    They're obsessed with Wrexham.

    I was thinking in the second half, we don't lose when we score first, but then, this is Wembley, anything can happen. The positive thought was correct.

    @Dazzler21 spotted you on players marks. Did you have any issues with the ticket in the end, or did they not take a blind bit of notice?

    Wouldn't mind us relieving them of Galbraith next season and playing him in his actual position 10.

    Brilliant result, brilliant team, brilliant manager and effing superb fans. Gonna sink a few Portuguese beers tonight!
    And I lumped on us to get promoted at the start of the season. Happy days.

    I'm exhausted after watching that deserved win. Ridiculous delay for a referee's comms., should have continued to play without them. We're the only team of the three going up that didn't "buy" our promotion. Can't wait to beat Wrexham and Birmingham next season.

    Didn't see this coming in the autumn. Remarkable transformation in the final two thirds of the season. Really pleased for the club, players and supporters after 5 years of League One mediocrity. All credit to Jones and Fleming for building a promotion team with the players they had. 

    We look solid in defence. Mannion reliable in goal. But serious reinforcements will be needed to avoid coming straight back to this lamentable level.

    Having said that, I'd put money on Jones (and Fleming) being able to keep us in the Championship with slender resources.  
    Might be a bit too early to start dissecting the team, but it's the midfield which is our weakest point. And even if we keep Small, we'd need 1-2 wingers, and a new striker.

    I'd happily keep the defence and goalkeeper as is.

    Yeah midfield would be my main concern, fine with Coventry but major doubts about Doc and Berry. Anderson will be an interesting one , would need to tidy up a lot of his game but a strong summer and he could really blossom. An attacking midfielder would be top of my list.
