    I don't doubt but his contribution as captain was outstanding. Leadership true qualities.

    Brilliant performance that, they're often considered the best in this league and we made them look more than ordinary. Taken 4 points off the top of the league since these took over, within 6 of Exeter now and a long way to go in the season. Very happy Bantam right now

    To be honest they were all outstanding and that includes the management team. We have brought quality players in but also got the players already at the club to show their quality too.
    Danny Rose was only on the field twenty mins but I love his arrogance, good first touch but it's almost like it's too easy for him.

    This was always going to be the toughest challenge for T&S in their stewardship thus far - and we won! Gotta say the way they organized tactics for this game were spot on. They 'see things' and tweak constantly. Great win away at a side whose expectation is for the automatics. Well done, lads.
    This was a really big away win against a side whose expectations are the automatic positions. Again, T&S got the tactical battle spot on. It's extraordinary how their attention to detail is being taken so much on board by the players - for me, that says they really trust and buy into what Trueman and Sellars are asking them to do. Let's not in any way diminish this win. There aren't in truth many good sides in this godawful League Two, but Cheltenham are definitely one of them. We took three points from them on their home patch. Onwards. Upwards!

    I thought some of the praise for the commentators from our fans was toe curling. I notice some of their fans weren’t as impressed

    Cooke obviously man of the match, but very closely followed by AOC (or am I not allowed to praise him on here).

    Defensively superb, composed on the ball and with players of genuine quality where it matters- the perfect ingredients for a league two team!-

    Terrific performance against a good side and we made them look distinctly average.

    Cooke the best player on the pitch again with two more assists.

    And how nice is it to have two good strikers in the squad for once?

    AOC certainly doesn't look like a fish out of water at right back, very steady performance.

    Either I missed his signing or you have fat fingers.

    Without doubt. How many times did he win the ball. Clear the ball. Bring the ball out.

    Fantastic result best of the season, well done to the whole team but especially both the Cook(e)’s.

    Two commentary teams on the trot have called him out and insinuating he’s one of the best players in the league. He got some criticism off some fans playing out of position early in the season, now we’re seeing what he’s capable of and what a ball for both goals.

    Great defensive display as well, far closer to the playoffs than relegation, never in doubt ;)

    Watt needs to be careful. He’s racking up the yellow cards and might find he struggles to get back in.

    Really is the sign of a team when it's difficult to pick mom for the right reasons.
