Absolutely superb result! Well done lads and to all the faithful that had to put up with the M4 delays today. Brilliant!
"Up the F**king Boro...!"
("Hats-Off" to Taunton and Welling today for fine away wins...)

Really good 3 points on the road. Bath were not at it at all but Boro were excellent and fully deserving of the 3-points. Im sure they’ll blame the delay but it was the same for both teams and it was our players stuck on the M4 while theirs were relaxing.
The first goal came when Guy Hollis recycled a long throw, hooking it back in for Edon Pruti to meet with his head and deliver a brilliant looping header in to the top corner from at least as far out as the penalty spot.
We nearly got a second a few minutes later from a truly sensational effort by Aaron Kuhl, an acrobatic bicycle kick from the edge of the box, which the keeper just managed to get his finger tips to and push over the bar (think Trevor Sinclair v Barnsley and you'd not be far off).
Guy Hollis himself nearly scored twice with two back post headers from corners, which both went agonisingly wide of the far post.
The second goal, 10 minutes in to the second half came from a delightful cross field ball from Aaron, finding Ricky in space on the left wing, he delivered an inch perfect low cross for Matthews-Lewis to run on to and although the Bath goalie somehow managed to block his first attempt with his body, as they both fell to the ground in a heap the ball fortuitously fell to Matthews-Lewis, who despite being sat on his arse on the grass had the goal completely at his mercy and was able to prod the ball home from 5 yards.
It’s a real shame we’ll never see the goals again, as Bath only seem to release highlights when they’ve won or drawn, which is a bit ungracious really. Oh well 6 points from 6 at Twerton Park since our return to the NLS, can’t be bad!

Great summary of the game. Living in the west country I've seen bath a few times this season and they were atrocious today compared to other games, but partly down to Boro ability to nullify their threat.
Edon Pruti was immense today, seemed to win everything at the back and a great header for the goal. Mention for Hollis delivery in recycling the ball.
CJ marked their playmaker Smith out the game.
Great ball from Kuhl to Ricky to tee up the second goal.
Overall, one of the most solid games I've seen all season, Jack in goal hardly had anything to do it seemed!
Safe trip home all!
