Well it took us a bloody long time to take that game by the scruff of the neck, and I have to say at 70 mins I didn't think we were going to.

Obviously McGlincheys miss in the first half was crucial, but we finally started to dominate when we realised we didn't have to have 45 passes before shooting at goal. 4 passes can be quite enough.

I thought Rodriguez was one of our better players tonight, but the interesting thing was that when he came off, suddenly Roly joined in the game and what a difference it made.

And for a team that supposedly likes keeping possession, why did we insist on having Moss (in particular) lumping kicks forward so that that huge guy could practice his heading?

At the end of the day Im pleased for Burns, who didn't have his best day until he scored, pleased for Krishna again, pleased for McGlinchey so that his miss didn't cost us, and pleased for Ernie because as frustrating as we can be too watch for the most part, he definitely has ideas that are coming to fruition. Durante had a great game , as did Moss.
