Well done chaps, surprised that Martin didn't get in ahead of/as well as JET and we shouldn't underestimate the value of our two Central Midfielders. Still Eight goals in a week is not too shabby. COYB

Yes they both scored and played ok but no better than ok. Lee Martin was a class above the both. if they deserved to get in, Martin did more than enough.

Yes, well done lads but am wondering if Messrs Martin, Hyam and Drury are feeling a bit left out.

Why is there a West spam defender in there? Conceded 5 on Tuesday as an unused sub and scraped a win against Millwall? must have played a blinder on Saturday then?

Well done lads - I always said that if we could get the team playing properly then we would make great progress. I also believe that if we can get Sonko playing a little calmer then he could be a decent centre half for us. A performance somewhere between saturdays and last tuesdays should make us favourites for a result this saturday - I hope that we get the crowd up a bit COYB!!

Think people saying that Nartin should be in are right, bit it really depends on the other CMs/ AMs in the league as well. But saying that JET only played ok is ridiculous, west ham he was on equal terms with Martin. Got to be honest, bot sure how Chops got in, but I wasn't at the Coventry game. West ham he was pretty good though

Thing about Chopra let's be honest, he doesn't give you much, but he's worth having for when people put balls into good areas. That's why some have said Chopra hasn't actually played that well.

You get the opposite I guess with Scotland, he gives you a lot more in general than Chops but probably won't score as many.

Yes, very well done to both of them. Wouldn't it be nice if a couple of our defenders could manage a similar honour?

Good call, but I think Lee Martin was our best player on the day. He terrorised their defence.

Jet now getting to grips with championship football and current formation of 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-1-1 has found his best position. He is the only player we have who can do the unthinkable and produce a bit of magic.

As for chops, strikers are judged on goals. Given the number of games he has started and his problems to have got 10 already is a good return. If he scores 15 this season that will he a great return.

Add in the form of martin and going forwards we look pretty good. Key to this have been drury and hyam.

Well done to jet and chops.
