    Not the worst of results and essentially nothing to lose in the home game now.

    It's so frustrating that we only seem to switch on when we go behind, we gave up way too much possession to them prior to the goal.

    Everything to play for now

    Absolutely. We are still well in this. Can't wait for Thursday night. It's going to be a great night.

    Well Alexander can’t be pragmatic next Thursday. Whether or not that’s a good thing against those 2 wingers, only time will tell.

    Fair result. Feared a good bumming tonight so 1-0 isn’t end of the world. We can beat them on Thursday if at our best. Press like we did and we can open them up.

    Sarce will be having nightmares tonight that he’s not put us in front but c’est la vie.

    At least there’s a little hope for Thursday night, it would have been an anti climax if we were 4-0 down

    All set up for Thursday night.

    Going to be a very different game then.

    Just hope Tyreik Wright is okay, because he will make a huge difference.

    In Sissoko and Cozier Duberry, they just have that bit more quality. We can't out play them at home, we have to make it a nasty, direct, aggressive game. And kick the sh*t out of them basically.

    To all those Stevenage appeasers

    What a fantastic great game of football
    Witnessed by 20k plus not 6 thousand
    A great team performance by both sides
    Both with attacking intent
    Credit to City and this game is so open
    Wright was brilliant when he came on, in fact I can’t name a weak player

    Officials were weak. McAtee should have walked

    Bring on VP
