    What a wonderful afternoon. Great performance, great three points. Happy days.

    When you could name a handful of players as MOTM then you know it's been a good un.

    Apologies on behalf of the club for the scoreboard and any other issues raised.

    Enjoy your bank holiday.

    McGregor time.... #YouReds

    Thought the whole day was good today. Good atmosphere in the ground and a great performance after we settled down after the first 20 minutes.

    Can you feed back to the club and tell them it's not on that I lost my voice? It was there when I got into the Ponty End, but it disappeared when I saw Ugbo and Hammill pressing the **** out of Sunderland's defenders.

    Hours later, it still hasn't come back.

    I'm holding Patrick Cryne, the coaching staff and the players responsible.

    I felt proud of the fans today. What a superb atmosphere.

    Well out of your jurisdiction Whitey but could you pass a message on to whoever is in charge of the lads at the bottom of the car park going out onto ponty rd after the match? Or let me know who to ask?

    I know it bottlenecks and it is difficult - but they have no apparent method whatsoever. Today they were letting six to seven cars out from each line as they reached the bottom, apart from the one I was in which had only two each time.

    The result being many cars way behind us passing either side and getting out - but it bottlenecking in front of us and nobody moving at all for a good while.

    It was a massively frustrating end to a wonderful experience but had we not won I think tempers would have boiled over. I was parked at the front of a row near the middle gates, got back quite swiftly and got into a queue to turn left, but only got onto ponty Rd well after 5:30pm, it took around 40 minutes.

    The guy driving the minicab in front of me looked like he had a blood vessel about to pop.

    I don't really blame the lads, they look young but they walk around disinterested and at snails pace and look to have had little or no training or idea what they are doing.

    And the methods adopted clearly don't work as I remember the car park clearing quicker when it was a free for all with all exits open.

    I was charged £5 for the privilege of that utter chaos too. I don't like using the riding school with my lad as I'm not confident in getting him over the road after the matches but it looks like I'll have no other option, I can't consider using the South stand car park again whilst it remains that bad.

    Completely beyond me that, mate. But I'll pass it on.

    Cheer yourself up knowing we won and are above Wednesday.

    It worked much better when the plod were controlling traffic at the Grove Street/Pontefract Road junction. I wonder why that stopped.

    Wouldn't expect you to do any more than pass it on mate, thanks a lot.

    It having been such a good win it barely took the shine off - don't worry!

    It was our first game today having just taken up st, first for the lad, I had them a few years back before work got in the way. We missed the first two as we were on holiday. Nice way to start.
