It's nice to have an honest assessment from an opposition manager instead of the usual crap that leaves their mouths.



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

There is a sense of pride that we’ve managed to make Burton feel like they’ve been in a battle with a Non League side

A few on the Burton forum have a bit of entitlement about them, they were not very complimentary of our style of play alluded to us being non league, I suppose it comes from their highly exalted position in league 1.

Let’s be honest our pitch at the moment doesn’t lend itself to a silky style of football, to be fair. But we adapted better. They seemed very one dimensional i.e. launching the ball into our box
Once we’d sorted out dealing with that, there was only going to be one winner.

The side who played the better football in the second half won, we created the better chances and SHOULD have been award at least two penalties. What was Burton's style of football out of interest, lumpball.
I thought it was a comfortable evening for us, Burton never really threaten our goal, once we gone in at half time 0-0 and sorted out what was not working in the first, in the second half, it looked it was only a matter of time before we would score, a bit of luck with regards to our goal, but you make your own luck.

Will the football gods be looking over us in the fouth round draw, I hope so its about time we got a plum draw, fingers crossed.
We probably draw Fleetwood away, like most hoping for Man Utd for the obvious reason, personally away draw that can accommodate our fanastic away following.

I think there are some that have not forgotten or forgiven that fateful day in May 2010.

If their performance yesterday is anything to go by, they won't be a League One club for too much longer.

I think that’s almost a given. They were most definitely the non league looking of the two sides. Both centre halves were agricultural, and that’s being complimentary…

Their defenders weren't shy at putting the ball in the stands when we threatened
