They had 73% possession but didn’t do much with it, Akpom got on the half turn way too much

I’d bring in sheaf for Eccles on Sunday

maybe Allen for godden

Nerves a wreck after that, we were under pressure for bits of the second half but fair value for the point. If we take a lead up there next Wednesday we can hold it.

But for that lapse near half time we’d have all 3 points I reckon.

Middlesborough played in 3rd gear today.City need to raise their game for play off matches

Realistically, so did we. Vik barely broke sweat and they were petrified whenever he touched the ball.

 

[Boosh]

So what's with the bitterness and putting Blackburn down?

You’re such a dork ent you, hope you don’t get a ticket for the final

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Millwall taking it well!

 

[Alkhen]

Anyone else sit like a wally in the 10 min online queue to see if the tickets were live yet?

I'm not bitter at all, it's worked out for the best for us!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

What a game for Brereton Diaz to finally turn up

 

[RegTheDonk]

I know its not the same as being able to get a ticket, but actually felt like we all there together in spirt. Fantastic, well done the City.

High noon in a Semi-Final now.

Yep, had to be sure!

 

[Dickie]

If we make it, who’s going to tell Oggy and Clive it hasn’t been called the Premiership for years?

What a game for Brereton Diaz to finally turn up

Had both games on but gave up theirs at half time as Blackburn were all over the shop. Amazing come back

 

[Jonny Barton]

I wonder what Dom Hyam is thinking right now

I wonder what SISU are thinking....

 

[Ashdown]

Fuck off SISu, hail our king Robins, the City are back !……For now ….:

Delighted for those racist twats at Millwall to miss out

 

[clint van damme]

This has aged well. Love a reactionary wobble.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Well done lads, I never doubted you


My reverse luck works again

Agreed but I don't think we can judge too much on today's display, the stresses were totally different, must have been difficult for the players to play freely when one mistake could sink us. Anyway we were well on top until their goal. Then it was just about managing the situation, there were so many permutations we couldn't play our game. 2nd half was about not over committing and not conceding which we did well.

 

[Flying Fokker]

FUCK OFF SISU…City are back. Robins is the man, King should play Poker…

 

[Boosh]

Little mix on blast for the journey home?

Man when the adrenaline leaves you just feel knackered I'm gonna be tired next Sunday!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Fair fucks to that mentalist @Paxman II for calling this before the season began and sticking with it even after the terrible start.

Didn't we technically finish 7th in league 2?

 

[The CableGuy]

Its bonkers how this has worked out so far. For weeks we've been begging Blackburn to drop points (and they did), and when results elsewhere were putting us under pressure today, we needed Blackburn to win - and they did, from 3-1 down.

 

[Boosh]

If only Robins played attacking football like thorn @covcity4life

 

[The CableGuy]

Didn't we technically finish 7th in league 2?

....maybe? Doesn't matter right now but that underlines the unreal job Robins has done here.

 

[Balli001]

Didn't we technically finish 7th in league 2?

No

 

[djr8369]

To think Wilson scored in extra time then the Hyam own goal. Surely there’s a script…

That's bonkers even for ChatGPT and yet....here we are. Hyam must be gutted for leaving a play-off team (not his fault).

Technically we finished 5th

Couple more weeks of struggling to sleep and 10 shits a day then

Ten Shits Hill. These nicknames are coming up thick and fast today.

 

[Balli001]

We were 6t

Technically we finished 5th

We were 6th
