Shout out to McKenna’s block on the line from the rebound to that quick free kick.

He had a quieter game but that was VITAL.

At 0-0, and surprisingly overlooked.

If you watch it back it was superb. He never gave up.

Pivotal moment.

I'm buzzing this morning. What a team performance that was. It wasn't about fancy flowing football it was about leaving everything on the pitch no matter what. Never give up and nothing was a lost cause. Energy levels will need refilling after that and a few players might need changing around for the next game but I think we have the spirit to cope.

That ^^

and Sambas save with his left leg cannot be overlooked.

Sambas kicking though? Is it only me who kaks themself when he has the ball at his feet on the edge of our box and he is looking to play it short.

We look a proper team who can win in different ways…

Blackburn dropped off and stopped pressing Samba very early in the match in an attempt to block off his passing lanes - but yeah his kicking was also off last night. Great saves and positioning making other attempts on goal look easy saves… Stilton used to do that too- make decent efforts look easy saves through spotless positioning…

The back 4/5 definately need to be working on how they beat a high press. They've not yet got the composure to play out properly.

All Im thinking is who is mad enough to take £500 of Bose speaker into a footy match and how on earth did he get it past security.

Absolute genius though.

That is class. Love the belief

Man Utd and Man City on their doorstep.

A lot of big club opposition on their doorstep is the only thing I can think of.

It is literally a small town near Burnley too, far smaller populations than other clubs in the league, Cardiff, Reading, Hull, Boro who never seem to average much bigger crowds.
