An excellent - most unexpected - win. Also very timely looking at the table.

Well done Mariner the ref, just got praised by Garth for not bottling it on the big decisions, and VAR, in the old days our off side goal would always have been flagged up, but theres wouldn"t, VAR at its best today.

Fabulous match. I didn't expect a win today, but did think we'd give them a hard time. And, boy, we were good. Not a dud player on the pitch. Every one of them gave their all today. There'll be some tired legs tonight. Good to see Pep whinging about us wasting time too. They are so arrogant- expect to win everything. Excellent game plan and tactics deployed by PV. He got it so right and substitutions too. All round a terrific afternoon.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

At 86 mins, after our last few games, I thought, I would still be alright with a draw. So happy that we finished it off. Can't wait to see Pep on MOTD. COYP....

A huge improvement with our movement out of trouble when we pass from the back but we still tend to lose the ball too easily especially so as the first half wore on, but we defended and covered each other absolutely well only allowing them one good opportunity in that first half and moan.c just showed how spoilt they've become as a club. I was totally convinced they'd come back even after we scored our second so I'm still in a state of shock.

They've put themselves in that position and all it causes is panic when faced with players who get in their faces and have some ability on the ball, their fans are worse.

We are emerging as a very useful outfit. That 2nd goal was so well worked. Olise is going to be very good.
