Well apologies for being all positive (particularly as I was

rather dejected last weekend) but I thought today was really good. It looked liked the most solid back four performance since our return to the Premier. The team kept their shape throughout the game with each player clearly knowing what was expected of them. I thought Bradley Johnson was man of the match and dominated midfield. Holt looked in better form and never let their two centre backs settle and all that was missing was the winning goal which we deserved. Only negative was the officials who really appeared clueless at times particularly one of the linesman who I swear was p****d. But it appears to me that Mr Hughton is good at detail. Now I know I could be giving him more credit than he deserves but the pitch was watered at half time and I reckon he wanted it done because he knew QPR would resort to long balls over the top for Cisse and on a couple of occasions I reckon the wet surface made the ball skip through beyond Cisse. All in all, really good performance.
