Too easy, I think the pressing game has worn them out now.

Archer did really well pressing them to make that one happen, good on him.

God it’s such a refreshing change to watch a no alarms safe passage game against lower league opposition.  Remember lambert making all sorts of shit excuses when we would lose at home to Orient.

Mate more recently than that. Luton, Burton are still somewhat fresh in the mind.

Legion and 6-1’s is a classic H&V trope along the lines of WDBTTP

Marvelous has looked quite tidy overall. As has Lansbury along with two really nice assists
