Never thought id ever mention Kandols name in a 1st team squad,but @ moment we,re desperate,and he as been banging them in for reserves and 1st team v Darlo in JPT....

Would agree with the team - think Kandol's up for it and on form at the moment. Would deffo pick him. Hope the break has shaken the staleness from our play.

Leaving work in an hour, having some sleep and then going to the game tonight, can't wait, seems like an age since we last played!
A bit of a side bet, who's going to pull the most viewers tonight?
Sky - Leeds v Norwich
ESPN - Fulham v Hull

Big win thought beckford was never gonna score,at last we have the winger we've been crying out for albeit on loan Gradel looks a real handful for this division and turned the game when he came on...

It's games like this that make me think we have what it takes to do it this season. We were under the kosh for the better part of the second half but weathered it and managed to grab a winner. Under other managers I know we would have collapsed.

Talk about heart attacks!!!! I didnt get to see the match. attempted to watch it online but gave up after an hour of fighting with my internet connection.
By all accounts not the best performance but as I have said before It doesnt have to be pretty, just a win!!!
We won the match against the run of play, but I'll take 3 points.
And I cant wait to see this Gradle fella.

Sure you all watched it, so won't go into too much detail.
I thought Norwich were by far the best team we've faced this season, they controlled the midfield well, without really creating a lot.
We started well in the first half, but faded once we took the lead. Second half was much more evenly matched.
The referee and his liner were the worst I've ever seen and that's saying something, how there number 20 stayed on the pitch is beyond me. Had two players in the book after three minutes, so that sort of set the tone for the rest of the game.
Was gutted when Becks missed that sitter at the back post and thought that was that, until the keeper kicked it straight back to him to have another go!
The celebration was fantastic, all that pent up frustration - caused by the ref and everyone went mental! Great scenes as I climbed on top of two chairs to celebrate.
Tresor and Max changed the game for me and gave us the edge we were looking for - Vokes looked unfit and it seems Higgs was risked too soon, so is likely to be missing for another few weeks.
All in all, not the best, but STILL unbeaten and top of the league, can't grumble too much. I can't wait until we start playing well!

Good post....
As you said Kandol and Gradel,gave us the boost,Vokes in time once played a few games,will be a handy signing imo,he needs games and im sure he,l get them here with us...
By sounds and what i seen Norwich were best side we have faced this season,Charlton were decent,but Norwich looked better and more of a threat,lucky really they had a poor start and we have a nice points cushion over them,but plenty of games to go yet,so wouldnt rule them out yet of getting a top 2 spot,but @ worse definite Playoff side for this season..
Great scenes @ end in kop when goal went in ,way 2nd half were goin were happy tbh getting a point,but when you hang in there like we do,and Quality we have in side,we,re always likely to snatch something.....
As you said top of league,unbeaten and not playing great,Display,s kinda remind me of 07/08 season when many times we kept it tight @ back,didnt play great,but had enough about us to win games....
