East London born, W12 raised, now SE local - caught the train to South Bermondsey from Peckham, very much expecting our winning run to come to an end today.
They looked to have dragged us down to their level today first 15 minutes or so but we seemed to settle, not too much noise from their supposedly vociferous home crowd. Could tell we had that extra bit of quality but was never 100% sure we would make it count.
Glad to get in at half time 0-0 with something to build on, they should have troubled us way more considering they were the home team. A classic lump it up with no angle on it to Big Posh Matt job from them, very tidy finish from Nahki to make it 1-0, was never convinced we'd see out the clean sheet.
Their fans started getting up for it as soon as they made it 1-1 and would have made them favourites to go on to win it from that point but felt very good to be on the right end of a keeper cock up for once.
Saw it out pretty comfortably once we made it 2-1, snuck out of the away escort back to the South Bermondsey and a straightforward walk home with 3 points in the back pocket.
Not a vintage performance but great to see us stand up for ourseves at the archetypal Tough Place To Go.
Three away wins before October, can't argue with that. COYRs, Leistner MOTM |  |
