Get in there boys, good win on the road! This is a run now, lets crank it up a notch! Notts County will be tough but we can win there

Another great win. This is exactly what we needed, a run of wins. Saturday will be a tough challenge, but a win there would definitely see us as one of the play-off contenders for sure. Up to 6th!

Just seen a clip of Vincent's strike that hit the bar. How the officials didn't give that as a goal is beyond me. It was clearly over the line, should have been 5-2.

I think we are even in the shake up for 1st place - only 7 points up the road and Bromley didn't look any better than us when we played and Halifax seem to be a surprise package. Long long way to go but we are on form and when Saikou is back, just imagine the damage we can cause!

A fairly comfortable and well deserved win.
Should have been five as Vincent’s shot looked to be over the line.
We are definitely play off contenders.

There will be a lot of debate about this shot. Taking it frame by frame, I believe the correct decision was given - the whole of the ball did not cross the line - hit underside of cross-bar and deflected out. Although the ref would have just based his decision on the fact the ball returned to the field of play and linesman was in no position to give any other decision. Must have been a lot of top spin on the ball as it defied the law of averages,

Absolutely fantastic result. We really have clicked as a team since chesterfield, and we still have key players injured. Roll on Notts County, if we beat them the worlds our oyster. Mellow yellow, I have to disagree the ball in my opinion was clearly over the line, but thankfully it didn’t effect the result. Crowd estimates between 175-200, wow what support. COYY

Unless my eyes deceive me, that's nearly 2 foot over the line !

That is the whole ball clearly over the line. Linesman should have seen that.

Just watched Nathan Holt's VLog on you tube. Great viewing!

Could not believe that Vincent's 'goal' was not given. Evidence clearly shows the ball well over the line. I was in line with the keeper in that shot. Everyone - apart from the lino obviously - was 100% sure that it was well over the line and the clip above proves it beyond doubt.

Great performance, especially the first 25 minutes where we tore them apart and could have easily gone in 5 up at the break.

Tougher game to come on Saturday, but it's only Notts County and they're not very good are they.
