I might be being a bit glass half empty …

… but we were only a couple of moments from going 1-2 down and also conceding in the second half (and no doubt then going on to the inevitable last minute equaliser). It’s thin ice at the moment, we need a couple more results before ordering the bus parade. Definitely there are improvements and confidence is coming back, but it’s so fragile still.
