Excellent recovery from an awful start. It's getting quite interesting at the top, shame Bolton keep winning!! Coyr.
The only stats that matter are that we won 3-2. A great result, to come back after conceding 2 early goals, I saw we were 2-0 down and thought, ah well that blip had to come some time.
A good sign that we don't wilt and hard to believe but we are 4 pts off top spot with a game in hand.

Great comeback against one of the better sides...excellent on both counts. Christmas points total accomplished. Can we consolidate against against Peterborough? All is not lost if we don’t but it’d be a brilliant start to 2024 if we can win the battle of two sure to be weary sides on Monday.
Stupid challenge for the penalty. 2nd goal, their player was looking for contact, felt it and went down, a "manufactured" free kick. Then Wildsmith set the wall to cover his right hand post and took the left himself. Beaten on that very post. He was flawless after that. Last 30 of the first half we were the better side and it was a question of when, not if, we would score. It was a surprise that our 1st came so late in the half. They were suspect on crosses and we exploited that 2nd half, pwnning them inside their own half for what felt like 40 of the 45 minutes and deservedly got 2 more goals to win the game. Tommo scored with a header, I wonder what the odds on that were? 😉 Cash got the winner and 3 points in the bag. That's now 2 very accomplished performances on the trot. A 3rd similar one against Posh on Monday should see us as serious promotion candidates along with Pompey and Bolton. Same XI 2 games running, Warne's on hatttick... Will the 3rd go in? Based on his track record, there will be changes. We troubled them down the right and had them in absolute knots down the left. More of the same, come Monday, and we're on our way...
