    Horrible conditions but we should have been 3-0 up at half time. I couldn't judge the second half chances as I was on row A in the Cricket Field stand and had no perception of the play but we seemed to be dancing around their goal mouth. And for my what-if this week, if we'd beaten Leeds at Turf moor we'd be top tonight.

    We were in Row Y of the Longside Upper. (Obviously my security detail didn?t want to give away where we would be sitting pre match). It is a heck of a climb to get there but you get a really great view of the action and you keep out of the weather. We are still only third but we are keeping tight on the Blades and Leeds. If we keep on winning games thankfully the what ifs won?t matter a damn.

    You haven't told us, did the girls enjoy their day out with Grandad Outwood ? That's the main thing.

    Of course as my security detail it is their job to protect Outwood One at all times but yes they enjoyed their day out. We had a great view of Zian’s sublime free kick. A few more goals to boost our goal difference would have been nice but we had the 3 points in a must win game. I had reminded them before kick off that in the last 107 games at Championship level we had only lost 5 times just once at home. That is now 108 games.Our Happy Place Turf Moor.

    Bristol are a team fighting for a play off position but they didn't really trouble us apart from the one shot straight at JT which cancelled out Anthony's similar shot. Win the next 7 and we're up, not a big ask is it?

    ps. Nice of Scott Twine to applaud the Burnley fans as he left the field.

    Make no mistake we should have won this game at a canter, we moved the ball around quickly, no silly unnecessary passes for passing sake, Edwards has lit a bonfire under the team, all they want to do is attack and score goals. Great stuff and I will be surprised if we don't go up automatically now.

    When I boarded the plane for the Canary Islands 6 weeks ago we were 7 points behind Leeds. Only goal difference separates us now.

    I was merely saying that within the space of six weeks Leeds inevitable promotion now looks anything but. If it will help I'll fly out tomorrow!

    It's the old story though isn't it, if Anthony scored only half the chances he misses, he we wouldn't be playing for us would he.
