    Thought Mitchell has had a good game aside from the huge cock up, gutted for him 
    His role in the equaliser sorted of made up for it. The other players were quick to congratulate him, which was good to see.

    Exactly, you make a mistake, and it is how you respond for the team.

    Gilbert is a nice player to watch. Has some nice touches and keeps it simple.
    He should start. Find a way Jones.

    He had a couple of other really nervy moments

    Glad he had an involvement in the goal. We still may need him this season.

    Should certainly not be kept out of the team behind Anderson

    Baffled why Gilbert hasn't played more. Playing Anderson there makes us so defensive in midfield.

    Absolute pandemonium going on behind the AC stand, supposed to be selling refreshments, what a joke, unless you leave 15 mins before half time,total waste of time.
    The club needs to sort this out, staff don’t know what they’re doing it seems 🤷‍♂️

    Been very impressed with Gilbert, if Berry doesn't play then he's the obvious replacement.

    Thats exactly why I think; Jones always sets out to make us tough to beat first and foremost.

    We're not a team that usually struggles to find a goal either

    Well that turned out better than it looked after 15 minutes.

    As usual with a big, expectant crowd on a special occasion Charlton provided one of those f*** up moments that only Charlton can provide with Mitchell contributing to the penalty that AMB had to concede.

    That threatened to suck the jam out of our doughnut but since then Burton have done very little and Matty Goddrn is King of The Valley with his brace. Mitchell managed to raise his player rating off the floor with a good bit of skill in the build-up to the Sniper's equaliser.

    Since we got back level we've been in charge so as long as Mitchell doesn't stuff up again (or anyone else take his place on the naughty step) we should be able to see this one through without any dramas.

    I'd give Godden 15 minutes to get his hat-trick and then I'd start taking the big names off and give the supporting cast some time in the limelight in preparation for the next two weeks.

    Gilbert seems more like a no 10 than Berry in terms of his link play and controlling the pace of the game. Berry is more of a goal threat but good to see Gilbert impressing today.

    Need a third goal before we start subbing players

    Wouldn’t mind seeing Anderson come on in a defensive role 2nd half

    Lovely sunny day. Nice passing and movement from us. Godden on fire. Think the replacements have been OK. Gilbert has played some great attacking balls an Mitchell has grown into the game after a prolonged absence. Happy with that.

    Steve Brown said similar - Gilbert has the vision to pick a pass, Berry’s intelligent with his movement and can grab a goal.

    Same last game.  Nuevo fans is good, but prepped staff needed.

    Usually though he plays Berry there, who isn't a workhorse. 2 engine room players is enough.

    Is the last league hatrick still Ricky Holmes? 

    Or am I forgetting someone 
    Fosu against Fleetwood later on that same season
    Fair enough, so not including Stevensons goals in the pizza, Godden has a chance to break a fairly long standing record. 

    Be made up for him if he can, very likeable bloke and a role model footballer.
