I despair sometimes when reading "Back from the game" posts. Some people are intent on picking holes in very good performances, and wins by more than a 1-0 margin.
I was one of the lucky ones who watched the game yesterday, and it was a fantastic performance, there were some things we could have done better, but you can't take anything away from the system or the way we played for 90 minutes. It was clear that Tabb made a huge difference, his positive passes, through balls towards Long were a delight to watch, as was the total job that Long did on Bikey, he was fantastic and Bikey was pretty awful to be honest.
One for prostak, how was that a clueless performance? How? The system we played worked, everyone knew, and did their job very well in my opinion, I know quite a few of you think differently.
No, it doesn't paper over the cracks of the last two games, but it goes a serious way to showing that we can get better, and we can challenge the top teams in this division, and to say we didn't show that shows you either weren't watching the game, or you are determined to pick holes in absolutely everything.
Our support, for a couple of hundred fans was very good, and I can't think of many (away) fans who went away thinking they hadn't got value for money.
By the way, I also think 4-0 didn't flatter us, we could easily have had more, we seemed to make far more chances in yesterdays game hence 10, yes 10 shots on target, for an away side.
So stop being pessimistic, yes we can still improve, and it wasn't 100%, but come on, give the team and the manager some credit.
