It won't be on Sky, because it should of been played during the 3pm black out, even though its been moved to midweek, sky don't have rights for distribution.

Also think the team will be as followed tonight

                   Clark
Sterry   Byrne   McGrath   Senior
            Gotts   Robinson
Mols             Bailey           Haks
                     Lee

10 are logic and then I just have a feeling Robinson might get his first start.

Was thinking the same. Hoden reckons it was given 30 seconds into the game.

Think sky sports who are at the game live commentary but no highlights said 38 seconds

McGrath deserves a shout out. Header after header after header won tonight. Get some paracetamol down him for the ride home, head must be pounding.

Great win, i think its going to have taken the pressure off for the Wycombe game of which i would take a point right now but hopefully 3.

20 corners against us, don't think ive ever seen us concede that many, nor seen us get a penalty after 30 seconds?

A quick google search shows Witton Albion were awarded one after 6 seconds against Chester in an FA Trophy fixture, not sure what the record is for that

It was a huge win and well played that defence - they took an air raid assault in that game and stood up to most of it well.

Not the best game we have ever played though, so little football played or any quality from either side. I know conditions were terrible and a wins a win, but I wouldn’t want to watch us play like that every week.

I’d love to know what amount of crosses came in our box in that game, the last 30 mins was constant crossing

Things went for us, the result all important, but there is more than one way to win a game of football and to a man we worked hard defensively and rode our luck a bit but deserved a break.
  Qver a season every team ends up winning games with stats that give the impression that they were outplayed but get a win, some teams do it more regular than others and over the years we have been more on the other end of things.
  Tonight's result is massive well done everyone for a backs to the wall defensive display up and onwards. and on to the weekend, and hopefully the same result.

Yet we only conceded once which should give the group a real boost after some of the capitulations we’ve had this year

Going 2-0 up early against a counterattacking team is just the perfect scenario. Sat in and they had loads of the ball but weren’t qualified to use it.

Not seen it but Burton claim after watching it again the offside goal was in fact onside.

We watched the game with audio from Radio Derby. Both commentators, on seeing the reply, agreed that the lino made the correct decision to flag for offside....just!

I thought offside in real.time, they didn't half moan their players mins.

Just heard there's been sirens in Burton, sounding the old clear from constant aerial bombardment.  Loved how strong that defense was last 10.  We were better on Saturday and lost but we'll take it.

Could I buy and collect a ticket on Tuesday? Not 100% sure I can make it yet, but just wanting to know I’ve an option on Tuesday if I need a ticket.

Forget that, looks like the decision has been taken out my hands as we’ve sold out!

In other news I’ve seen both their strikers have been linked with moves away today, something to keep an eye on.

Additional tickets will be available from the ticket windows at the Pirelli Stadium before the game.



Just seen this, a bit poor for those who wanted standing and bought seating as it’s all what seemed left.

Will make the decision tomorrow but I’m tempted in making the trip.

Go for it Karldew, you know it makes sense!

I’ve made a late decision to go after checking with Burton that tickets are on sale before kick-off.

Great decision to go in the end!, great start, nervous finish. Things are looking good!
