Bedders gone down again. He's been very composed today, happy to come forward and ping passes about as well as the usual defensive work.

Pen claim for them. Our passing out form the back got too tight, and we perservered, giving it away. They are coming into it more. Bednerek blocked a powerful shot.

Goals are all very well... But 73% possession!

...bounces harmlessly off the death star wall... 🙂

Good range for a free kick....

Alcaraz got his pocket picked there. Downes took a yellow to stop them getting an effort in. Good to see the players support each other after it.

He's not been central to any of our best moves. But Adams is pulling players away, creating space and is never far away from picking something up, if it gets to him. Suiting our more attacking approach to day, to have an extra body in a position to hopefully take advantage.

Alcaraz also working back really hard. We are working hard for this level of control. Good to see.

Glad that wasn;t pulled back when Alcaraz went down. Lovely work from Stu!

Could it be?! Yes it is! The second!

AA tracking back! Great stuff. We are pining around some really good passes. We've tested them through the middle and out wide with some passes from deep. All those possession passes giving us confidence and control.

Excellent move to get it to Alcaraz, who had compsure to pass to our goal machine!

Lovely, Lovely goal!

Passing move broke down. but some nice movement. I thought Stu was going to shoot. Really good pass from Manning too.

We seem to be camped out a bit further up than usual. Passing it around well into their half.

Amazing dummy from Alcaraz to get us a corner!

Foul given,. but had time to do better with that header there.

Some early more direct passing out ot the right, to bring in KWP. Not long ball, but with no smallbone, we don;t have quite the same set up for linking play again.

COYR!

I wonder about the expiry dates on the yoghurts in Martin's fridge. 🙂

£8million rising to £10million, if his legs stay attached. So, £8 million. 🙂 May have an impact on any Adams interest? We won't want to lose anyone else up front.

Sadly, our unbeaten run has to come to an end. But not in this fixture! 2-1 to us, and their goal is a really annoying one, when we don't get back quickly enough.

Certainly. The interview ran itself. The interviewer gives Jones some room, as it's a tight space to be digging your managerial grave in. But some questions could have been added, like... "How big a challenge is balancing front footedness with aggression, to get out of relegation places?" "While playing against 10 is clearly harder, today Brentford's 11 also caused problems. How do you stop complacency being an issue against teams with higher numbers of players?" "You've said that you don't see your players out there. Do you agree with Le Tissier, that they've been abducted by aliens and replaced by reptilian clones?" "When you say you've accommodated certain things, do you mean the squad are living in your house? Is that to make them more aggressive, if not front footed?"

Ungrateful
