[Great_Expectations]

Sky coverage is all about Brentford.

And the Brentford injury table they showed is pathetic compared to what we’ve had this season.

Think he quoted the wrong post mate.

Hope so - odd post otherwise!

 

[Grendel]

Walker is a box striker like Godden but at a better level

O Hare will get offers in the summer He’s miles above the rest of the squad

Can't have been a proper colonoscopy if you're sitting afterwards; was probably just a semi-colonoscopy.

Always confuse the two - only my gram-ma ever seemed to know the difference,

 

[Dickie]

It's starting to get very crowded.

Will a trip to see @tom88’s wife fought as essential travel?

 

[covcity4life]

The fakin bottlejobs are sleepwalking into mid table again!

Brill performance. Proud of them.

Pusb

We've just 2 fixtures left this season that make you think.... Ohhhh shit... And the rest it's for us to go and get the results.

You look at today and you think we have every chance of survival

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

I’m all out of sp*nk

*I'm so lost without you*
*i know you were right*
*believing for so long*

 

[Macca]

What a team, what a manager.

Gonna be a lot of bellends crying on here tonight.

we won 2-0?

 

[NortonSkyBlue]

I hope Brighton is okay, haven’t seen a post from him and I know he has been struggling. That win should put a spring in your step....

 

[Otis]

Agree with caller in....less fucking about at the back. We arnt good enough at this level to play out against the quality of strikers in this division.

We were still a bit slow at the back on occasion, but we were at least a bit more no nonsense in getting the ball forwards or out of play.

 

[Grendel]

Why don’t you stop moaning for once and crack a smile. If you can’t enjoy the result today you never will.

you are the harbinger of doom before every game!

 

[usskyblue]

There’s a small troop of flaming hardcore twats and a dozen or so melts that follow them.

The hardcore are absent and the melts post like they’re fucking born again Christians that never posted whiff in their life.

Advanced apologies to the anti hindsight police

 

[David O'Day]

He does have a history of whiff chatting

Habitual nonsense monger

 

[Great_Expectations]

The key now is to continue to play like that. We’ve shown signs of it all season, but never for a full 90, or it’s been ruined by silly mistakes.

That has to give the players confidence and potentially MR to play offensively more often too.

 

[Covstu]

Fair play to their manager. A very honest review even when the twat interviewer tried to push Toney being a factor. Denied that he was key But just a factor

 

[clint van damme]

anyone watching another Championship game this afternoon?
Think I might flit between Norwich v Rotherham and Wednesday v Blues.

 

[covcity4life]

Biamou played huge part in both goals. Wonder why went off so early?

Baka poor when ckme on Unforuntley. A goal from him would have been cherry on top lol

 

[Ccfcisparks]

If I’m Darth Vader then you are certainly Palpatine when it comes to doom.

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

Could we have stumbled across anther lucky shirt?

It will be the only kit we’ve ever had that we’ve got a 100% win record in

We only need 6 more performances like that to be safe I think. Hopefully though, we can continue at that level and pull well clear.

 

[SleepyGinger]

How nice is it to watch the 3 o’clock scores role in with 3 points already in the bank by the way.

 

[covcity4life]

Peter calling in to moan about people moaning.

what a plank.

Because you are one of the miners?

Your favourite striker bagged a brace today!

I’ve done what I call the worst case scenario bet. I make an acca of every worst possible result for us this afternoon. If one loses then I’m happy because cov have benefited. It makes sense in my head lol. Currently 950/1

 

[Evo1883]

This season could and probably should have been totally different.

We've had a wretched time with injuries to key players... Weve missed so many sitters and hit the woodwork ludicrous amount of times... A bit more luck and we could well be sat bloody 8th or 9th today

We're only 3 players off I think being a damn good side at this level

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Brentford lost a derby match to a struggling QPR team. So I don't think they were complacent. I also think taking off Kelly was the right thing to do. Like Walker we need to ease these players back.

Oh I agree entirely about taking him off (now the game's finished and we won). I was wondering if it was worth risking starting him at all in case he reinjured himself given this was a game I fully expected us to lose. I thought if anyhthing if we were losing we might bring him off anyway for the same reason with the game gone. Given that we were able to take him off with a two goal lead was unbelievable.

But wasn't it nice to have the two goal cushion that we felt made it Ok to take him off. Usually we can't afford to consider resting players who've played a lot or coming back from injury while in a winning position because the game is too close and the result in the balance.

steady on!

 

[theferret]

Points taken off Norwich, Brentford, Swansea, Reading and Watford. The top 5, and yet people keep banging the 'we can't compete' drum. We can, and when we're a mile off the pace like against Norwich, it is OK to be critical.

Great performance today.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Robins reminding Sky that Ivan Toney isn't the only injured player in the Championship...

 

[Evo1883]

steady on!

Think about it, we're 9 points off 7th as it is... Bit of luck this season with injuries and what not we'd be top half

We're 3 maybe 4 players off being a damn good side at this level

 

[SleepyGinger]

Robins sticking it to sky there, love it.

What’s he saying

 

[Evo1883]

Robins sticking it to sky there, love it.

Missed it what he say

 

[Esoterica]

Love how we've just had an amazing victory against a top side and 15 minutes after the end everyone has already descended into using it to gloat and back up their season long points of argument!

 

[Grendel]

If I’m Darth Vader then you are certainly Palpatine when it comes to doom.

Actually I’m not I think and always have we will just about scrape through - I also said when we signed him walker was about the only statement of intent we’ve shown for years along with o hare who I’ve consistently said is by miles our best and most important player
