A good win in the end, but lucky in lots of ways. Missed Coventry penalty. Usual 2nd half let-down. Almost everyone played well enough, except Brooks was off-pace all game. And there isn't a universe where Stephens should be playing before Bednarek. substitutions were ok for a change, even though Mara was somewhat ineffective. Fraser really is a joy to watch!

An important win against a good side. Good first half but struggled more in the second. Rode our luck a bit but deserved to win.

This was a side in form. We rode our luck at times but in the balance of play I thought we deserved the win.

While I share a lot of people's concerns regarding Jack Stephens, this was a game that he actually should have played in - covering for Jan B at CB. To give him his due I thought he played well.

Bree and KWP should definitely start as Full backs. Aribo, Downes, Smallbone, Adams and Armstrong also need to be on the teamsheet.

This was pretty much our strongest line up last night and they played well together.

I can't see us making the automatics now so we just need to stay in good form so that we hit the playoffs in the strongest position that we can. Got some tough matches right up until the end of the season. If we play like we did last night we have an excellent chance of winning promotion.

As I understand it Jan B had a knock and so wasn't risked. When available, on current form, he should always start in front of Stephens.

At the risk of teaching my granny to suck eggs our defence between now and the end of the season should be Bazunu, KWP, Bree, THB and JB, with Downes in front.

Never a pen

Should have won more convincingly

Again we don't kill a game off, gift the opposition a goal and panic.

Most played quite well, but Brooks was too casual and off the pace.

The subs all did well and helped see the game out, apart from Mara. He was lazy, ineffectual, gave it away too much, failed to give Bree options down the right, drifted across the pitch and didn't put any effort in. It was like playing with 10 men. When he first got the ball, he should have used his fresh legs and accelerated into the Cov half, so that we could clear our lines. Instead he walked with the ball, got tackled and put us back under the kosh. Even the ineffective Sulemana would have done better. With his pace, at least it would have drawn two Cov players away from their attacks.
