I lost out on £900 when Southend drew in the last 5 mins, but who gives a f***. This has been a good day. :clap:

All the football league goals can be watched on Sky Sports News at 7.... They've got a new thing called Goal Express.

Fantasic results! 1-0 feels great once final whistle goes :D

Nolan is a proven goalscorer at the PL level never mind this league. His job should just be late runs into box and score. Goals from the midfield are priceless. We still need to get a finisher, may be Baldock will start scoring once fully match fit again.

Can't disagree with that! would be good to have someone with Baldock who is a real poacher and goal scorer, still tough on the Heart when 1-0 up with ten minutes to go we start to go defensive, we let Coventry right back into it at the end and anything could have happened! we should have been going for goal 2 to make it safe!

A good win, i'm more relieved than happy..but not complaining. It feels odd in that we are joint top yet have had a bad run recently. I think the unhappiness is due to the expectation we would walk the league whilst playing great football, although there is room for improvement if that improvement comes we should at least win promotion if not the league. If results come I also think the football will improve as confidence gets better. Hears to a great 2012 :raver:

Just back in the car I'm the way home;

I thought we played really well today considering the lack of width (but that is no one's thought due to injury) we moved the ball so well at times & players kept popping up all over the park. That was a cracking side IMO with the only real thing missing from that side is a real tricky winger with a bit of pace.

Tomkins: was pure class!! He's surge forward & header back across the box for Nolan's goal was brilliant.

Faubert: it's like watching a different player & love it when he finds room out wide.

Reid: Grew into the game even tho Cov's number9 fell over if Reid came I'm a yard of him.

Noble: A complete performace from the man, brilliant coming off the left & right.

Collison: Worked hard & run well with the ball, just very poor defending.

PBD: Does he's job well & allows overs to surge on.

Nolan: Really liked where he played today & just pops up all over the place, think at the point diamond is he's position. Took he's goal well.

Baldock: Lively without being in the game to much & fadded, just needs games.

Cole: Really strong upfront & was pivotal in the 10miute push for the goal.

Sub: Nouble: We would be mad to let this boy go he is scary going forward sooo quick & could have grabbed a brace!

Big problem today we didn't actually have a left or right mid at times, Collison kept switching sides so we no one on one wing, making it narrow, thought we had no need to play Bouba Diop today.
