    First time I can remember for a long time us bullying a side. We've really turned the screw this second half.

    Playing a team in top form seems to have suited us. Gillingham have been very open, no surprise for a form team and it's given us a lot of space to play in. Very impressive this.

    To be fair they’ve been very complimentary about us most of the match. I don’t miss many away games so don’t often get to watch iFollow, but when I do the opposition commentary usually talk a load of tosh about us

    I thought we were excellent tonight. Very good result and a very good performance to go with it. There haven't enough performances this season that have passed the 'eye test' as to what promotion quality looks like, but this was one. Defensively resilient, did the ugly stuff well, controlled the game, purposeful possession, urgency and forward running, a consistent goal threat, plenty of shots on goal/target, we attacked from different angles, clean sheet. No one below a 7 tonight and plenty of 8s.

    Costello, I thought had his best game so far. A curious one because his finishing looks erratic and rushed, but some of his all round play looked a cut above League 2. Signs that he and Cook could form a real partnership.

    Really encouraged by what I saw tonight. The key now though is whether we can really kick on and put a run together and really sort our home form. Every time we've put ourselves into real contention, we drop a clanger. That's the challenge now - go and get that home win on Saturday and we could then get on a real roll.

    Yes. Totally agree. Some good observations about how we controlled the game but injected pace and directness when needed. We did very well in the last 20 minutes controlling that game. Brilliant performance.

    That's a very impressive performance and result from a difficult looking fixture.

    Managed the game very well and never in danger of conceding really .

    Sort the home form out and we have a real chance of promotion

    Great performance against a form team that honestly were made to look ordinary. Our interplay at times was excellent.
    Two great goals…well done everyone!

    Monster performance! Harrogate and Barrow helped. Unfortunately Wimbledon let us down. No matter, been a very good night.
