    Thought Gilbert played really well
    Agree. But Ramsay also stood out today I thought.

    Of the missing players, I thought Lloyd Jones looked a bit stiff ( and not in the Kenneth Williams sense) as he walked up to collect his award.

    Small looked ok. I don't remember seeing Berry.
    he was there in training kit, hard to tell how fit he is, but if he can walk, he'll be out there next Saturday
    Sunday hopefully 🤣

    Anyone noticeably absent from the end of season presentations?
    Yup unfortunately Small nowhere to be seen. I wonder if he has got a move sorted and we have seen the last of him
    Small was there. Got a song and clapped back

    He collected an award in person so yes he was there.
    He sent his body double. 
    NJ said he had to rest and not over exert himself. 
    I saw him with a Costa at Bluewater yesterday!

    Campbell is a major concern heading into the play offs his performances over the last 4 games have been very below par ….

    If we have everyone back the the subs  will surely be Gilbert, probably Mitchell and Watson, but which strikers will he choose, Chucks probably, but who else? 
    Chuks only available for the second leg. It's all set up for him to dispossess Leahy and smash it into the Covered End goal.
    I just hope he smashes Leahy and gets away with it

    Shout out to the Burton fans who, despite losing, were just partying the whole game and loved the banana conga!
    Glad we have Wycombe as did not fancy Stockport in the semis but we can beat them at Wembley on a wide pitch with Small/Campbell. Wycombe will lick their wounds and let's remember that a wounded animal is a dangerous one so no complacency but if we turn up and play as we have then Wembley here we come.....
    Conversely, Leyton Orient may enjoy the Wembley pitch. They looked a decent footballing side. I was pretty impressed with them v Manchester City in cup too.

    Wondered when you'd pipe up with another load of drivel.
    I don't ever comment but he is just an attention seeker. Best ignored.

    Par.
    4th highest budget.  Finished 4th.
    Big improvement on previous seasons.
    Now win the play offs please.

    Nice to watch a game with no real pressure. Shout out to Mitchell for recovering from a terrible start, playing a big part in Godden's goal and getting one himself. As others have said, no bad performances and was great to see Gilbert full of energy and invention. I think Berry starts over him if fit but what a great option to be able to call on.

    The game was won when the subs came on but all did well. Cracking effort from Fullah and Kanu looked the sharpest he's been for some time.

    "No technical ability" Anderson looked full of technical ability as well as getting the tackles in. 

    Godden is on such great form that he'll be a handful for anyone we play before the season is out.

    Very happy with Wycombe in the semis, just need NJ to make sure the players approach it right and we have a great chance of progressing.

    chatting to some Wrexham fans after our defeat ..  they reckoned Orient was the best team to visit them all season .. depends of course what mood/form both teams were in on the day, AND opinions are only opinions after all

    Came down from Nottinghamshire for this one and really pleased I have broken my 2025 record of not seeing us win!
    Good performance all round and hard to pick a man of the match. Was impressed with Mitchell after that awful start and Golden seems to get better every time I see him. Was also impressed with Fullah who really seems to have an eye for goal. He would have got one it Mbick hadn't deflected it wide!
    Great atmosphere from a full Covered End and respect to the Burton lot. They are so quiet at their ground but were in full voice for the whole of this one.
    Was it just me or did the ref in blue seemed to clash with Burtons kit. Caught me out a couple of times.
    Now let's get the job done and get out of this poxy division!

    Scores the winner and goes up to Leahy, pokes his tongue out and wiggles his hands in his ears.

    Seriously though its quite a creative talent he has, it would never occur to me to think of some of the crazy nonsense he comes on to apparently taunt us with.

    Funny you should say that about the ref, he also ref’d like he was Burton as well 🤔

    Not quite sure about the last bit but would be made up with the winner and the tongue poking

    Great to see so many youngsters involved today - wonder what the average age of the team that finished the game was? Bodes well for the future.
