jimmmyreay tweeted: “If (IF) we beat Ipswich on Tuesday that gives us 21 from 10. Given our 10 have been tougher (on paper) than those of Lincoln, Hull & Ipswich I’d fancy us to at least match all 3 over next 10, and maybe beyond if momentum builds. Clear improvement needed but not unrealistic. #SAFC

@Buntingfootball tweeted: “Made hard work of it but three big points away from home. Back to winning ways was absolutely crucial today. Left it late but got over the line and that's all that matters right now #SAFC”
