How on earth have you come to the conclusion that we would be favoritues against a side which have; 1. beaten us twice 2. finished above us comfortably.

Great news for him - I really hope the club give him the send off he deserves on Saturday. Solid player for us and a top bloke. He was outstanding for a year or 2 under Ralph.

We want Leeds and Leciester out of this division next season, so by that very basis (unless Leeds lose tonight), I wouldn't be massively upset with a defeat.. which we will, because we have no bottle. FWIW - Really not impressed with Leciester, they look a pretty average side. What they do have is match winners and fight, as shown Saturday. 2-1 foxes.

I think on balance, Brooks was a decent punt. He's a decent player, I just dont think he's fit enough to come in and make the impact we were expecting him to make. Rothwell, I was expecting him to be a decent, solid addition and in some ways he has been with his goals. However, what fucking idiot signed off sending Charley out on loan (to a clib who is never going to cough up to buy him) and replace him with Rothwell.

For the U18's.... He's talented, one for next year.. not this.

Who’s gonna sign him by the way? If he wants PL, he’s laughing.

Knew we’d lose as soon as the line up came out, back to square pegs in round holes is good old Lego head. made himself look a bit stupid giving it stacks to the Cardiff fans down our place, considering they’ve just ruined our season.. nice one Rus

He’s in the team because we have no better. We needed a striker in the summer and blew our budget on one that was injured and has played about 20 mins all season. how different things might have been if we’d signed Piroe or Stewart was fit…

Looked a nasty one, most likely an ACL. He was off at the end of the season, I wonder if we’ll offer him a new deal given his service (the right thing to do). Although I Wouldn’t be surprised if that was him and he calls it a day

FWIW - Burnley, who pissed the championship last season and will eclipse what will be our final points total, have scored 15 goals at home this season with 2 to play. We're more creative because we're in a significantly weaker leauge.

@franniesTache - what is the 1885 group and are you part of it?

How many goals do you think you'd see us score under Martin if we go up? I would guess it wouldn't be many more than 19. Might be 51 against us though.

was at 8:30 this morning

Get back to bed micky, you're making a fool of yourself.

That just brought a shudder down my spin - Perhaps, given their injuries, they'll line up with a side as ridiculous as we did that day. I reckon a back 4 of Bree Lyanco Perraud Meghoma would struggle in a Sunday leauge side 😂

Back to marker pens and bedsheet's it is

Everyone posts on a #keyboard, you thick fucker.

It'll be a tough one for him to come back from, in my opinon. Hopefully, by the time hes back, we'd have found a replacement who's consistently performing. Horrible injury for him personally but if it forces our hand to replace him, it could be a blessing for us.

Why do they all support Rangers as well?

We're better than all but 4 teams in the leauge - there's absolutely no evidence that we wouldn't have scored more if we played a direct ball into che and had runners off him. Ipswich, as an example, have scored more (all be it only 1 more and have played a game less) and have a pretty direct style.

that's a good point - I'm not convinced the idea of 'drowing out' the away fans will work It'd have been better if they'd moved the away fans to Kingsland North Corner.

Why is that a bad thing? He (lumley) will know the score. He's been brought in to be backup / cover, because he's not good enough to be first choice for a championship side. That hasn't changed.

I wonder if there is a clause of some kind in McCarthy's contract where if he plays x or on the bench of y he gets a balloon payment? I'd say its almost certain that he'll get paid a fee to be on the bench (much like they do an appearance fee) and that fee is likley significantly more than it would be for Lumley. Basically, commericially, its not worth putting him on the bench which has a cost ramification, when its very, very unlikley he'll play

Has to be the same team. Win the game early then rest our important players, much like last night.

Let’s set up a minutes applause on the minute mark against Stoke, to show solidity for Bazunu missing 4 games this season
