Well done Town, lovely to see 2 up front and some goals. Much improved from Marquis, who looks so much better with some legs next to him.

Got to feel that final 30 minutes is probably most important of the season. Had we lost against 10 men today would have been a real kick in the teeth but to get 5 goals and the win is really a big boost
Defence still a big concern and against better sides we’d be struggling but getting Marquis on target twice is hopefully the start of him getting more goals and pleased to see Lloyd score again too

I think we are out of relegation places on goals scored! If that is true, can we end the season now please! Scratch that, we’re back in the relegation zone! |

Please let's build on this.
The Start of easier games but Exeter are no mugs.
Just sort the defence out.

So to concede 3, 2 of which is when they had 10 men shows how leaky the defence are |

There's probably plenty you could analyse today and come up with some negatives, on this occasion, its a win, away from home and we've scored 5 goals, not often we can say all of that. Let's just be happy with that for tonight

Well done Salop! A fantastic result. Two goals apiece for each of our two strikers. We look much better with two up front but we really need to sort out our defence. As for Matt Taylor, what a soothsayer: we did end up blowing somebody away after all.

We owe a massive thank you to the Crawley player who got himself sent off. Game was only heading one way at that point.
We have to have more creativity in the side if we are going to go with 5 at the back

Plenty of questions for Town to answer, but after scoring five away from home now's not to time to ask them, well done Town.

Keegan type football perhaps.
Hopefully Marquis and Lloyd can be the new Udoh and Bowman.

Benning positioning for the first goal, Gillied terrible block J.Feeney who was playing LCB being dragged out to the right wing which led to a goal Ojo kicking out at their player in front of the ref and could easily have seen red Hurst line up Hurst's tactics Hurst's reluctance to make subs Only having a 3 man wall for the free kick when it was clearly going to a shot The ref's terrible hair cut I could go on but none of it matters as we won! Plenty of positives to focus on! |

Pure relief when they scored the second goal,I thought we were stuffed .I'm very pleased that we have managed to score some goals and come back to win it by scoring five goals.

Well that was a thrill a minute. The two upfront and some vigorous midfield pressing made us much more of a threat and both strikers can kick on from their two goal haul. Toto looked much more comfortable in the middle of a back three and his dominance in the air from our corners with a goal and an assist turned the game when it could so easily have gone pear-shaped. Lets build on that at home on Thursday.

Someone has said the moaners havnt got anything to moan about. Whoever that is get a grip. You havnt watched the same match. Had there have been an extra ten they would have scored again through our rubbish defence. Hurst doesn’t know how to defend. We were very lucky today and it does not bode well for the future.

It’s not Hurst that doesn’t know how to defend, it’s our bargain basement defenders who don’t know how to defend. Tiny budget equals not great players. |

We'll be looking back at this either as the turning point moment in the season, or as a preliminary League Two game!
A league win with a quintet of goals is not to be sniffed at, all the same.

Surprise,surprise we win and the moaning minnies disappear back into the woodwork. We are having a dire season, with dire defensive performances. There is a limit to anyone's tolerance. We are all town fans and we won't to win and play decent football. But unless you want everyone to be the three monkeys then fans will moan when they have week after week of c**p defensive mistakes costing us so many games. We all want by town to do well, we all won't town to score goals and play entertaining football. We all care very much about the club and the team |

To be fair Toto didn't seem to be the problem today but was watching from a dodgy feed.

Agree that Marquis looked a different player with Lloyd playing with him. They complement each other well - Marquis as a strong holdup player who is a bit of a s**thouse, and Lloyd as a nimble pressing forward who never stops running.
Thought Rossiter had an excellent game today. Tidy in possession and won quite a number of challenges. Has to be him plus one other in the middle when he’s fit IMO.
Good to see us hanging it up to the back post for Nsiala from corners as well. Causes havoc, as Nsiala will beat nine out of ten players in the air as long as it’s a decent delivery. As a lesser side in the division we really need to make the most out of set pieces.
Shame about the TOR situation. Something must have really gone wrong behind the scenes.
