His team losing? None of our players were sent off? He hates it when his tactics end up screwing him?Apart from a lack of catering what was Steve Evans actually complaining about?

Sam Winnall ..I take it all back... sorry
Teams without pressure on them can be dangerous. Burton just beat Portsmouth and Doncaster... plus we’d need them (Barker especially) fully fit if we were to have a chance in the playoffs themsleves. No point in him aggravating the injury?Nah - Tuesday is our toughest remaining game. Need our best possible XI for that one.
Wombles are our only remaining opponent with anything to play for (they still need a few more points for safety) and they're in great form.
Plymouth, Burton and the Shrews may all be mentally on the golf course already......
Imagine the scenes if fans were there when that third went in?
A very very odd match indeed. I am bloody ecstatic that we managed 3 points, but something isn't sitting right with me.
How do you go from being so very poor, to then scoring 10 goals in 2 matches, and then being so very poor again for 3 quarters of the game today...only to turn a two goal deficit into a win - with a full back grabbing two late goals!? Ive never see anything like it to be honest and I just can't work us out.

Ive never see anything like it to be honest and I just can't work us out. Its not as if we battered them for 70 mins and their keeper kept them in the game before being hit with a sucker punch. The Gills were so much better than us for a large part of it and the comeback was so bizarre.

Thought Agyei did more in 20 minutes than Shodipo has in two games
Love the way his strength and pace gets him past players and today he did it on the wing
What the bloody!WHAT THE ACTUAL FUUUUCKK!!!
That’s why it wasn’t over weeks ago!Great result but a terrible performance for 80 minutes. Didn't think I'd ever come away from such a dramatic victory feeling down, but there you go.
Taking it one game at a time.

The ennobled of Grenoble (Rd). COYY!What a wonderful, ennobling quality the light lends to that image.
Just keep that towel in place. The off licence might just get the wrong idea.Only just calmed down / towelled off / thrown the duck in the bin.
Wow. Just wow. Could it?
That took balls. Balls that have often gone right back inside when the worm has started to turn this season. Can the players keep them dangling low for the final four matches? If so, it might be on. They grew up a lot today. They wanted it.
A few special mentions:
Sam Long - Take whatever you want. Take my television. Take my car. Take my house. Take me.
Sam Winnall - Welcome, at long last. Please get a shave and a haircut before every game, and stay off the KFC. More of this. Great strike.
Dan Agyei - Don't try a volley from 25 yards again. I've stuck up for you when you've been badly and unfairly treated but that effort was positively Trainer-esque. Behave yourself. I can't do anything for that.
Karl Robinson - Well done. You lost your head before half-time with Evans and Raynor and fell for their tricks, but you showed great character to calm down and focus on managing your team in the second half. Really good interview post-match, too. You deserve your share of the credit. Keep your head.
I remember being stood outside the ticket office next to the London Road turnstiles in 1996, right after the final whistle of the Shrewsbury game, queueing up with my dad to get tickets for the Peterborough match. Everyone was buzzing and knew that it was on. Although it was a very different type of win today and the situation isn't quite the same as it was that season, the feeling is very similar. Just go for it and give it hell.
I'm off to get more cans, and I'll be wearing the towel and f*ck all else.
