite you can still play down the flanks with hunt and Johnson without having a pair off players stood there waiting .
Byers has won his shirt on Tuesday meaning play Gregory and kamberi in a front 2 .

3 clean sheets aswell is out off this world for us !! Let's hope Farrell can stay fit for the rest of the season .

Good stuff on a bad time for me at the moment .
Sister-in-law died of cancer yesterday 58 years old .
And my father's having triple by pass op on Monday after being neglected by the NHS for a year for a simple op which resulted in a heart attack .

Sorry to hear about your sister-in-law. Tell your father to stay positive, I had triple bypass and while it is a major operation its fairly routine these days. He will be sore as hell after but if he can get active quickly it's not that bad hopefully.

Much better second half, the difference for me was Wing getting forward more to support the attack, also gave Bannan a bit more space. Also typical performance from Green, looks good in the build up but no end product!! Johnson did ok but Brown looked more lively when he came on and Byers did ok and made us stronger in midfield. Kamberi worked hard, held the ball up well and won headers, was too isolated though, Gregory didn't do anything better when he came on but did make some decent runs in the box, one of them created the space for our second goal.

Not sure Peacock-Farrell touched the penalty, it hit the post but had it been on target he would have saved it anyway.

Sorry, Imre.

NHS is on its knees, sadly.

Hoping for a fast recovery!

Thanks for the comments ...rough as fluck for my father-in-law 88 years old i can't imagine having 2 kids myself seeing them to the grave.
We all want to expand on life but is it worth it ? My answer is no i wouldn't be able to accept the pain .
For God sake take me in my 60s or 70s do not pass go !

Sorry to hear your news Imre! Hope your Dad has a speedy recovery!

Well my season ticket was delivered late Friday! Hundreds were not. So I got to the Jubilee club (Clay whhels Lane) for the ritual 4 pint pre match warm up! Got in the ground for 2.40, whicj
H is early for me. No queue at the turnstiles, but loads queuing for ticket office, right to the gates.

First half was not great, but there were glimpses of what we were trying to do and what was to come.

Second half was much better, the only negative is that Green does not seem to be on the same wave length as the other 10.

Thought Byers and Gregory were excellent when they came on and really changed the game!

Looking forward to Tuesday night now, has to be 3 more points, we need to let rteams know, that they are not in for an easy ride when they come to Hillsborough.

I fully expect to see a few changes to the starting 11, I hope we go with 2 up top, but I can't see it happening

The way i see i think he will keep this 4-3-3 shape which I hate and bring in sow for green and possibly Gregory for kamberi.

What I did notice was how deep our midfield 3 was ( bad ) and how the top 3 never lost shape almost waiting for that quick ball to counter ( good ).
Fleetwood played with 5 in midfield and lost which again backs up my theory off the same kind of tactics will be used because there hardly good enough to say let's fight them in the middle off the pitch and get bogged down.
3 pts is a must to give us breathing space at Rotherham on Saturday to test how much we've improved since the last time we played them , and i pretty much expect a cagey 0-0 there like at Charlton which like I've said before it's winning all you're home games and draw all you're away games will get us promotion .

Incedently this will be our last home game for a while as we take on Rotherham and morcambe away and from what I gather the Sunderland home game will be postponed for international break moving on to Plymouth away after meaning 3 away games on the bounce .
Next home game after will be Shrewsbury at home followed by another home game against Ipswich .
