We're clicking now. Good all round from everyone. Terry's not my favourite person but he's been rock solid of late. A class apart, and Chester too. I wanna give props too, to a guy who is still a little maligned. Mr Alan Hutton. He's had his ups and downs it's fair to say in 6 years here. But any time it seems like he's on the scrap heap, managers keep coming back to him. The fact he's in and playing at left back also says a lot. He's not the best player in the world by any stretch but I've a lot of time for Hutts because he's a proper trooper. Model pro and we've had dozens of absolute shysters come and go during his time here. We've seen people waste away and disappear in a cloud of fart, or players just drift off in shame and disappointment. As much as some want to see the back of him, I actually think all told he's been one of the best buys of the last 6 years. That's not to say he's been a huge success. But even in the darker times he's just kept on plugging away. He doesn't hide and he's kept himself in good nick. He might shank crosses into row z but for large periods in his time here he's been treated like our main playmaker (such was the tactical ineptitude of many of our managers). He wasn't even the best player today, but he was solid, pleasingly quiet today and got on with his job. Our horrible last season in the top flight he was one of maybe 2-3 players who could look at themselves in the mirror and say they gave enough. I for one don't want to see the back of Hutton. He annoys me sometimes I'll admit, but I love his attitude and he's a credit to the club. But would you have his babies?We'd end up with sprogs looking like Sloth from Goonies, but yes...I would have his babies.That head down charge through the middle towards the end was a thing of beauty.I do like a Hutton charge. Much like a Reo-Coker charge it can often end in disappointment but during the charge itself, majestic, like a leopard at full pelt chasing a gazelle, there's that moment of promise, that faint hope of an end product. But he keeps going. Lets face it we've had so many players who just disappear in games or go hiding. He goes for it. For better or worse. (In all fairness he's generally solid and dependable).

Was concerned when I saw the bench but thought we applied ourselves from the start. Onomah and Davis pressing them high up caused them all sort of problems.All played well but special mentions for :Terry - the most accomplished CB since God. He does not even break sweat and makes it all look so easy.Hutton - I'm not his biggest fan but he works his socks off and I think Taylor quite rightly will have to wait.Whelan - thought he was MOTM tonight. Was involved in every break up of their play in the middle and played simple balls to get possession backDavis - completely rattled their back line and ensured out attacking moves flowed. Deserved a goal for his efforts.Really enjoyed the game and felt we looked in control throughout. Even when they eventually had a spell towards the end it was like we almost let them as we oozed confidence that they would not scoreWell done everyone UTV

We can't be happy with a play-off place, Bruce has to go balls-out for automatic promotion. There's no one to be scared of.Wolves taught us a lesson.
