That should tell Apples all he needs to know about some of our players.

Easy easy easy!

Well we are a one half team…this game it happens to be the 1st half…

Well that was quite good for 2/3rds of the match, then they lost their heads for a bit, but overall a really good result.

Well I think those last 15 minutes show the value of the players who were subbed in the 80th minute.

and some wanted Dobbo & May to be subbed at HT.

Made it hard for ourselves but least we got the job done

Dobson muttering to himself at the final whistle, he don't look happy.


Honestly, having the fright like that (but still getting the points) might do us good in the long run. Win comfortably and we might've started smelling our own farts after what was frankly a poor first half from the home team.

After the subs a bit of a horror show. Good away win though

Lincsaddick

good work out, 3 vital points and back to winning ways

Lesson number 1, don’t switch off when you’re 3-0 up

Such a disappointing second half

We were fine until the final subs

I still think Dobbo looks shagged and had a 'poor' game by his standards. Would love to see him get a break on Sunday

Win is a win. If we'd been 2-0 down and came back 2-3 we'd all be buzzing.

But we werent. We were 3-0 up.

Derby didn't take their foot off the gas - they won 4-0.

I understand that people will remember the last 10 more than the first 82, but we were so, so good for those first 80 minutes. We played around and through them, and they played in front of us. Hopefully the last 10 was a matter of bringing subs on for garbage time and us looking a little tired. But it's a great three points away to Wigan.

Kirk is Nicking and living soon as he comes on. We are shit

Jammy, useless ********s.

Pathetic last 20 minutes.

You know that we not only won away against a team that has a significantly better performance than us but that we were comfortably, overwhelmingly on top for most of the game?  3 points when most of us were expecting a defeat?

We all know Kirk is pretty useless but fuck me Fraser since coming back from injury has looked like his incompetent Scottish cousin. 

Hope he bucks his ideas up sharpish

O-Randy-Hunt

I wonder if supporters of other clubs feel as uncomfortable as us when they are 3-0 up with 10 minutes left 🤣

Rothko

It’s Hallowe'en, of course they’ll be a fright 

cafc_harry

Fraser shouldn’t see the pitch again. What’s the use of a midfielder who never breaks a jog, awful player.

yes that's because Derby are better than us and we're reasonably shite

First away league win of the season.

I don't agree.  We were on top for 80 minutes.

I think he's still coming back to fitness quite clearly, would like to see him start against Cray Wanderers

If there's one thing you can rely on.... Charlton ain't it.

Fuck knows what team will show up... or for how long.

Oh boy, do I hate being right all the time.

When you want to sack someone you give them one more opportunity.

im actually glad that happened in a way -we didn't exactly set the world alight after our last big win did we - shows there can be no papering over the cracks
