Blackman keeping us in this massively

Can here Ricky and his mates (I'm guessing it's them) trying to get it going but United are a shadow of what they have been way too much hoying the ball anywhere but at least Stearman was looking for a pass just before the whistle went

Bit of an exaggeration. They’ve had one good chance which was very well saved.

Like a friggin morgue..jesus when i remember what it was like when kop was standing around the deane agana era

Really is horrendous. Makes me glad I can't go tonight.

Brooks should be on this pitch. Wilson is not good enough.

It looks like 2 lower league teams at the mo - these are surely going down and we need to put at least 3 past them. Strikers not really in it, but final balls / passing poor.

Attendance nearly 25k - doesn't feel like it. Atmosphere not great.

Not a bad start for my namesake, get in young man.

Got to give credit to Burton.
They reminded me of a very good league 1 side.
Lots of effort, lots of crosses and attacks, but poor final ball and really lacking quality when it mattered.

Strange game from us, we were slightly under par and tended to play more long ball.
The players didn’t seem as up for it and Burton were out battling us.

Then on comes Brooks and the game changes. He was full of running, eager to impress
And had that touch of quality that seemed to make Burton nervous and gave us a confidence boost.
We started looking much the better side and it ended up a comfortable win.

 

[KoppedOff]

Mathematically safe from relegation with that win- with a full 9 games to go.

Stick that up your Doyen-d.
