Tbf that's pretty much what I pictured except I had him with a gimp ball too.

I really want Simms to do well. If his confidence is high he’ll get a few goals. But it’s undisputable that his touch, passing and all round awareness is poor. We forgive it, and at Championship level for £3m it’s about what you get. But let’s not pretend he’s Regis.

Chuffed to bits for him. Clean sheet a big boost.
The take from the cross at the end was everything you want from a keeper too. Takes pressure right off.
However - he didn't have a shot to save.
Same on Monday.
We can't restrict every team to 1 or so shots on target in the next few games.
Ay some point he will come under pressure - he needs to be a proper goalkeeper, not just one that distributes well when this happens.

Dominant performance and we’re playing excellent football and finding that form at the exact right time.
Genuinely delighted for the boo boys too:
JDS - excellent game, the majority of our attack came down our left and he was involved every time. Did well against Fellows, who it seems wasn’t licking his lips in the end.
Collins - claimed a cross well, did the gamemanship stuff and was excellent on the ball - his distribution set us up for numerous attacks. Confidence is building, and like him or not, that’s important
Simms - stats might not help, but if you can’t see the difference his presence makes up front then perhaps go back to watching football when everyone played 4-4-2.
Great day all round - let’s hope for non complacency on Monday!

@TomRad85 did.
Just settling down - thanks mate.
Nerves and subsequently the bog were shredded in the morning.....
Bit of an anti -climax as it was fairly comfortable!
Mind you, the meltdown on the group chat, and the Mrs here has been monumental!
I'm being quite magnanimous and it is winding her up even more!!
A morning reminder that we’ve all but mathematically ruled them out wouldn’t hurt.

I suppose before this week many would have taken/expected a point here today and 3 points versus Hull last Mon. So in the end it all amounts to the same thing. Hope Bristol C and Boro slip up at some point and we get 5th place.

Tough fixtures for Bristol on the road next week, very tough final day fixture for Boro also.

No matter what some people say the Hull performance was good. Todays performance against WBA was good. The main difference was we won 1 drew the other.
I'm expecting similar performances in the next 3 games. If luck goes our way or not will have a big say on the results. But the good news is we need less luck than others. Middlesbrough got it today with their late penalty. 2 wins from our last 3 games should be enough especially if one is against Middlesbrough. 2 wins 1 draw guarantees the playoffs.
Anyone still shitting themselves?

I’ll be shitting myself until it’s mathematically impossible for us not to make it. Next three games are all teams scrapping for their lives or in direct competition. Long way to go yet.

You're obsession with Bassette seems slightly unhinged, particularly on a day we should surely should be celebrating the positives.
I think if anything he is trying too hard, and that the 5 minute cameos he's getting aren't doing him any favours to that end. His performances against Sheffield United and Spurs earlier in the season suggest there is a player there somewhere, and not the dud you're convinced he is.

And then shit ourselves all over again when the play offs start. It's a pant punishing time of year.

He seems to be reffing all the games along with Ray Charles. Must be in demand I guess.

I think that might have something to do with our new manager.
He now has a hat trick of winning against teams we can never seem to beat, Preston, Swansea and WBA,
All-in-one season.

Very close versus Norwich as well before our last minute collapseI think that might have something to do with our new manager.

We honestly made this game look easy, if you were a WBA fan you’d be fuming how outclassed they were by a team 3 points below them.
Possibly the most comfortable game I’ve seen us won this season. We could’ve won by 3 or 4 goals if we really went for it.

whne they are all fit and playing well Grimes, Sheaf and Rudi are some midfield.

Grimes was such an important pickup in Jan. Now especially with Torp out. I also think Grimes makes Sheaf better and they complement each other well.
sorry, it was the doubtful ones. And Lampard. Really rates torp, seemed a bit gutted his seasons done

Good, confident game all around.
For those who may be interested, I find these predicted final table results interesting. If you scroll to bottom it gives predicted scores for the last 3 games. Losing to both Plymouth and Luton but still beating Boro to finish 6th? A little funny if it plays out like that...
