It takes a few games to adjust to the PL and today I felt we stepped up and showed a great effort all round. There was some real pluses from Reid, Camerasa and massive credit to Ward who was pacy and showed a real threat throughout and got the goal he deserved. I like this lad.
Bobby Reid was a tad unlucky but is showing great promise. Camerasa had a great game and Arter should have scored but once again showed the leadership and energy that others followed. Ralls is already learning from Arter. In the end quality turned us over, but we could've got the draw. I thought we would lose 3-0.
If we can show the spirit that we showed today for the rest of the season then we will have a big chance of staying up. The fans were brilliant today as well.
Well done to everyone!!

Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock says he will encourage attacking football from his side despite his job being "the hardest in the Premier League."
The Bluebirds scored their first goals in the top flight this season in their pulsating 3-2 defeat to Arsenal.
Cardiff played with two strikers and Warnock insists he will continue to be bold and look for victories.
"The Premier League is a different game and you have to move and change accordingly," Warnock explained.
Cardiff had waited 1,597 days since their last Premier League goal, including three frustrating matches this season, before Victor Camarasa and Danny Ward found the net against the Gunners.
Warnock says he will now turn his back on the defensive-style that helped the Bluebirds clinch promotion last term.
"I want us to compete and try and score goals," he said.
"People would have expected to park the bus today, but we missed some great chances.
"I don't think we are good enough to park the bus, we would have lost one, two or 3-0 anyhow, so we decided to have a go.
"It was old fashioned stuff today, we attacked when we could and wanted to give the fans something to cheer about… we have worked on our forward play.
"At my age, I don't want to be parking the bus anymore.
"We've tried in the Championship, to play one upfront and it has worked for us.
"But in the Premier League there are too many good players in defence and we never create anything.
