Game highlights here
I listened to the game on AVTV and it sounds like we played quite well overall.
Of course the point has been made on here by certain fans, that Rotherham are a poor team, but you can only beat what you have in front of you.
We apparently did that very comfortably today and as far as I’m concerned you can’t do much more than that.
By the same token, we’ll meet better sides who will give us a much tougher test and that’s where we’ll see more of what we’re really about, but for today we should just be happy that we got the result.
Tony Morley is a bloke I respect and his view was that Gestede, McCormack, Ayew and Grealish all played well along with Elphick and Chester at the back.
Gestede particularly seems to have had a great game, having scored two goals from headers and being close with another effort. It just shows that if you give him the service, he’ll get you goals and the crossing was excellent today.
Ayew did well and had the right hump when he was subbed and possibly rightly so, as Morley said he’d been our most creative player, particularly in the second half. But then it’s a long season in the Championship, and we’ll need to rest players as much as possible.
It was also nice to see Grealish’s name on the scoresheet too, after he rounded the keeper and scored from a very wide angle.
Overall, that’s three points towards the tally we’ll need to avoid the imminent relegation that we’re facing, if you listen to some and I’m one happy bunny, who’s out for a few beers later to celebrate.
Happy days!
Deepest condolences to his family, RIP Dalian.
Awful news. RIP Dalian
Remember that goal at Wimbledon and the equaliser against Tranmere in the LCSF Great moments

My thoughts are with your family, friends and loved ones
*** why are all my posts going into mideration? ***
According to BBC reporter Pat Murphy, a £4m fee has been agreed between the two clubs.

Jedinak to @AVFCOfficial for £4m depending on today’s medical & sorting out complex visa issues (an Aussie!). Hopefully all sorted tomorrow.
Isn’t Dr x unveiling a new signing after tonights game???? I thought jedinak was it.
Dr X ”the gift that keeps on giving”
Giddy….the problem with Jedinak is that when you change your employer you have to renew the visa…..typical red tape is holding it up. We could do with him for the Derby County game on Saturday.
I forgot that mate
*** more good news (hopefully)…..Lescott rumoured to be going to Glasgow Rangers. The new regime is working very well IMO. Just Gabby and Richards to go and I’ll be happy. The only one that I didnt want to leave out of all those who have gone is Gil.
Can’t believe any other team are stupid enough to take him. Great for us though
He is so slow that I think Scotland will suit him. Look forward to watching him trying to catch Sinclair in the ‘old firm’ game.
That will be a laugh
He’s become another third rate player in a second rate league
i think okore needs to do one too, before i start cracking open the champagne. but squad is developing nicely. away with the deadwood, in with more quality, more backbone and more integrity.
we are gonna beat huddersfield tonight, all the pundits (and ooohahaha ) will all stand up and take notice, claret and blue are back and we are going straight back up
