Wow what a great team performance we looked so good going forward thought we could of had more.
Saki looked very promising and gave us something extra along with Kirk.
Hard to pick anytime out because to a man they was all excellent but albie was brilliant it was easily his best game, he looks like he is loving the role and belief being shown in him by garner.
clayden and Kirk linked up very well.
Don’t want to get to excited on the back of one win but promising signs.
Moving Morgan to RB was a hedge. Almost expecting him to do the Milner role through tenacity and ball playing skill.
Meant McGrandles and Payne could get mins, while Clare taken off as a precaution (I hope).
Answering that and @Henry Irving we moved Morgan to right back because they had zero attacking threat on their left. He became like a right sided quarter back. The best passer in the team got the ball without anyone within 10 yards of him, every time. He didn't have to make a single tackle.
Wow. So as I mentioned in the preview, it was my first game with both of my daughters since 2009. For those of you with young children, hang on in there - it’s so much better when they’re in their 20s. Had such a laugh in the pub that I was thinking okay, never mind what happens in the game, I’ve had a lovely evening.
It turns out we have the best team currently in world football. What a performance. I don’t care about the penalty and sending off. Garner has got them playing some really lovely stuff. Sean Clare’s goal was a magical moment, as was Miles’s goal.
The two of us who have been to hundreds of games were trying to talk the 20 year old down and saying that it’s not always like that, but she wasn’t having it, going so far as to shout, ‘I just love football!’
Love reading stuff like this. More than a game, more than a club.
Credit where its due I Thought Stockley wasn't going to be able to play Garnerball but he put in a good performance tonight - should have scored with one of his headers but think the keeper made a very good save for the one that Rak Sakyi scored from.
Also pleased with Kirk I thought he looked a luxury we couldn't afford before it finally clicked tonight.
One of those games I wish would never end. We were excellent across the pitch today. Lad from Palace looks like the real deal, I’m sure they’ll destroy our promotion chances by recalling him in January and then sending him to Swansea.
Having nailed all 3 results so far (albeit with a draw/win or draw/lose tag) tonight Matthew we’ll be Brazil1970 and win 3-0 or 3-1 and return to our rightful place of 5th in league one
So close it was Brazil 1986 (Josimar) , 5-1 and we’re 6th
Brilliant performance, all that you could wish for … the football gods looked kindly on us and just as I’m almost happy the scummiest, spawniest , c***iest, jammiest filth fest manage to get two og’s in millwall time but no they never score late .
I know he looked slightly lost in the weekend game but signs here of just how good Leaburn could be. Quicker than you might think from first impressions, uses his size very well to hold off the defender (without resorting to cheap elbows Shearer style), finds the space and while he was maybe lucky that the ball fell just right it was a lovely finish for all that.
Very impressive work for a young lad and hopefully he's going to be here long enough to turn into a real lynchpin of the side with time.
Not enough wanking off after that ping from Clare , I mean our fannying football of recent times when everyone’s too scared to shoot and crab passing over to you , no to you etc …. if you don’t buy a ticket gentlemen
Top bins , postage stamp (on the wrong side) just a thing of beauty
That was the most enjoyable 90minutes of football in a long long while, fluid attacking football and even with scoring 5 we could of had a good few more. The most pleasing aspect is how it all clicked every player knew where a team mate was and had confidence to try things when going forward, I think the move with JRS breaking down the right, inside to fraser who dinked it onto an overlapping Albie who's cross just missed Stockley, it was top top football, and a result to match, but please please please can the decision makers lower ticket prices, performances like that will attract people to come and watch until they find out they have to shell out £30+ lets go low on the ticket prices and get more people in and watching performances like this!

Edit unless you mean the away game
clayden and Kirk linked up very well.
Genius.
Also pleased with Kirk I thought he looked a luxury we couldn't afford before it finally clicked tonight.
This season is going to be a lot of fun!!
First time Golfie Jnr has seen us score 5 in the flesh.
Must be a first win at home, with a crowd, under floodlights for years.
5 different goalscorers
Adkins wanted 23 clean sheets.....and it got him the sack. Top 6 and only 1 clean sheet so far. Shows that scoring goals is more important.
Clare's thunderbolt is up there with Page's for goal of the season against Plymouth.
Fantastic performance by the lads, the movement off the ball and the angles they created for a pass were top draw.
Great performances all round with a special mention to Albie Morgan.
Very impressive work for a young lad and hopefully he's going to be here long enough to turn into a real lynchpin of the side with time.

Best performance since Plymouth at home last season? Still the last time we won a game were neither Stockley nor Aneke played IIRC
First 5 or more since Plymouth away?
Can we play you every week?
