Great 3 points that sees us in second place for now - although we did have some iffy periods second half. Some observations:
Lowe isn't fit; he was blowing out of his arse with over 20 minutes to go. And I know I'm biased but Cullen would have gobbled up the couple of chances he had. It's what he does.
Great from Kasey Palmer on two counts. First, his bravery in getting his goal and, equal first, the way he clattered that spunkbag Maclean, a player I really, really don't like. He loves to dish it out but bitches and whines when someone fouls him. I'll never forget the way he did Joe Allen, a club team mate, when Wales played Ireland - put Joe out for a while. It's a pity that Ducks, or someone like him, wasn't playing because Maclean would have been stretchered off after that tackle on Connor. Still, Kasey did just fine and he must start against Blackburn, as must Fulton who had a great game.
Finally, has Grimes become colour blind or what? The last few games he's almost passed as much to the opposition as his own players. Maybe it's time Cooper gave him a rest. Anyway, enjoyed the game for the most part, particularly the first half when we looked different class. If we can replicate that sort of form for 90 minutes, we can be a real force this season.
