Great to be involved in this, it's been a while since we've been anywhere near the top of League One.
Also, Burton picking up 99 points in the calendar year is unbelievable!
I absolutely wouldn't drop Ehmer, he's come into the team after a long while out and played well... Dropping him after such a solid performance would really send out all the wrong signals in my opinion. I think we'll see a few changes as JED's said he could see some players were very tired in...
No cash turnstiles for the home end so you will indeed have to go to the ticket office. Sometimes they move the away fans into the Gordon Road Stand if it's raining but I'm not sure they'll be able to do that if you're bringing around 300. That'd be the best stand to sit in if you want to go in...

Match highlights. Note the unbelievable Egan strike and Nelson's wonder-save late on.
Quite impressed with Col U, too, but what a pair of centre backs... Elokobi made some ridiculous decisions and the guy next to him looked like he'd eaten the whole Christmas turkey over the festive period, and probably his gran too... How is he a pro-footballer?
Quite a close game I thought with both teams having a fair few chances. Delighted with the win, obviously, but what about that strike from John Egan?! Must have been 40 yaess out, if that'd gone in it would have been the best goal I'd seen live without a doubt.
Well fuck me, I didn't expect that. Missed a pen and all. 7 points between us and 7th isn't too shabby at all, 3rd at the halfway point of the season, unbelievable.
Cheers Agombar, best of luck for the rest of the season.
Should be a good test for us with you guys in pretty decent form. We've been a bit hit and miss on the road so a draw would be a decent result, a win after Saturday's mauling of Millwall would be fantastic though. Only change will probably be McDonald out as he's now out until near the end of...
Evening all. I've spent a little while Googling how the money from TV rights is distributed between the Championship, League One and League Two but I've not been having much luck. Would anyone on here happen to know how much a team in each of the 3 leagues gets? Cheers.
He was 2nd favourite for the vacant Villa job for a little while so I'd expect some interest in him the next time a Championship side sacks their manager. I'd like to think he'd stay if someone did come in for him, but I'm not sure if that's just blind optimism... he left Newport pretty quickly...
That's 2 goals in 3 games Oshilaja has cost us, although he also scored on Tuesday night so I guess I'll let him off. Sounds like we responded well to going behind although we need another with Coventry, Burton and Walsall all winning as things stand.
