    Better today.

    Devine was carried but with Cooke or later on, Devitt, replacing him, we look almost there to knowing best team after today.

    Glass half full vs somebody stole my glass.
    We’ve been waiting for a come from behind win for over 2 years. Why not enjoy that moment.
    Then you can happily return to your abject misery?
    Edin really fcked up our fan base. No belief or trust in anyone. We were right to protest and get Rahic out of the club for all the damage he did and were still dealing with the aftermath.
    Bowyer is picking up those broken pieces and may or may not be the answer. Time will tell.
    Is that being a so called thoroughly nice chap? Or just realism. I reckon the latter.

    Of course it doesn’t but the second half showing shows that we are capable of being a decent team at this level

    You’re right - a come from behind win certainly provides us with some encouragement and hope. More so than 24 hours ago on the back of 3 poor results!

    On to next week, where we can hopefully rectify that woeful 0-3 to 3-3 result last season.

    Our victory yesterday was the best come-from-behind performance since Jenna Jameson visited the fire station.

    20 mins of reasonable football?! Now don't get me wrong, we are not exactly setting the world alight but I'm currently looking for evidence of a strong defence, more control and attacking threat from the midfield and a forward line that looks to have goals in them. Based on Saturday's performance we had all of that in the 2nd half and some of it in the first. Further improvement needed - absolutely - but it was certainly a step in the right direct and more than 20 mins of reasonable football. In my opinion at least.

    Yeah but on the contrary, some of us don’t go round slashing our wrists after every match.

    I wish I'd seen this at the time. Anyway, what 'general consensus'? You and a few mates?

    Never understood that unless it's really going pear shaped (i.e. last season) why anyone start worrying about their team until October. Look at where we were in the table, for that month for 1998 and 2015 and the look where we end up in May for each of the following years

    What pleases me is that even from minute one against Cambridge, even though the play was terrible, there was more fight and togetherness in that 90 minutes, than all of last season

    Once you have that, provided you maintain it - the good stuff will follow

    I see you're back with your usual smug, condescending replies.

    You made a statement, I've just asked you to back it up

    Apologies for asking
