That is a very strong lineup, especially considering injuries. Joka not being overconfident at all, I like it.
Fair play Joka, saw the mistakes and made the changes. Something Zola could never do. Fantastic result, full credit to the players and managers for showing some fight
Vital confidence and belief restored for next weeks crunch game. Could be the springboard for a concerted push. One thing is certain to be learnt. Never start slowly against anyone. Fitting tribute of a game to Ken. I am sure he would have greatly enjoyed it and his relatives will have been touched by the tributes from the faithful this afternoon.
Mark Yeates with the 4th - fair play to him!!! What an absolutely superb come back - well done to all - can't wait for the highlights (only 4 championship games so should be decent coverage) Looking forward to some write ups but I fear everyone will be celebrating that one. :]]:]]:]]:]]:]] :drinking::drinking::drinking:
Wolves and Norwich both dropping points too! Good to see Boro and Derby will also have another match to add to their calendar as well
good comeback, shows a bit of resilience. can't start games like that though, this game means nothing if we get nothing at bournemouth.
Big problem for Manish tonight now. I'm betting on:- "Watford looked to be struggling in the 1st half as Blackpool went two nil up against the odds (we see Bpool scoring their two), but then in the 2nd half.....(Benny Hill crazy sax music starts up and film switches to double speed)...
True but I'd like to see Villa stuff bournemouth (although unlikely) and knock their confidence a bit more.
What a win! Great for all three forwards. All played well, and none got subbed. Same line up next week I hope. Edit, - except rest hoban.
Could be the moment when the players really start to get to get on board with the Joka way. Whatever they weren't doing in the first half, they have to believe now after that second half.
Any tickets available for Friday...I've got a sneaky feeling that I should be there to witness something special.
This game really lays down a marker to the rest of the division. Not for the fact we've beat Blackpool or even for scoring a ridiculous 7 goals in 44 minutes. But for the fact that every team now knows it doesn't matter what they do, it doesn't matter if they go ahead, we have the firepower to come back at them. That's got to scare them and it's probably the first time since after Xmas in Zola's first season that teams will feel like that about us.
