What was that phone torch light nonsense all about? Anyone over the age of 12 doing that is not welcome back. 

Anyone over 12 getting angry over it (or the fish) mustn’t have much else going on in their lives

I hate to say it, but I hope we don't put out a full strength side for the PJT. It's not where our focus should be.

Really? What else do we have to play for this season?

We aren’t going up and we shouldn’t be thinking about going down.

All we have left is a possible day at Wembley.

I will not be happy if we don’t go for it Tuesday with the best possible team. 

We have almost a week after Hartlepool until Portsmouth plenty of time to rest.

Lose Tuesday and season is over. 

@RonnieMoore will erase your doubts.

What was the crowd? 

According to Rich Cawley just over 21k, which I think is a tad over the top. Yes the AC Stand was about 80% full across all blocks but plenty of empty seats in the Covered End Upper. I would say nearer 17k, seeing as Fleetwood look like they only bought a few hundred. 

As for the game itself - most had already been said but I want to reiterate about our tactic of 50 yard diagonal balls by our central defenders. NO. Leave that sort of passing to the midfield. They should be the ones pulling the strings & making incisive passes. 

I'd put Gilbey back in the team.....but unfortunately it would be for Morgan. As that wont happen now he's scored it will have to be (for now) for Lee. CBT is better on the right & hopefully once Castillo is fit & healthy he can play on the left. 

Looking at the results nothing much has changed. We are still 6 points off relegation & 13 from the play offs. Bloody good job we won otherwise the shit really would have hit the fan on here.

Decent win against pretty poor opposition. 

Defense won us the game with Dobson, kept us well in control of the game and finished off enough chances to win. 

Let's see if we can carry it on against Portsmouth. 

Fleetwood won 4 out of their last 6 including beating Rotherham last time out

They sit 20th with 7 wins, 7 draws and 12 losses. 

Away from home they've won 2 games all season. 

We’ve only just made it to 9 wins ourselves…

First 35 minutes was a repeat of last Saturday at Cheltenham. Bag of crap! Better last 10 in that half, but still unacceptable.

Second half better but even at 1up you was still on edge until Gilbey came on for the Woeful performance by Lee, then things changed for the better. 

Certain individuals still need a kick up the arse, as better sides willl go through us on that!

Bit like a dodgy Indian takeaway, going through us I mean!!🤢😰

You need to shop elsewhere then sunshine! 

Glad and a little relieved to get 3 points, but at times I thought the standard of football was pretty poor but I suppose that's league one for you. 

It is pretty amazing to me how we have a tendency to overrate our own.  Albie has been horrible all year.  He was dire in the first half and showed no effort.  There was one point Clare received the ball when switched with only one Fleetwood player in front of him.  DJ made a run up line looking for the long ball. Clare pointed for Albie to fill the space out wide or Albie could have cut back in the space in the middle for a short pass.  What did Albie do, he literally stood right behind the defender and didn’t run or even jog anywhere to try to receive the ball.  There were multiple instances of lack of effort in the first half.  He definitely played well in the second half but one floated set piece to the tallest player on the pitch and a goal which should have been saved is not like he bossed the midfield.  One half of good play and our fans are now saying he is undroppable.  It makes no sense.  Lee is absolutely in a funk but we are at our best this year when Gilbey brought that energy to the box to box midfield role. Albie second half performance was probably enough to retain his spot for the next match but the number of people on here thinking he has turned the corner is crazy.  God I just realized that sound like Golfie.

Tedious first half, second better and a much needed 3 point clean sheet win. Into the Papa Johns…

I'm surprised how many 'fans' don't understand the importance of 3 points, after a complete rut, which we've tried to ignore after JJ was hired as full time Manager.

First half was poor, 2nd half we deserved the win. An important win considering recent poor results but this will be a forgettable season

The bbc website records a 5 man midfield … what was the formation ?

 Same as usual.

3-5-2 with Dobson in the holding role.

MacGillivray
Clare Dobson Famewo

Jaiyesimi Morgan Dobson Lee B.Taylor

Burstow Aneke

Dobson may have been everywhere, but pretty sure he wasn't in the back 3 AND midfield

Just leaving the pub, awful first half, purposeful second. 

Really happy for Albie Morgan today, I thought he played ok last week and did well today, to miss a chance, that he made for himself and then covert one moments later was important. 

A good day overall and onto  Hartlepool Tuesday
