Five-star Robins Get Party Started

The hosts blew Huddersfield Town away and the result was rarely in doubt from the moment Josh Brownhill got an 11th-minute opener.

Terence Kongolo put into his own net, with Niclas Eliasson, Ashley Williams and Andreas Weimann all scoring for the hosts, with Karlan Grant and Juninho Bacuna in reply.

A delighted Johnson said: “The lads are going out tonight. I don’t think I went as far as saying I would ban the party if we didn’t play well, but I might have hinted at it!

“We had a setback at West Brom in midweek and I asked for a response. Today we were absolutely brilliant against a team who have improved since Danny Cowley took over, and presented another tough test. We have been sending Ellias-son for weekly judo sessions. They have ensured he uses his body better and has the strength to match his ability.
