[Terry Gibson's perm]

Southampton haven’t let them settle and start to kill the game as they do, saints really are going for a late run

I see Preston had just one shot all night.

That's them blown it now too.

 

[robbiethemole]

Just need Bristol to do Norwich and Watford to do Hull at the weekend and it’s still not settled! ( blind optimism)

 

[skybluericoh]

For me the play offs were only a distant hope this season. I was more worried about a massive hangover from the shoot out, and total rebuild.
to be in a semifinal and a very slim hope of top six at this stage of the season, I think is a success.
Of course there has been some disappointing results, but there have been some encouraging results and performances throughout the season.

And the glimpse that we can be a good side and have a platform to build upon.

Pompey coming up! One of my fave away trips so happy with that - Good club as well

Just a shame they are to be joined by pissing Derby ffs

Easy away jaunt though, and they'll bring more than Rotherham, so a few extra £££s for us. Every little helps.

Never seen a fanbase rock up to a game with us with a bigger chip on their shoulder than Derby the other season, tossers

It’s like people saying that at least Morrisons was available for shopping deliveries during the pandemic

Not sure it is; why is having Derby in the Championship akin to having a pandemic?

 

[Ash]

No problem with Derby in fairness, played them hundreds of times over the years without incident. Always have the fond memories of them participating in the 6-2 last Highfield Road game

 

[Tommo1993]

Not that it’s entirely relevant now, but Steve Evans gone back to Rotherham. Seemed to have a good thing going at Stevenage. Seems daft. Suppose they’re waving a bonus at him.

I mean it could help send blues down if they have a new manager bounce.

I’m comparing Derby to Morrisons not COVID!

Rotherham has a far bigger selection of kebab/curry/SFC places for him

 

[alexccfc99]

Come on Fat Steve - Do what we couldn’t do on Saturday please

 

[Tommo1993]

I reckon he’ll keep them up

Perfect timing, Blues have Huddersfield away after Rotherham.

Yep - for all their celebrating last week after beating us last week their job didn’t actually change

they still need to beat Rotherham and not lose to Hudds

WBA should be a couple up v Leicester. Great block on the line for one of them.

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

1-0 Leicester after Johnstone has missed 3 decent chances for WBA, they've done pretty much nothing until that

 

[Sick Boy]

They’re so jammy that they’ll probably go up still. Hopefully they won’t be able to afford to sack Maresca.

 

[napolimp]

Leicester missed a penalty.

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Good, that was soft as shit

 

[SBAndy]

Mind boggling how WBA haven’t scored.

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

This is an incredible display of finishing from WBA

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

One of the most undeserved 2-0 leads I've seen

Counteracts a lot of the points West Brom have undeservedly taken this season then

Still a long way to go for that to be the case!!!

 

[skybluecam]

Playoffs would be well on if only we’d got results from Birmingham and Cardiff.

 

[SBAndy]

One of the balls of the season there from Kipre.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Hopefully with a settled and improved squad next season we will stay the course. That said I can think of a few other clubs who’ll think the same.

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Here we gooooo

Right. Except us beating Cardiff at home was slightly more plausible than her growing a set of balls.
