Hull... our next opponents at home...
Lost only 4 of last 17 apparently- now 4 pts behind us.... good win vs WBA
....Karl Darlow - signed end of Jan- very good keeper at this level...
Another game some people perceive as being an easy home fixture....
They are a hard, hard working team. Got lucky today tho IMO, the baggies tore them apart but couldn't finish their dinner!

Had a choice of watching Blackburn vs Sheff Utd or Bristol City vs Cardiff. Chose the Brizzle game as with a win, they'd be only 1 point behind us.

It's DIRE !! I genuinely think this game would finish 0-0 if they played till next Christmas. Or if there is a goal, it's from a set piece that went wrong. The football on display is terrible. Long balls to noone, niggling fouls to break up play and when the ball gets close to the goal, the attackers conspire to avoid hitting the target, even giving the ball away on occasions.

Think I picked the wrong game :/

I read this shortly after my Mrs reported from the Cardiff match that, “it’s been a good game so far”.
Tbf it’s a low bar…

Could do with Blackburn losing against Sheff United, but their home record is excellent.

Cardiff 1-0 up.
And as is my luck recently, they scored while I had changed the TV feed back to my PC screen so I could check this site :) And the Sky Red Button doesn't show replays :(

IMHO from here on in there aren't many game that could be forcast with any certainty.Take a look at the fixtures at the weekend only Middlesborough and Burnley would I say are bankers.Very often form goes out the window when your fighting promotion or religation.
I even got 1 of them wrong .Like I say form goes out the window at the end of the season.(dog eats dog)Think WBA v Wigan could be very interesting

Blackpool away can be dodgy, remember they grow up with partying away fans coming down for the game and the bright lights of Blackpool, they are well prepared for a bit of knuckle dragging.

I read an article on Watford - it’s their business model. They don’t believe in longevity for managers. In their eyes they hire managers to reach a specific target in moving forward.

wilder will be expected to get them promoted with a hefty bonus to do so - but either way he won’t be there next year. They’ll let him go for failing or they’ll hire a European manager to move them forward in the prem (that’s the principle anyway)

In a strange way you could argue it's broadly successful

Bottom 3 starting to look a bit locked in in the Championship, even despite QPR's awful form they're 7 points clear. Cardiff & Rotherham picking up results and Blues should do enough. Goal differences of the bottom 3 are significantly worse too.

Warnock’s comments strongly suggest he’s accepted relegation already. Lucky for QPR as they’re in absolute free fall
