I honestly thought the season was doomed. Remember how everything was just going wrong. Injury to O’Hare day before season started, stadium issues, matches postponed, keeper howlers, blown leads, cup exits.. how it then became our most successful championship season ever is mind boggling.

We went for it (me + 3 mates). The idea of winning that play off final and getting a free premier league season ticket was just too much. The reality is that next season will probably be a championship relegation battle that we’ve paid £500 to witness but hey ho

In fairness they were both a move to the championship before prem. He’s already just scored 20 in the champ. I still don’t think he has the cleverest footballing brain or cleanest finishing but he has pace and power which counts for a lot. Will be interesting to see if that is still as...

I honestly think our fans play a huge part in this too tbh. Other teams will also have big numbers but they don’t have the noise we create. We have always done well in the important games since Robins’ return.

Think stick with what we’ve been doing. Sometimes being in form / in the groove is worth more than being slightly more talented. I like Sheaf but his last start was the first half of Blackburn (shudders).

It’s been phenomenal. Every season I think that the progress must finally be peaking, Robins finds a way to take us on another level. What a job the man and staff around him have done.

Can’t see why Man City would send him back to us (unless we went up). He’s already proved himself here and at this level. I think they’ll want one more new test for him and then he’ll be in their own squad season after

Both would be fine as 4th and 5th choices for me. Can’t see us getting much better as “stand-ins”

Fair comment. Have to admit to being surprised at how well Murphy has done

FFS!! Yes, obviously! Editing now. Cya Fleck

As we have a week to wait, something a bit different to think about. What would your starting 11 be out of anyone who has ever played for us that’s still currently playing. (You can have them in their prime whether that form came before or after their stint with us). I went 4-3-3 GK- K...

Wilson, Moore Dabo, BNC, McNally, Rose, Fadz, Doyle, Bidwell, Wilson-Esbrand Gyok

He is similar in style to Stones. Left footed, ball playing defender. No reason why he couldn’t play for City if he carries on his development (and Pep stays at city)

Think you might want to re-read this thread. Lots of people questioning his ability and a number of people really unhappy about the length of the contract. Still might turn out to be a bad decision. He might be injured for the next 4 years but still worth the risk. If he becomes a solid...

Had a great game yesterday. Still makes me laugh how irrationally angry some people were that he got given a decent contract. The reaction time to take his goal yesterday was hugely impressive

And that’s just from your wife’s account

What a fucking day. All those championship seasons in the 00’s and early 10’s where we dreamt of having the fun that all the promotion chasers were having. This is our time, finally. Whether we get promotion or not, heck whether we even get play offs or not, it’s been an amazing season and...

It does seem as though it’s got worse in the last few years but we all do it, because it works. Waste 10 minutes and get about 4 added on. Something needs to change.

If we finish 6th… I’ve got a mates wedding on the home leg, a gig (work) on the away leg and then in Portugal for the final. Just told my fiancé she’s going to Portugal on her own if we get there. Took it quite well, hopefully might let me back in soon.

Gudmundson led it… it’s the Viking clap… remember Iceland in the euros etc
