That had everything for me. Could this be the end of us hanging on in games? We looked assured right until the final whistle.

Toughest looking defense we've had in as long as I can remember. I'm now fully onboard the Rowett train. 

Interesting to know the destination of that train. Buy your tickets ASAP.

What's also interesting, is that after we play the dirties on Tuesday, there'll be only Villa in the top 9 we haven't played.

Struggling to find many faults with the players today.

Carson 9 - Barring the error (which he made up for) he was fantastic today.

Wisdom 8 - Bounced back after his poor performance last week.

Keogh 10 (MOTM) - I still can't understand how a defender as good as him at this level can be criticised so much, he's absolutely fantastic.

Davies 9 - Keogh without the passing and attacking runs.

Forsyth 8 - Seems to slowly be getting back to his best.

Ledley 9 - Same as last week, new longer contract please. Did muck up 1 big chance when he spooned it to Johnson who was offside, but I'll let him off.

Huddlestone 8 - A couple of dodgy passes that nearly cost us but good performance overall. 

Lawrence 8 - His defensive work today was excellent.

Vydra 7 - Thought he had a decent first half so would presume it was an injury that forced his withdrawal.

Johnson 8 - He seemed to be everywhere today.

Nugent 8 - Ran his socks off and what a goal that was.

 

Martin 9 - Brilliant performance off the bench. Created chance after chance and caused their defence all sorts of problems.

Winnall 9 - He looks like a big lump but his work rate is unbelievable. 1 minute he's in their box trying to score, the next he's filling in at right back while Wisdom's being treated. Out on loan, not had much game time, but he comes on and puts in that much effort, thank you very much Sam!

Thorne 10 - Beautiful human.

 

Rowett 10 - Brilliant subs and didn't just sit back after taking the lead. I've been a little bit critical of how defensive Rowett can be when we're in the lead, but today he didn't sit back on a 1-0 lead and even after they equalised he could have just settled for a draw, but instead he had us go straight back on the attack. Good luck picking which of the 4 forwards start against Leeds.

Bloomin good result today. Winnall hasnt played much but has got us three points so far already.

Not bad for a player who seemed like an unecessary extra forward when he first signed.

Great result, and even Radio Derby was an exciting, positive listen.

Good interview with GR just now, hopefully we can get beyond 80% performances (his words, not mine) soon, if we do we will go very close to top 2.

Team spirit seems to be rising all the time, momentum can be so important, so anything from Leeds would keep us ticking along nicely.

I can't help feeling we've turned a corner somehow, let's hope the positive vibe keeps coming.

Dawes and Ramage having another very professional exchange :whistle:.  TBF to Ramage, all Dawes wants to do is pick  ut a player for criticism.  He is really poor.

What a great result that is though. Bit of momentum building.  Very good work.

It's nice to have some positivity on the forum, and around the club again! The whole doom and gloom from early in the season was very tiresome, and I'm starting to enjoy football more again! I just hope we can continue with the positivity and getting behind the team.

Especially pleased for Rowett today, hasn’t made it easy for himself selling 2 fan favourites and leaving another on the bench, took some real cojones as Troy Deeney would say.

Come in for a great deal of stick whilst he’s tried to change the mentality in the team, we didn’t “bottle it” today.

Some will say the stick has been deserved, others not, he hasn’t taken a popular direction that’s for sure but it’s really starting to come together now. 

6 games unbeaten, 3 wins, 3 draws, conceding just 3 goals in those games is great form, not many will want to play us right now. 

How many will go to Norwich and pick up 3 points this season? Results like these are what makes watching X Factor later more tolerable as I hum na na na na na Sammy Winnall in my head. ?

Plus the 3 games we’ve lost this season have been at home to Wolves (2nd) and away to Sheffield Utd (top) and Bristol City (4th).  Puts things into perspective......

I am getting old but one or two questions

Where did we sign Sam Winnall from

Is this the first time he has been a reserve for a first team match

Is this his first goal for the first team,and if so well done young man

But what a fantastic day,never thought we could beat The Canaries,was Deliah at the Match.
