Did someone say put Cameron Jerome at centre back on here?

He would have undoubtedly been even more magnificent than MJ but we'll never know :)

It's great when we aren't able to control the game, have to ride our luck, get a bit of help from the ref, concede easy chances to strikers who couldn't hit a cow's arse with a shovel and somehow manage to grind out a win at a stage of the season when all that really matters is the 3 points.

But IMO it's greater when we play brilliantly, outplay the opposition with the attractive football that Evatt says is "our way" and score plenty of goals to get the 3 points.

We could do with a bit more of that if only to make it easier on the old ticker.

Just back. 

Went via the in laws in Coventry for the weekend. Got back to Cov around 7, set off home after some tea around 9. Ukrainian Easter, so absolutely stuffed with cheese and smoked sausage. Great day so far.

Breakdown just after Keele: radiator coolant hose gone. Great. 3 hour wait, with irritable missus and excitable labrador... to get towed to Sandbach. Quoted £300 and another 1, 2 hour wait for a different lorry to get home. "Fucked off" doesn't even cut it.

So instead, my absolute saint of a mate (originally Everton, but now a BWFC ST holder for 2 seasons, and coming to Burton on Tuesday) picked us up in his Fiesta.

We'll fetch our car tomorrow (today 🙃).

What you do for 3 points, eh?

I'd have settled for a 1-0 win over Cambridge and a 1-1 draw at Oxford so well chuffed with that 'reset'.

Conor Bradley's influence just seems to grow and grow.

Don't like where we have to go on Tuesday so hoping against hope for a positive result. Their tails will be up after the weekend. Any points at all very welcome. Three will be bloody brilliant.

In the last few weeks Burton have beaten Sheff Wed., Wycombe & Barnsley. Albeit stuffed by Peterborough and Ipswich.

Great day out and result. Nerves jangling again like Exeter. God we have been shit this year apart from about three games but should get in the playoffs now.

really need Santos fully fit before the playoffs- don’t think Toal is as important as long as Johnston and Jones keep fit.

Hope Oxford stay up because their fans are very friendly

Wanderers wanderers wanderers

Don't Celtic sing You'll Never Walk Alone too? Someone definitely does.

Wandererersx3 gets sung by Wycombe.

Blue Moon fair enough.
