After a 5-0 loss you don't want to be going away to a Premier league side,but hopefully we will raise our game.I would love a shock,but a good performance is needed mostly after Saturday.

NNOOO Dack misses a penalty, and now we have equalised, jjeezzz we could have won this 2-1 and we let them off the hook, I hope this does not come back to haunt us.

GO BIG BLUE, great win, knew we could do it, well done B D, you came through in the end , even if there were only 7,000 there, now come on Footie Gods give us that BIG MONEY MAKING DRAW WE NEED,both Manchester teams enter this week so if you give me a choice I will pick Manchester United please, thank you.

Blackpool this week,but saw the live text on Twitter from half-time.It looked like every player battled until the end,and put a real shift in.Nelson back to his best as well,glad Edinburgh kept faith with him.It shows football is a funny game if you look at Saturday and then last nights result.I never believed we would score let alone win,so a massive achievement to win away at a Premier League club forr only the second time in our history.This was the lift the club needed after Saturday,hopefully we can build on it.

Gills inconsistent ? There's a new one. Great result though so well done the lads.
