Yeah that was class, you cant deny how much team spirit Warne has built, all the lads look like they're full of passion for us.
Wildsmith just needs a bit of work on his distribution. He was solid from balls in the box today too got on the end of a few.

Well done to players, management and fans. Stood up and were counted on the biggest day of the season so far. Seven games to go, but there is clear blue water now.

Getting closer…

I know Tommo has his limitations, but his willingness to be there when a pass needs to be made is top class. Always, always shows for the ball. Never goes missing. Absolute polar opposite to Hourihane in that respect.

Wilson with a header

KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
 

This sub says it all. He’s playing for a draw.
Edit after the goal: I meant he’s playing for a win 
Thanks @oodledoodle 😉

Get in!!!!! 1-0 Kane Wilson from an Elder corner….
Said he’d have an impact 😉 

NO IT BLOODY ISN'T

Feeling there’s going to be a last minute winner in this 

Yep , there’s a reason avocados are cheap , they taste like shxt , bacon for the posh 😂

Diddums.

With no disrespect to the team or fans - f*** Bolton. f*** the idea that we should be worrying so much about this match. Over 38 games they’ve not been as good as us. We have finally stumbled onto a system that is producing decent performances, Why should we change how we’ve taken to the last 3 matches? 
 
Go out and show them why we’ve got the best goal difference in the division. Go and attack them from the off. My heart not take watching us trying to soak up 90 minutes of pressure for Wildsmith to sprint out and foul their striker in the 86th minute for a pen. 

Wouldn't be surprised to come on here and find out that some posters are petitioning the efl to get the game replayed or setting up a collection for the reading fans it's like some don't want us to do well 

Imagine a 442 with Martin and Gayle, during the Cocu era.
Sorry. Not sure what happened there…

I'll post the match thread for Bolton late tonight. 
Eight to go then. It surely won't pan out like this but IF we can win the 'easier' looking games (Blackpool, Orient, Carlisle at home, Northampton, Wycombe, Cambridge away) then draws in the Bolron and Portsmouth games would almost certainly see us finish at least second. 

This feigning injuries by goal keepers is getting beyond a joke, and annoyingly, I have to agree with this, but they can stop them having a mass team meeting with the coaching staff, maybe allow no more than 2 players to go over for a quick word.

Another good performance.  Similar to Saturday, we did everything but score in the 1st half.  Their keeper played well and Cashin was unlucky to hit the woodwork.  Gayle’s first touch for his goal was superb and it took some nerve from Hourihane for the penalty, I hate it when there’s a long delay between the award and taking as I think it gives the advantage to the keeper.  I was surprised at 4 subs just after the penalty but I think Saturday was in PW’s mind with all the changes.
Barkhuizen was my MoM.  He looks rejuvenated and is unlucky not to have scored in the last 2 games.  One of the best bits for was seeing Hourihane on the bench after going off. He was up and down and encouraging the team.  That’s great to see and testament to the team spirit PW and his staff have built.
Game 3 of an important month out of the way.

The past two games have been a joy to watch. We didn’t play as well second half as we did in the first but that first half, the movement, the passing, the desire to win the second ball was excellent.
Adams was brilliant again, at first I thought he was just a midfield battler but his range of passing in the past few games has been superb. I really hope we can tempt him to stay, he compliments our midfield perfectly. 

The front three of Barks, NML and Dwight were brilliant. Dwight really is a level above.
Cash as ever played at a level way above his years.
There was some very good individual performances yesterday but the energy and commitment as a team was fantastic and a pleasure to see.
Well done Derby

Oh so important to have won again. Surprised people are talking so much about the decisions. They all seem justifiable. 
But the point there is that in what looks like a vital early season game vs Bolton, this same ref was so appalling that Derby released the Assessor's report. Which showed the ref effectively gave a 4 goal swing against us in favour of Bolton. That's extraordinary and it meant the same ref couldn't go against us tonight or serious questions would have been asked about him. 
I certainly don't want this ref every week, but maybe he's got it out of his system? Regardless, it sounds a well-deserved win. 
For context with the goal conceded, in the post-match Warne said Bradley had felt ill before the game and was sick afterwards. Our game management does seem a weakness in terms of seeing games out. Hopefully we can improve that quickly. 

Worth another look I reckon 

We’re like a different team… rather we play like a team!
ward is like a new signing .. so to is Barks to an extent
well done PW for making lots of changes at the right time - the guys on the bench need minutes and the guys on the pitch need resting
Everyone played well again
some of the football was really good 
Shame we didn’t get that third to boost them but so glad we got the win against our bogey team (who were very dirty) 
hope everyone can rest and recover for Saturday (and the players 😂)
thought CBT did ok again. When he gets a goal he’ll fly
ebou adams .. I hope Cardiff don’t want him next year 
Can’t not mention Gayle - a good footballer and looks to be exactly what we needed
if you had said a few weeks ago that we’d be without JC/ Max Bird/Nyambe and play that well I wouldn’t have dared to believe you  
Our fans are awesome 
I actually thought at times we looked like a top team .. enjoyed that feeling but still very nervous those last 10 mins or so
