Edit... A very quick equaliser for PNE (83 min)

I would imagine the SMITHOUT brigade might be somewhat restrained tonight......

Great reaction to Boxing Day!

That man Bradshaw is a gem - Deano better sign him up on a better deal asap - if Bax got given a 3 year, then Bradshaw should at least have a 2 year one with massive buy out clause on!

Before Swindon, many would have said 2 points from the 2 games would be good. To get 3 (if we don't capitulate!) would be great, although most would have taken it / expected it the other way round with these two games.

Maybe we are just a better away team?!

Is this the best result of Deano's time? Totally unexpected. Much as I hate to say it, I still think the Franchise will run away with this division.

84 min, and Baxendale on for Cooke - fresh legs for running around and plenty of possession.

Close run thing between this and winning 0-1 at the Custard Factory..... :D

With just minutes to go, Manset on for super Tom Bradshaw.

Maybe we've toughened up a bit....today's foul count is a surprising 3 to the Dons and 12 to us !!!

Attendance 9,311 by the way.

well done the team and the manager..perhaps those who said we had no chance would like to eat their words. You should never write us off if you are a supporter!

That`s a great day at the office, especially after boxing day. 0-3 will do very nicely indeed. :D :D :D

I really hope the club have a deal lined up NOW for Bradshaw - what a player and what a signing. Smith's best signing?

I'm going to go and have a little lie-down now.....all this excitement can't be doing me any good. Then I'm going to make a humongous curry, after which I'll eagerly await the reports of those brave souls who went to concrete-cow land.

A brilliant result, couldn't be better. :D

Now now, only bad signings are down to Smith. The rest are pure luck :wink:

My old man has just txt me with the result. I havent even bothered looking today after swindon. Cannot believe it, I thought he was having me on when he told me. Fantastic win and 4 points from 3 tough games, 2 of which were away, is 1 more than I thought we could get out of 3 of the top 6 teams. Swindon was obviously just a blip as was rochdale :mrgreen:

Only disappointing thing for me was this result let me down on my both to score bet :cry:

Given the Franchise's ability to score goals at will at home, the nil is every bit as impressive as the three.

Brilliant! What a find Bradshaw was. Lets put those rent dodgers to the sword in the 'M6 El Clasico' now!

Swindon must really love us, three gift-wrapped points on Boxing Day and now this!

An excellent point made there!
Well done to the defence today, who were probably going to be a bit nervous after what happened 2 days ago. Be great to hear how Taylor and O'Connor coming back in affected things, and how they played.

Well done lads. A stunning victory!

Imagine how many Bradshaw would have without the injuries?

Just hope in true Walsall style we will not sell him to the first bidder!

Great result! Made Robinson's 250th game as Mongs manager one to remember for all the wrong reasons.

I remember the scepticism me and others had when we signed Bradshaw and how some predicted Cook would end up being the main man. My word that seems a long time ago. Dust off the contract we offered to Grigg and force Tom to sign it. Threaten to kill sheep from Shrewsbury, threaten to neuter him or whatever works just make him sign!

Uts!
