    Not liking this tactic of not touching the ball for the first ten minutes.


    Of each half.

    So long as we keep picking up points and get into the top 6 (hopefully top 2) after 46 games, well that's all I'm bothered about. If we don't make the top 6 then a discussion should be had about Collins future.
    This isn't a good division and the play offs should be a minimum requirement.

    Like I said I'm not having a go as such and Jordon is a very important member of the team/squad.I just feel his form as dipped recently and when some fans start to boo it could be a good time to take a backseat and take stock of things.
    I too would play him back at right back where he never lets us down.

    Yeah it's good to see some fans still have ambition and haven't had it completely drained from them by a lack of ambition from the board.

    Today was poor. We were poor and again boring to watch. No idea how Stevenage are so high. Goes to show the poor standard of this league.

    3 points is great but for the entertainment business it isn't entertaining.

    I think once Lopata comes back fully fit. William's will revert back to right wing back.
    Imo. Him and O'Keefe can't get it together. Both following the ball not the man. Awful tactical awareness from both at the mo. We have got away with it the last 2 games. But it's there to be exploited.

    We’ve gone from ‘We’ve never beaten anyone from the top six’ to ‘we’ve beaten a top six side but we were crap’.

    Maybe we could give todays opposition a bit of credit? They are currently top six after all.

    I’m just liking the fact that we’ve broken that duck, have games in hand on some of those above us, have come from behind to win again, and all this whilst we’re not really playing well.

    I would like to see Cosgrove starting games instead of Cole though.

    Aye ,every time we win it’s the other team that’s had an off day. 10 points from last 12 lest we forget.

    Some of the comments on here are ridiculous.

    How anyone can slate the manager tonight is beyond me. He got his tactics absolutely spot on today. Time & time again we got in behind their defenders. If our midfielders & forwards had shown more composure we would’ve put them to bed before half time. McAtee’s even come out & said they’d worked on the exact run he made for the goal in training.

    Why are some fans still calling for us to press when you’ve watched our centre backs for months?

    The only ‘centre back’ we’ve got who can run fast is Williams. None of the others can sprint. It would be suicide to have De Gevigney, McCart or any of the CB’s who aren’t starting playing a high line.

    You have to be a spoof. We've just won a key fixture against a promotion rival and you're still whinging. I know that the football isn't the most thrilling at the minute, but the results are generally pretty hard to argue with.

    In football, the result is an impostor. You can do things really, really well but not win. There's something greater than the result, more lasting - a legacy.

    It was the the worst win of the season for me but ultimately a win , Stevanage reminded me of us under Big Val

    It's simple really....we aren't great, neither are the vast majority of teams in this dog **** league.
    A couple of decent signings in January and who knows where we might finish....it's the nature of the league, enjoy the ride!

    Was a well deserved win. Ref was bizarre & we started very badly. We over elaborated in the first half when we got chances. There were some very good performances today & a few that looked lost. Was a game we could have lost, but a vital 3 points.

    Had a great time hanging out with my nephew & my regular footie mates.

    A good day & a win. No bairning from me.

    I was there, I have two eyes and watched my team put in a battling performance to come from behind to beat an in form promotion rival.
