Just what the manager ordered; another three points gathered, this time at the expense of our 'bogey team' and a clean sheet into the bargain. Hell, Hedman even saved a penalty!

What a difference one player can make. Sutton must surely be front runner yet again for Player of the Year. Few players can influence, not just the game, but the attitude of the whole team the way he can. The opening goal in this match was pure Sutton; winning the ball in midfield playing it out to McGeady who foxed his marker before crossing for Sutton, again, to come hurtling in to the box and head the ball in.

We played with a bit more confidence today, although there's still evidence of a worrying capacity for self destruction as amply demonstrated by Varga's penalty concession.

But on the bright side we were more attacking than we have been for weeks. Not too difficult, but we have to start somewhere.
