In 6 weeks Jolley has turned dross into a football team. Players who I wouldn't previously have trusted to water my plants have put in massive performances. Well done that man!
Summerfield mom, but can't fault anyone today. County were dreadful.

I cannot remember who it was who sang "Save the best till last" but I reckon Michael Jolley wrote it. Best performance of the season by a country mile. Despite its importance to both teams it was clear from the first minute that Town wanted it more than County. Summerfield was fantastic. BOTH central defenders did as well as they did in Nottingham in December. Woolford is a totally different player in that position and I do not have the words for Hooper other than to say he was a complete revealation today. As against Swindon Davis came on and used his experience for the cause. In our little corner of the Pontoon we all felt Town lost a bit of impetus going forward when Cardwell went off and Matt came on. Proof if it were needed that your average fan knows next to feck all! Magnificent header..what scenes! The last time Macca sprinted the best part of 100 yards to join in the celebrations was at that little game at Wembley just short of 2 years ago. A word (again) for Macca. I cannot wait to see that save on the highlights tonight. Simply magnifique. For me the difference in outlook between now and a mere two months ago was summed up by two Town defenders busting a gut to get back and clear a goal bound shot off the line.

We have called referees all season but today OUR FRIEND gave the best performance by a referee for a long time-I couldn't fault him and in a match which could easily have boiled over he kept complete control.

Be interesting to see who stays and who goes next season. I honestly do not expect wholesale changes amongst the contracted players as they have done the business for him and the club once Slade disappeared over the sunset. The players and manager will hopefully have bonded strongly during that time and I can see a few tweaks here and there - up front obviously where a proven goalscorer is needed - but don't be surprised to see loyalty being repaid.

One of the most entertaining games at BP for a long time. More drama than all the Slade games added together. I am actually starting to like Hooper. McKeown showed his good and bad sides. The problem remains in front of goal but the rest of the team is a much better unit. May the unbeaten run continue.

We thoroughly deserved that some epic performances M.J has given Woolford and Hooper have more confidence. one breathtaking run from Hooper skinned his man and went directly into the box full pelt just lacking a clinical finish.
Woolford looks totally at home playing in midfield playing people in with clever little passes.
Still don't know how Macca clawed that ball out. Clarke for his goal and goal-line clearance.
Clifton put a real shift in and almost scored a peach with a curling shot that hit the woodwork.
Collins and Summerfield immense. Rose winning balls and spreading the ball out Hall Johnson looked brilliant until he had to go off injured.
Was totally peed off when they scrambled in the undeserved equalizer near the end but that brilliant header by Jamie Matt in the last seconds really brought the house down what a barnstorming finish. I'm physically and emotionally drained and I was only watching.
M.J'S Hair got seriously rearranged as he got mobbed by thousands of grateful Town fans lol.
P.S. County were utter shite to be honest, No wonder manager Nolan was seething and tried every trick in the book to sway the ref who took no notice and had an excellent game. Their fans were reletivaly quite despite their numbers which showed how dominent we were.
7,100 crowd got great entertainment all three home stands in fine voice B.P.was really rocking at the end.
M.J. record UNBEATEN AT HOME FORTRESS BLUNDELL PARK AGAIN ..................................................FINALLY.

We should write a letter to hi holiness the Pope in the Vatican seeking canonisation of Lord Michael. Failing that he should be allowed to graze his sheep free of charge for the rest of his natural life over the West Marsh.
