Sickeningly biased ref. There’s no defending that shit show.

My lad said he's from Wakefield, a mere stones throw from Leeds, the free kicks against Simms were hilarious

If someone had told me at the start of December that Simms & Wright would have scored 35 goals between them by 6 th of April, i'd have asked you what you had been smoking.

Think most would agree with you

 

[messiahrobins]

To a man they were magnificent against the best team in the division man for man. Given we have beat Wolves, Leeds and Leicester, we are already premier League level really, the base is there we just need to strengthen the squad numbers now to finish the product off.
What a great day.

Fantastic result and one which I was not expecting. If we can beat Southampton we are right back in the playoff mix.

Bidwell and Eccles and Sheaf absolutely superb, but I thought Thomas was MOTM, absolutely sublime at the back.

 

[Major Tom]

Jake Bidwell MOTM

Just for that header clearance

We can afford to lose that as long as we beat Birmingham. The Hull game is huge as will the remaining games be obviously but this was such a big result. I fancy us to get a draw at Soton as it happens.

 

[MalcSB]

Van Ewijk keeping Summerville quiet, and Palmer also had a quality game…

Sheaf did some unsung work doubling up on that side too defensively, and I don’t think he gave the ball away once…

I’m afraid he did give the ball away, more than once.

I don’t think we can afford to lose any.
We could win all our remaining games and miss out on the playoffs by 1 point.
Mind you, taken literally, winning all our remaining games would mean we won the FA Cup.

 

[stevefloyd]

Just a little snippet, when we won the fa cup we beat Leeds and Manure ...just saying

Thats what he meant, he never gave it away once it was a few times

A point there will be a good result, must beat Hull at home

wrong post quoted, but very funny!

There will be twists and turns, personally i think we will make FA Cup Final and the play off final as well. We are a far better team than we think we are, and even the players think they are. Eccles a good example. He was international class today.

 

[shmmeee]

Think we need to win 5/6. Knowing it’ll be all of them bar Brum or QPR if we do do it.

Just think this season we've lost to Preston twice , Cardiff twice , even Rotherham away and conceded last min equaliser to Huddersfield & Swansea but beat Lesta and Leeds.

 

[shmmeee]

If we’d just not shot ourselves in the foot against Cardiff…

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Unfortunately for us every side we have left except Blackburn will have a lot still to play for.

Think we need Pete’s son to ref the Southampton game in the interests of balance

Happens like that with a brand new squad, i.e inconsistency. The positve aspect is obviously this squad will be better next season looking at the age profile and having had this transitional year together, and given what they have shown us we have to surely now think winning the title next season is doable if we dont go up this season.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

He’d be less biased for the last 10
He’s normally very controlled even he was up at one sheaf foul

 

[Tommo1993]

Since the game at Elland Rd, I said Leeds are the best we’ve come up against all season. I have not changed my mind.

Southampton realistically have nothing to play for. They’d need several clubs above to implode for autos, and can’t be caught by the teams below without imploding themselves (even then they’re basically guaranteed POs)

I can’t see the autos race going into the last day either, so expect Ipswich to know whether they have autos or playoffs before we play them. Plus, after Southampton we’ve got our harder games at home which should be an advantage.

We will just like I believed we would!

 

[SBT]

So refreshing to see us be the physical team roughing up a more technical side - Kitching and Collins won so many duels, Haji and Simms the same. Been ages since we had genuine physical presence across the pitch.

Southampton will arguably one of our easier matches left, they are play off bound and i doubt will be at it so to speak much like Middlesboro were this time last season. The atmoaphere on Tuesday will be flat as a pancake as well from their fans so i fancy at least a draw. Birmingham i feel will be the harder match.

Hope so regarding Southampton. And agreed about B’ham, local rivalry and will be fighting for their lives. Sounds like they gave Leicester a decent game as well.

Birmingham are in a bit of a false position, they have some good players there. It will be an animated atmosphere i would think so that i think, given they are fighting for their lives will be our hardest match of the season that is left.

 

[Sick Boy]

What did you say about the Cardiff match?

Probably draw.

Rooney’s appointment dumped them in the shit but really they should never have been in this much trouble. Agree it might well be the toughest game left

 

[clint van damme]

As far as the play offs go

 

[play_in_skyblue_stripes]

Hanging on for dear life at the end, players hardly able to move, a great win. Oh and the half time memorial is a shit way to find out someone you used to hang about with has died, rest in peace Rachael

Sorry to hear that, she looked so young. Similar thing happened to me two seasons ago.

 

[Jarvo87]

Impressive all round.
Crowd/atmosphere best for a while.
10/10 performances from team and MR/AV. Love days like today
