Just got back…..****ing hell that last 3 minutes and the post-match singing made the trip a very good one. Twice in a week is just bizarre. Worried about our injury and suspension pile-up, but for now will sink a cold pint and bask in the warm afterglow of their sad (mostly sad, plus a few angry), Stainy faces trooping down the steps as 2500+ belted out Maupay’s song.
Got in about 45 mins ago. All of that. ^^
Felt genuinely sorry for Potter in a way as the injuries piled up. You cannot change the way you play at short notice, yet playing out using a defence of Veltman, Duffy and Burn is less than optimal - and it'll probably be worse next week. What was I saying about having an adequate to good strength in depth in defence?
And yet,,,,,,
That's probably my favourite goal this season (as I wasn't at Palace or West Ham). The away end went bananas, bloke behind me hit the deck and, as we were in KK, nearly started an enormous game of dominoes, but **** me the NOISE when we scored and afterwards (and walking to the station to be greeted with the trainless void).
A proper away day. Banter, beer, seeing the team sheet and thinking "oh shit", singing and taking it at face value anyway, a bit of silence after they scored, rallying the troops at the start of the second, despair when Tross went down, more despair when Moder hit that shit free kick at the wall. And then...........................................
A good day out enhanced by 10 minutes of football
