We did it! We finally did it!

Our first clean sheet of the season and we deserved it!

Birmingham would have gone second if they beat us today. This is a brilliant win!

I thought Middlesbrough away was a big step forwards and I'm delighted we managed to hold onto the lead today.

Great save by Trott at the end, but we controlled the game with some great football in appalling conditions.

Very happy Salech scored after the previous stick he's had and his penalty miss - that shows his excellent character.

We're still undefeated at home and it looks like we're in an excellent place. Hopefully we can keep up the momentum and continue building.

I'm just so happy we have finally kept a clean sheet to get the win we deserve. I think people feel I'm negative when I complain about us not keeping a clean sheet to hold onto a win, but that's only because I care. We all know we should be higher up the table with our performances so far.

Hopefully, many more clean sheets will follow so we get the wins we deserve.

Well said.

I said to someone at half time that I thought we needed a second "because we never keep clean sheets" so delighted to be wrong about that.

Bagan has really impressed me. We look much better with Fish as Osho just seems to have a mistake in him

Fish and bielik our centre half pairing for many years hopefully, I dont know why fish hasn't nailed down a central defenders spot

Very pleased we kept the clean sheet and in fairness we looked far less ropey than normal, in my view mostly because Fish looked rock solid but Trott bailed us out massively at the end

On the expectation that we won’t be keeping Lawlor?

Fish and Lawlor have always been our best two combination but could never understand why Fish always ended up being dropped

Agreed, Fish and Lawlor are the best pairing but we need Lawlor to have an injury free run.

Great win, 100% deserved that. Let’s get to mid table ASAP. Good to see the Jacks getting battered as well.

Perfect weekend :)
