    I never felt we would lose that game when we went 1-0 up

    Great mention to job for clapping the fans at the final whistle

    I cannot believe we are within touching distance of the play offs

    Weekend in London coming up in May

    You redsss

    They were shocking, mate.

    Bit like we were (perhaps worse) up to 3 weeks ago.

    They dropped off second half, but first half I thought they had the better chances and looked dangerous on the counter..

    we didnt play well in the first half and they could have easy gone 2-0 up because of stupid defensive mistakes but lucky they couldnt get the ball on target

    ok no more negative :D

    There are quite a few teams all of the same standard in this league - you do not have to be anything other than of an underwhelming standard in order to get a whiff of the playoffs.

    Looking at the league table is more entertaining than watching the football.

    Must not knock a victory though.

    Thought they were the better team first half and could have been a couple of goals up by half time though we improved after the break.

    A pretty poor game played by a couple of average teams. We were solid defensively apart from Davies flaps in the first half but offered little going forward.

    They turned MK over at the weekend.

    And Gillingham smashed Swindon tonight.

    Let's not dumb down our victories.

    With more composure up front Coventry could have been out of sight by half time.

    I can't agree they had a couple of chances but we were by far the better side

    Not knocking the win but as Gordon says steadier finishing would have seen them 2 or 3 nil up by half time we recovered well second half and Waring missed a sitter from a corner just after half time. Reminded me of the 6 other games we have won at home uninspired but efficient.

    I know you weren't knocking it, pal. I just think the final score is all important at this stage of the season, and as we've seen tonight, some clubs are starting to wobble a tad. That PNE equalizer was a timely one.

    I didn't think they were that bad to be honest.

    Similar to us, well organised but lacking in the final third. Conditions probably didn't help.

    They were better than Crewe
