We should be pissing this. Somehow we've absolutely bottled It. Talk about letting your opponents off the hook.

Burge should have been coming for the 3rd too I think. That ball has looped in from miles out and he has to know Mason is a short arse and it's dropping into his zone.

Burge just needs to go through the defender and take the ball. Simple stuff and if he gets blocked he wins a free kick.

I don’t want to go on about him but Stockdale does just that and people say he only looks good cos he has nothing to do.
Still think despite getting us playing well Robins dropped a big clanger not bringing in a keeper at the very least on loan in January, especially as O’Brien had this long term injury.

played fantastic at times, buts its very clear the defence don't have any confidence in Burge at all.

Game was in the bag. Front 4 were immense for first 30 before that useless piece of shit pops up with 2 absolute gifts. They’ve not even threatened. I’d drag him and stick Addai on, this can’t continue.

For a while I thought he got too much stick on here.
I was wrong. He started the season well but has been a liability on too many occasions

Not just January. We’ve neglected the position for years and it’s one of the most important on the pitch. We have to hope we’ve done some serious scouting for a decent replacement.

I do wonder where Burge will end up.

After the first cock up he will be rooted to his line for the rest of the game.

It's a massive ask to go there and win. They're unbeaten in 19 in the league and haven't lost at home all season - W11 D9 L0. But that's still not their most impressive stat in my opinion. Their ability to equalise is 100% - they've gone behind in 10 of those 20 home games and come back every single time. That's the kind of team spirit, composure and determination that gets you automatic promotion.
That's 12 times in 21 home games they've gone behind now and equalised. As sickening as it is, it's damn impressive over a season.

League 2 and dropped to the bench midway through the season

burge fucked up yes, but it was only a matter of time anyway, they were all over us getting crosses in at will. And when the crosses arrive in the box they have men unmarked and in space every time

Wasn’t like we were in charge of the game any more , and that burge fuck up was the only thing that let them back in really

I'd take Burge off now, we aren't going to get promoted.

Tell him and his agent to have fun in the Championship and that he is free to go now.

Perhaps Sunderland are signing him

O'Brien is fit now. Played for U23's yesterday but he's had some sort off fall out so is in the bomb squad

Best 30 mins I’ve seen us play in a long time-we were cutting through them like a knife through butter. The Burge apologists can't even blame the forwards for missing chances as they have done the business today. Taxi for Lee I’m afraid-but I’m telling everyone what they already know.

I agree to an extent and always feel we end up too deep in our own penalty area but if those crosses are from the touchline looped into the 6 yard box it really shouldnt matter.

So he’s responsible then.
