.....ok, so it's just another 3 points, no more than you get for any other win, but today's result at Shrewsbury feels to me to be worth so much more:
In recent years we simply wouldn't have got that result, but this Team just keeps grinding out the results week after week, relentlessly....which is just what promotion winning Teams do.
So "yes", I reckon that come next April, I'll think back to today's result as the one which made me believe.....we're going up!!
- against a Team, and at a ground, where we don't have the best of records
- 3 more goals without our "best striker" even playing
- another clean sheet (4th in a row)
- away from Home on a cold winters day the week before Christmas
- following on from a huge win against second placed Bolton
