    It’s a shame it’s ended this way…

    It wasn’t even a bad performance either, Lampard hit the nail on the head when he said if the game is replayed, we win almost every time.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It’s a party full of low calibre people. Most of their MPs and cabinet ministers are not working class and are mostly petty bourgeoisie children of working class people. It’s a party that is facing a bigger existential crisis than the Tories imo. The Greens will continue to hoover up...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Rayner or Miliband imo. The latter is popular with Labour members and as you say, Rayner is under investigation for her tax affairs. Rayner is also on record calling on Sunak to call a GE after his coronation as PM… There’s always a tweet! One of the only things keeping Starmer in post for...

    How many points needed for automatic promotion ?

    Yes, I thought we’d edged the game v Ipswich until they scored but in all the games I’d listed, we’d took the lead. Most games away from home, you’ll struggle to lose if you concede first. The fact that in the last 7 away games, we’ve took the lead in 5 games and only come out with 3 points is...

    How many points needed for automatic promotion ?

    If we don’t get to 10 points away from home, we don’t deserve to go up. December and Jan, there were some tough away games but we’ve threw away leads and it’s not good enough. There’s no way that we should’ve surrendered a winning position at PNE, Charlton, Norwich and QPR in the circumstances...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Starmer is a dead man walking. If McSweeney had to resign over Mandelson, why should Starmer remain? The buck stops with the PM, not his chief of staff. Weak leader, weak man.

    Clean Sheet

    On the ball he was a bit too cautious imo and had some sloppy moments. Defensively, Oxford weren’t a threat to meaningfully rate Lati and Wolfenden. On average one hand, you shouldn’t change a CB partnership on the back of a clean sheet but on the other, don’t be lulled into a sense of false...

    It’s a shame it’s ended this way…

    If we don’t beat a beleaguered WBA away, I’ll start to really worry. I’m optimistic we’ll beat Boro and think the performance v Oxford was good enough to win that tie 9/10. They got the result they played for from the get go and fair to play to them. The fans are getting tetchy and some of our...

    Transfer Rumour Romain Esse

    To that end, we also missed the physicality that EMC brings to the table here too. Esse will split opinions because he will do a stupid trick pass that looks stupid but he also seems to nutmeg a defender every other game. Once he matures his game, he’ll be a fine player.

    Transfer Rumour Romain Esse

    That is also true of most players in the team. Assists and xA is one of the few stats that justifies his inclusion. I thought he was one of the better players yesterday and should’ve scored and had an assist.

    This is a melodramatic thread.

    Doug

    Neither are Boro, Millwall or Hull. Either way, the underlying data still has us as the second best team in the league. We’ve actually retreated to what xG table indicated as we’re now more or less what the xG table predicts. There’s enough about this team to get promoted, we just need to sort...

    Transfer Rumour Romain Esse

    Not everything he did came off, but we looked less likely to create something when he came off. We had 24 shots on Saturday and 3 big chances missed (again). We can moan all we like about tactics and personnel but the chances to win the game was there. Esse missed one big chance and so did Haji...

    On a positive note…

    Will put my hands up and say I jumped the gun on that one. I’m still pretty relaxed about things. I’ll be mildly disappointed if we don’t win the league but as long as we get autos, I’m not bothered.

    anyone else a Bluenose……

    Birmingham are at home so I back them to win to be honest.
