Gabriel looked good, Joseph motm first half. Everyone else looked tired apart from CJ who just looked shite

Has to be in the area to be a pen. You don't seem to know much about football.

he was shite, no way it was a pen - a) outside the box and b) that Daley fella would have been proud of the half twist double pike that he performed.

Great win, good start then scrappy. For me, we need a defensive midfielder in the window. We need to maintain possession much better and control the game. Shame Kenny is going, we have to replace him.

That goes as standard, that shouldn't need setting by the manager

Battling away win. Three league wins in a row 
. Energy levels good after the drain of extra time on Wednesday. Fantastic effort from the manager to the fans. Cheers

Maybe but I reckon it's a lot to do with scoring more than them, every chance then.
CJ scored a goal from a tough position, ran his socks off defended well, caused them lots of problems when he moved up front. Not sure what the fuck you're talking about.… and guess what! We’re still eighth

Which we have failed to score in most of our recent away games so my point is a valid one.

No excuse for the gaff not to be rocking next week against Charlton. 3 league wins on the bounce, and an away win finally - we seem to be hitting that 2nd half of the season form we needed to get promoted. They're doing their bit now, it's time to do ours.
If Appleton hasn't been sacked it certainly adds another dimension. Still remember the fucker gesturing towards us when Charlton equalised at their place. Hope he gets a classic Bloomfield Road welcome!

We've drawn twice home and away over 90 minutes with a Premier League side and won 3 on the bounce in the league.
It feels like things are heading into the right direction. In a weird way, this large gap between us and the Play Off places might just force our team to be more consistent.

Shout out to O'Donnell today, thought he looked solid and nothing he could do about the goal.

A great win and hopefully the away form monkey off our backs.
Three league wins in a row, talk about having to battle hard to stay in eighth place.

We seldom win at ANY of the Bristol/Bath stadia that Bristol Rovers play at, so this is great, isn’t it?
I’m particularly pleased for the travelling Seasiders, who have got their reward.

If he didn't play we'd miss his eccentric take on the game of football. I've watched that finish back a few times now and it gets better every time. Set that aganst his shanks and airshots, counter with his endless chasing and covering, headers in various directions and you have it all. We'll always welcome him back when he retires and that for me is the mark of a player that fits the tangerine shirt.

Scoring in the 96th min, last minute winners are one of the best feelings in the world.

Great win away at the Gas and probably deserved it at the end, not been a happy hunting ground in the past for us. Some good performances especially from Coulson and Joseph, but Hubby is becoming a bit of a worry at the moment with his reckless play and passing. We also need to keep possession of the ball a lot more rather than treat it as a hot potato and give it away too cheaply but take nothing away that was a very good away win which will hopefully put us on a good run of results.

It wasn't all pretty but a brilliant display of grit saw us over the line. Hopefully this can be the turning point for our away form and season. I thought Joseph was immense, as were Ekpiteta, Casey and Coulson. My Guinness tastes even sweeter tonight.

Agree with Rhodes, though he looked tired today. Needs a rest, having no midweek game will do him the world of good.

There were quite a few saying Joseph is a poor player and that Swansea had undoubtedly got the better of the deal. It was nonsense after so little game time.
Because whatever did they do for us!?
Totally agree I was one,I was wrong he could turn out to be one of the signings of a decade

Was pretty sure it was in the box, do we have a replay yet?
