Bristol Rovers 1 Saints 5

Well, it was a tense affair watching the BBC live text - at least for the first half. Having seen the goals on TV since, I can think 'what's the problem?'. Rovers scored first - a soft penalty really, but well put away. Then Rickie Lambert got into his stride and banged in two in quick succession just before the break. The second half saw Spiderman score a contender for goal of the season and this was followed by two more from Lallana and Puncheon. Job done.

It was encouraging to see that nearly 25% of the fans were Saints fans - well done everyone. The victory was brilliant but the edge was taken off the evening by two late goals from Huddersfield Town against Walsall. If Walsall had managed to hang on to their lead, the prospect of the play-offs would be closer to be being realised. Let's hope we can win again on Saturday at Yeovil.
