Stupidity to think otherwise.We were shocking in the first half. Should have been 3-4 down.But we improved as the second half went on. And Agard made a big difference. Lots of very intelligent runs into the channels. Sutton were what I expected from this division. Very hard working. Very organised. Players well drilled. But by 60-65 mins, we were on top and starting to dominate. I've seen enough this last two weeks to think there is a bit of spine and a bit of remorselessness in our side. That could be enough to make us contenders. I agree with some of that but.... to not create a single chance for 92 minutes makes me think otherwise. And that is totally down to the manager. There is talent in the group but we are cluelessBBC stats say 12 attempts and 4 on target.Did they all come after 92 minutes.?OK I wasn’t there and can accept we are not yet near our best, but if you are going to be negative at least get your f**king facts right..

Papering over cracks. Stupidity to think otherwise.

That could be enough to make us contenders. If the Rowe piledriver doesn't count what about his 2nd half chance (after 30 seconds or so ) Side foot it in 1 1 and maybe a different gameGot to say we were poor and it reminded me when Brentford came and steam rollered us but we robbed them as well and remember their players lying all over pitch at the end unable to believe they hadn't won I agree with some of that but.... to not create a single chance for 92 minutes makes me think otherwise.

I didn’t go last week and I’m referring to today’s game - so what did you think, IDM?
Zero chance we'd have got those two goals last season. What a result. Some proper fight shown. Those 5 minutes are why we love football! Ignore all the rubbish about not creating chances - we scored 2 goals and have the three points!

Putting the performance and the result to one side, I can’t remember the last time I left the stadium buzzing like I did today.More of that feeling, please.
All the same folk on here moaning would be the same ones moaning if we’d played them off the park and lost. It’s a great win and a very good start to the season
Not sure about it being a shocking performance but definitely a shock to the system. Credit to Sutton who didn't care how many fouls they gave away, they were on us like a rash and we didn't respond with the brains to counter it. Clayton was on his own in midfield with Biggins mainly a passenger. Rowe wasn't as involved as we would like so we were over exposed in midfield. Our full backs couldn't get out so we relied too much in the long balls. Ironically, towards the death, Ro Shaun Williams moved into midfield and managed to provide some link from back to front. With Agard and Kuleya added into the mix we got behind them more often by being a bit braver on the ball. At the end of the day, we probably learnt alot more today AND managed to get 3 points. Great way to win a game that.Far too early to be hammering any of the players or the manager.
