| Just back 22:47 - Nov 26 with 3581 views | elnombre | Always wanted to do one of these... Blackburn: not as cold as it can be; Pies (and staff): excellent; can't vouch for the beer as not a drinker, hot choc usual standard; Crowd: excellent (other than some unnecessary Nardi criticism). Hamer injury: hopefully not as bad as it looked when he didn't move at all for about 40 secs. Walked off, looked okay, if a little shaky. Smyth Goal: you know your luck is in when a teeny-tiny-ten scores with a header; MoM: opinions will vary, but Burrell kept running for 90 mins, and boy is that lad quick; Car Parking - 15 quid! My house cost less than that. Shame on you, Blackburn. Safe journey home to everyone. [Post edited 26 Nov 22:47]

| Just back on 07:08 - Nov 27 with 2541 views | thehat | A fantastic 3 points. A completely different game to Saturday and still found a way to win. However Blackburn did have 2 huge chances that they missed so the game could easily have gone the other way. Fantastic save from Nardi as important as our goal. I thought Kolli for Burrell should have been a sub on 70 minutes - Burrell looked tired. Smyth is a little nugget - Very important squad player and needs a new contract. Field - Mr reliable 3 games filling in at left back 3 clean sheets. Cook / Dunne - Won all their headers Chair - I am his biggest critic so if he carries on like this it's a huge slice of humble pie for me Squad - We could change the whole outfield 10 Saturday with decent replacements which shows the huge improvements in quality Fans - Absolute class I salute each and every one of you in that away end last night.

On Smyth's contract, he was offered a new one in the summer, but unless the club hasn't reported it, he didn't sign it. |  | |  |

Probably thinks the new contract is not good enough and he may be right. I guess a bit like Dunne last season we will reach an agreement. The risk Smyth takes though is he is only a bad injury (ACL or similar) away from not having any income after June. |  | |  |

Hadn't eaten since breakfast. Mealtime out the window due to cancelled train. |  |

| Just back on 08:54 - Nov 27 with 1991 views | TheChef | Nardi criticism is odd - I know he's not perfect but without that save, we don't win the game. Never easy coming into a game off the bench as a keeper, so well done him. And the rest of the team. |  |

Too many rough puff roadkill-filled abominations from Dick's Last Resort have rendered you unable to grasp the true majesty of a Clayton Park butter pie...! Clive, to the northern pies appreciation thread, please. |  | |  |
| Just back on 11:12 - Nov 27 with 1373 views | NorrisGreen | Surprisingly mild and dry. I overdid the winter wear and broke out the longjohns too. Still, 3pts and some Betty Swollocks is a good night out I think. |  | |  |

I was fearing the worst when he came on, but he was very good with what he had to do. |  | |  |
