We discuss the blossoming partnership between Robinson and Grant, Chris begs the club to sign Matt Clarke permanently and we also ask why was there such a negative reaction to rumours of Jayson...

FINALLY, Chris & Pete have a victory to talk about after the 2-0 win at Hull. We have a look at what made the difference in that game, was it the switch back to three centre-halves which we had been calling for?
