Some people getting very carried away about winning today

A win is a win so not to be sniffed at especially with our injuries but people need to learn the lesson assuming games in hand are just points in the bag. How many good performances in the league has there been the last 8 games or so? Lets not forget the aim is top 2 which means winning most weeks. I’ve never seen such excitement cos we have beaten a team 15th in the league. There is some terrible teams in this league so we will win games but do you think we would beat rotherham, would we go to Ipswich and win etc?? We have lost 5 games in 18 and now have a stack of injuries so let’s not get carried away and don’t just think 3 home games in a row equals 9 points. It won’t with this team and manager.

So we can't celebrate a win now? This place is nuts. Some are only happy if they're in a state of negativity it seems.

I'm happier with today's win than last Saturday.
The first half was high tempo high press that we did so successfully the first 8 games or so this season.
The 2nd half was a really good defensive display, after being bullied a bit in recent games, to deal with abour 75 corners pumped into the box and dealt with well by defence and keeper has also encouraged me.
I'm not saying we've turned the corner, but I feel more optimistic

You spout all that but we have 35 points from 18 games which is averaging 2 points a game just about. 2 points a game over the season gets you promoted

No matter how much you dislike the manager he's actually doing a decent job so far despite a very unfortunate injury list at the minute.

I'm not sure many of the top clubs in this division would cope well with every available full back out for a few months and a few more injuries

7/9 points after a really dismal few games, while i doubt anyone is getting carried away it was a much better performance all round today..first half we used the wind and got the goals we needed, second half by all accounts conditions got even worse and they were always going to be using the wind just as we did, so a nice attacking half followed by a pretty decent defensive half.

it was not pretty but it needed the right performance and we got that today, i'm happy atm.
 
Just as some get carried away screaming for the managers head after some poor results. Seven points from the last three with a laundry list of injuries.
