Conveniently ignores any positive results
Blackburn just won away at Millwall). M'Boro. beating everybody atm

We will become stronger as the season progresses and - assuming we don't go up - will be even stronger next season.
I'm fairly confident about that - and yes, we might lose tonight, That can happen. C'est la vie.

Boro were in disarray at the time
QPR arte just utter shit and will go down with a whimper if they keep Ainsworth in Charge
Blackburn we got lucky

We should have beat Huddersfield, at least a point v Hull and Bristol

Yet we beat Middlesbrough who have won 6 on the spin and Blackburn have won their last 3. The league changes week on week.

Bristol also got lucky on Saturday but that doesn't suit your narrative does it? So we win 3-0 but it's cos boro are shit? Several games we have been leading and playing well, Leicester for one. Proves we cant take you seriously when you can't remember that we did actually get a point at hull...

Several games we have been leading and playing well, Leicester for one - The efl started giving out points for playing well now have they?

So we win 3-0 but it's cos boro are shit - Literally got shagged every week for the first 7 games

Proves we cant take you seriously when you can't remember that we did actually get a point at hull - We conceded that late it felt like a defeat held my hand up before on that


Bristol also got lucky on Saturday but that doesn't suit your narrative does it? - Did they? Because we had literally 1 shot on Target and bar a 20 minute spell we were lacklustre

Everyones obsessed by points..and rightly disappointed when we dont get the results I think our performances deserve.

Definately think our performances are getting better. Think we can and will go on a run soon and could potentially 3/4/5 on the bounce. Hopefully that run starts tonight.

Everybody is obsessed with points because that’s the basis of a league table - the higher the points the higher you finish…

our performances aren’t getting better at all. We’ve been a 20 minute team all season. If anything we played well against Leicester for 70 mins and got progressively worse since

that being said - if we win tonight and I think we will… we’ll only be 2 points off the play offs

By the time we go on a run Leicester and Ipswich could be out of sight and we'll be playing for the playoffs (It's a lottery then) .As it stands if Leicester didn't score a point in the next 7 games we would have to win them all just to be level with them and Ipswich who have a game in hand would have to get none from the next 5 and us to win them to overtake them.I must admit I thought watching Leicester the other night the pressure of such a long run may be telling if Sunderland had their shooting boots on it may have been a different story.Having said that their next game is against QPR so maybe an easy ride for them.
On a side note I hope tonight we do as well as Mansfield did last night 34 shots with 11 on target.That was some going.

Everyone used to dream of playoffs. Now getting their twice in a row wouldn't be good enough cos it's a lottery?

Well I do think it's a lottery .League 46 games get 1 wrong and you have plenty more to get it right which are a lot of games. Bad game in the first of the playoffs and your out. As for getting there twice in a row from where we are at the moment it looks our best hope.

It would be amazing achievement to get their two years in a row wouldn't it?

Lets be honest, we are not doing great. Apart from Leicester who we probably should have got at least a point against, we have played a lot of the poorer teams, or teams who were not in the groove like Middlesborough and Swansea. Game for game, I think we are about six points off last year with a lot of the tough games to come. That said, we are a new team with a lot of injuries. We could probably finish anywhere this year, although I would imagine the automatics are beyond us. Don't see us as a relegation side. Bristol got lucky as did Huddersfield
