Brilliant win. Think we’ll get past the 50 point mark now. Massively proud of the lads.

Massive credit to every single player tonight for the guts right across the board, especially in the second half. I don't think I could keep count of how many headers Thomas, Davies and Ntlhe won. Character.

thought I wasn't going to have heart failure when it was 1 nl then 2 nil and then you just knew they'd get one but that defensive display was absolutely magnificent, hard to pick a man of the match everyone played their part !

Our aim now should be catching Harrogate. Would be good to finish above the other promoted team.

Let's hope we can keep Rob Kelly ,he seems not to want to be a Manager,he took over from Craig Levene at Leicester.
Tell him we are not appointing a Manager but a coach and he is the one.

Had flash backs of Tranmere a few seasons back when they got their goal back. We stood firm. Great performance.

Kellys main masterstroke has been bringing J Taylor back in.

We are safe. What a relief

The back 3 were superb today, they’ll still be out there now winning headers. As useless as Jolley was fair play to him for bringing in Davies and Thomas. Seems daft to think we’ve got Matt Platt to come back at some point as well, I really hope we can try and sort a deal out for Davies next season, he’s exactly the sort of player we need in the spine of our team

Credit to C Taylor tonight too. Not sure if he'll be with us next season but really played well tonight. Not technically speaking but a really solid performance from him. The 2 taylors in the middle did a great job tonight.

If Andrew could get fully fit, he would be a real player for us next season too

Great knock down by Andrew for the goal. What a player to have up our sleeve for the later stages of the game. Hopefully he will be fit enough to play more minutes before too long.

If anyone had said after the Morecambe game that we'd be on 46 points with 6 games left, they would have been laughed out of town. We looked as good as finished after that match. The turnaround under Rob Kelly has been nothing short of miraculous.
