Twatty Taylor scores for Poxford.WYHHB? In a heartbeat, he’s a proven goal scorer in this league. Ought to be, on £15k/week!

Spot on ... poor time to give away and has happened a few times now. Legendary GC team talk at half time and it’s 2-2 before the hours up. Please God he tells them to keep attacking and not defend deeper and deeper . This game is far from Over yet. I don’t think we have failed to win a game after establishing a 2 goal lead since we were promoted back into the football league.Close call today but some achievement though. really ? that's not a bad record and stat if true.

Excellent 3 points, still managing to stay on the verge of the play off places. More than I could have expected at the start of the season. UTG

GC appears to ride his luck atm...it's a great result at Rochdale, fair play, but we are doing it with half a strike force.
A brilliant move from gc to mix it up and change formation and personnel, other managers might call it a project change, but this was a change with focus and vision as it worked early on..
True grit has ground out 4 points in two matches where we could easily had none. It's the Rovers spirit to progress through adversity, and we are touching distance of play off place.
How many would have thought that back in August?
Well done, gc and his management team.

Great result today. Also good to see Bolton beat Fleetwood. At least we're not the only team to lose to them now!

Couldn’t recall that happening and after careful checking the last time we gave up a 2 goal lead and failed to win the game was 22/11/2014 in a 2-2 draw at Chester in the conference so almost 5 seasons now.

As dogged a win as you’ll ever see. But who cares? We were superb, two early goals and saw the rest of the game to its conclusion.
A huge word for Mr Jakkola also, what a keeper we have on our hands! This journey home is all the more sweeter, but for our safe hands between the posts. A wonderful day indeed.

UTG Not sure we could expect it w/o JCH, I assume that's the final league game he'll miss, particularly if the Sunderland game is postponed, although if I was Parkinson I'd play it whilst we're potentially missing probably our two best players.

He was playing wing back vs Bolton. I guess we must have a flat back 4 so he will be in his more comfortable left back role. Wing back or orthodox left back, he looked frightened to make a tackle. Just backed away from their right winger, until he was in his own penalty box. Hope he improves on that today. He did alright from what I have heard

Great result today and we certainly had to dig deep in the second half to hold on. In other news...MK Dons part company with Paul Tisdale after 8 defeats in 9 games. Were they not in the top ten fancied teams to go up at the start of the season ? It's a funny old game . www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50277858

To be fair... Bolton now have Daryl Murphy, Liam Bridcutt, Jack Hobbs, Chris O'Grady, Will Buckley, Jake Wright, Jason Lowe with a lot of Championship experience. How are Bolton able to afford them?

Great result so well done to GC and the team. Was it 451? If so well done to GC for changing a system which hadn’t worked for the last two games. Think he’s getting the best out of a squad who without JCH lacks a goal threat and even with him lacks any real creativity in midfield. Good to see Liam S back in, let’s hope he’s working his way back to his best. There will be worse results to come I suspect but a great one today to enjoy. UTG!

It's a funny old game . www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50277858After all those years at Exeter he finally left at his own volition for MK Don's, got them promoted at the end of his first season and is now sacked. It very certainly is a funny old game Russ.
