I'm more than happy to take the two points but I really hope that winning doesn't paper over the work that still needs to be done. For 60 minutes we were completely out played. However, I hope that I'm not the only one that can see (Brian Mc) that the way forward is Watkins and Jones-Bishop for the rest of the season.

I hope we can build on this.

If having a 'fat lip' qualifies as a game missing injury these days it doesn't bode well.

Normally I would agree tvoc but his lip was huge and probably required stiches. No point risking him doing it further damage at this stage of the season.

Agreed, but I suspect there was damage other than a 'fat lip'. Ali has had a rough time with injuries over the last couple of years, but is a gamebreaker when fit, so we need to get (and keep) him fit. IMHO it's pointless playing him when he is not right, and we have ample others to fill in, saving him from injury that would rule him out for longer.

Yes I can well imagine it was very sore.

Don't put any salt on your chips for a day or two.

Or vinegar!
