Mark Ogden suggests that Shay Given's penalty save might be our 'Mark Robins moment.' Of course, we won't know until the end of the season if it is or not. (And my must admit that my sense of what Mark Robins' goal is entirely vicarious - I was eighteen months old when it happened.) But, it did feel like a moment on which seasons hinge.
This week has been the most remarkable and transformative since the takeover and Robinho purchase. It has been the first time that we have had a real taste of what our riches might bring, and a sense that we are a step or two further along the road than the last two months have suggested.
But let's win at the Reebok before we overdo it.

We've always done well against good teams and been beaten by the poor ones. Our progression has changed the wins to draws, that's all...so far!!! I believe the next two games are as important than the last two.
It's the quality of player that is beginning to shine through as they become more confident in each other's abilities. When the forwards know they are supported by a team that work together, their own confidence grows. It's been a poor month for confidence but they will improve from now on, Arsenal game was pivotal in that respect
I'm not so sure how big this moment is. We are a team of big game players who always up their game against the big sides and in the big occasions. Our problem is motivating the players in games against smaller sides. These two games don't banish 'Typical City' - A major feature of 'Typical City' is doing well against the good sides. Another feature of 'Typical City' is providing false dawns, so let's win at the Reebok and make sure that this isn't one of those
