    I’d like those who are complaining about FCDs distribution to watch the highlights, watch his 45 yard pass which is absolutely on the money for Cooks 3rd goal and maybe cut him some slack?
    After watching that again, Adam’s will be hoping FCDs distribution stays that bad for the rest of the season!!

    Great win considering we don't have anyone who gets dominated by centre halves.

    Especially that 3rd goal.

    If only he didn't let them bully him.

    Gilliead had a good game on Saturday, the work he did goes unnoticed by many.

    That performance was born out of a team that had taken pre season with a massive level of imprortance and fully understood exactly what the manager wants them to do because pre season meant something to him other than fitness.

    It's not very often I'd recommend watching the full recording of a City match, but last night's is definitely worth it.

    Absolutely agree. Loving the new interpretations by referees since the Euros. Long may it continue.

    At the risk of being controversial I actually thought FCD got stronger as the game went on.

    Steady on! It was Fleetwood. Then Accrington. Then Morecambe. The times they a-change, and the clubs we used to imperiously dismiss as little minnows like these have got their shit together far better than we have over the last few years.

    That's the best I've seen City play in years. The 1st half was stunning, with one wee blip.

    Reminiscent of the old City we all fell in love with. Tonight, I saw certain attributes from City players that I haven’t seen for many-a-year.

    I thought Vernam was fantastic. His attacking play is something I haven’t seen since Marshall. What can I say about Cook that hasn’t already been said? It’s amazing just how mobile he is for a big lad - we’re very lucky to have him at this level.

    See you ‘all’ at Mansfield.

    Way past your bedtime.

    Don't forget to have a wee before you go to sleep.

    And all this without our first choice right back and key centre midfielder.

    That said, I think FCD has shown enough so far as a deputy right back we can call upon. Pleased for him.

    The radio didn’t mention anything about Crankshaws assist. They were too busy banging on about Canavan being a ball boy here (Andy Kiwomya was too busy singing and making random R2D2 noises). I thought it was excellent play by him, turning the defender, cutting along the byline and delivering the perfect cross. Well done.
