A complete sidestep from the thread, but how mad is it that he's playing in the National League North now? He's managed to get so lost that he's ended up in the depths of non league at what should be his prime.

A few musings now I've had chance to reflect; TJJ has got a bit of a swagger about him, and I feel like we're desperate for some of that borderline-arrogant confidence. At the same time, he seemed quite humbled by the fan reaction to the goal. After his little dance and celebration, you could see him mouth "thank you" to the crowd. Or it could have been "f*** you" and I suck at lip reading, so make of that what you will. Port Vale aren't a bad team, despite not creating much they looked more than capable of doing so. Plus their kit is gorgeous. I actually think we look better as a back 3, as long as Foz isn't on the right because you could see him panic every time the ball came to him. Nelson and Cashin have been sensational recently. Nyambe had one of his poorest games for us and didn't look comfortable going forwards at all. I think a back three of Nyambe, Nelson and Cashin could be sensational with fit wingbacks though. Wilson is a joy. It a shame he isn't left footed so we can't get him and Ward in the same side. He's not a winger, though. The away support was sensational and incredibly loud on the Rams TV coverage! Well done all, hope the hangover on a school night isn't too painful. Anyway, back in my box.

Professional performance. It's not pretty, but we're climbing the table and we're one of the form teams going in to the crunch. No poor performances tonight, either.

What's the ref playing at?! Gives them a free kick for a clash of heads then only TJJ has to leave the pitch?!

*intense Mart Poom flashbacks*

How about we don't let them have any more corners? Not sure my blood pressure can handle much more of that.

NML goes up top and magic happens again. What a touch and pass!

He's one of our very few match winners, and he seems like a genuinely nice lad too. He (and the rest of the team) looked much better when we switched to a back three, and better still when Sibs was moved into the middle. The extra movement in the final third really helps him exploit tired defences. Yes, this is also a very rare admission that Warne made a good tactical decision. I'm shooketh.

I was genuinely too sad to post anything up until now, and I never even met him. His positivity was infectious an his posts always made me smile (and occasionally facepalm). I remember seeing his posts all the way back in the early 2000s on the old DET forums, forever trying to work out if his name was supposed to mean something. If I remember rightly, it used to be longer too. We'll know if he's had a word in the ear of the big man upstairs if pink kits quietly disappear from existence next season! Thank you, Daniel. Love to his family, friends and Rams everywhere. Let's chase down Pompey in his name. #bemoreB4

You can tell January is approaching when we're having our name added to every form player with an agent eyeing a payday. The chance of us splashing a million on a single player is basically 0.

Fapetu and Weston will get most of the plaudits (and they deserve them!) but Robinson was really impressive too. Calm on the ball, crunching in the tackle and barely put a foot wrong all night.

Max Bird and 10 passengers.

Some glorious football, ruined once more by Collins. Get him gone.

Don't worry, Collins will save us. 20 minutes of him complaining and throwing his toys out will surely make all the difference
