The important thing now is from a recruitment perspective they can plan in detail much earlier their plan A knowing we’ll be in the Prem - no way we will go down now 13 points clear, 13 left to play. Conversations can be had with clubs / agents etc.

And player contracts sorted for those who we want to offer extensions to.

@Hinchcliffe's Corner ; no worries mate, be happy.

we rode our luck mate

Great win, that. Shame Dyche wasn't sacked earlier. Be much higher.

ha-ha-ha, amazing! I'm the only one who gave Harrison MOTM, I was so critical about him recently so I felt I owe something for the guy , especially that today he ran his legs off!
and must say! Iroegbunam! In one single episode he showed what I is so rare nowadays and what I really cherish in a football player - desire to play the episode to the end, they clawing, pulling day you fell and rise and go for the ball - wonderful.

At 1-1 I had Alcaraz as my MoM he was adding another dimension of skill to our play , but Beto was working so hard , and after our 2nd goal he seemed even more inspired to work his socks off . You’ve just got to love him, so an easy MoM in the end . Could have done with one of those. “ multi” thingys to vote twice tonight though .

The light at the end of the tunnel is starting to get bigger and brighter

Are we far off Europe places.

I think that's the best result we've had all season, total turnaround by this team. I'll be first to hold my hands up and say I wasn't happy with Moyes coming back and for the life of me I thought Beto was the biggest load of garbage I'd even seen for his transfer fee.

I was very wrong on both counts.

The lad was virtually unplayable tonight.
Alcaraz played well in the 10. Harrison put in a great shift again, Moyes is getting a real tune out of him. I thought Branthwaite was exceptional again really pulled his fellow defenders out of it. Tarks and Myko at times were all over the shop.

Great day today:

we win
Arsenal win
Leicester lose
West Ham lose

 

[banno]

Alcarez....assist and goal with his first start. Actually didn't think he played that well but you can see he has something. Few more games under his belt I believe will see him grow into games more and more.

 

[witchdoc187]

Moyes is home isn't he?

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Not our best performance, yet found a way to win despite injuries and a short turnaround.

Beto MOTM. Honourable mention for Alcaraz getting a goal and assist on his full debut.

 

[PITA]

Lad will be useless, and get sent back said the Orange.

For once, he got it wrong.

We are as close to 5th as we are 17th.....

Also if this continues at all, we become an incredibly attractive option for potential signings as a team on the upswing where the players are all happy, there will obviously be fair competition for positions, and the ownership/stadium situation means players know there will probably be significant backing to kick on.
