    Massive win

    Absolutely massive win today,proud of the way they stuck at it ..Mee had a very poor game ,but Popeye pulled him out with some great saves,not more so than the Steptoe penalty save..

    A much needed three points and against a top three team.. Thought we sat back too much in the last 10 mins but we hung on ..

    Cannot agree with you more. I would have taken a point before the game but as you say the win was massive. However, it should not hide the fact that we need the squad freshening up. Mee was terrible was at fault for the goal and the penalty, although Hendrick had a better game he drifts from his position too often. I actually thought that Westwood was fantastic he covered more ground than ever. I think Cork looked leggy abd the game passed him by so a couple of new faces is needed.

    A really, really great win, but we still need a new right back and two central midfielders.

    That was a pleasant surprise, I thought we played quite well in the 2nd half, which I wasn't expecting.

    You know Alfie, with all the excitement of seeing us actually win a game, I'd forgotten all about our little bets. Best I can see is 13/2 with Betfair, I'll sleep on it and think about topping up tomorrow at that price. One swallow does not a summer make.

    Great afternoon!

    Fantastic match, belting atmosphere and decent pie and coffee.

    We really got our mojo back in the second half and Leicester can have few complaints.

    More of the same on Wednesday please.

    I reckon we need a couple more in this window. It's a pity that McNeil isn't allowed free rein up front - if we get the right signings then we can utilise him where he is most effective instead of being a cover for Taylor.

    Four more wins needed, let's get them ASAP.

    Down to three wins now, or two and some draws!
