That is one of the biggest frustrations about the 2 defeats this week. Sunderland look there for the taking in the play offs so 5th really is a big prize. Sheffield United in a one off game at Wembley would then be a better proposition than in a 2 leg game with the decider at Bramall Lane. If...

We were far too pedestrian in our build up, constantly working the ball wide ready to get a cross in, but instead turning back retaining possession, but allowing the Plymouth defenders time to get themselves organised, meaning that the eventual attempt to play a ball into the box was from no...

They would probably have made a better fist of it, but they would have still gone down. The gulf between the bottom 3 and the rest is far too big this season.

Sheffield United just got beat by Plymouth so do they have no business being in the play offs? Equally Derby did the double over us despite being pants, yet we are still in a play off position! If we lose to Plymouth or Luton but still end up in the play offs then we will have every right being...

I thought he looked offside, but was certainly a close call.

That's nonsense, Rudoni is nothing like Hamer. He's not particularly like O'Hare either but the position he plays is far more similar to where O'Hare played than Hamer.

I keep seeing this churned out by his boo boys, but where to? If we get promoted I guess a Championship loan, but there is no chance he would go on loan any level below that. If we don't get promoted do we risk him tearing it up at another Championship club, particularly if we stick with Simms...

You're obsession with Bassette seems slightly unhinged, particularly on a day we should surely should be celebrating the positives. I think if anything he is trying too hard, and that the 5 minute cameos he's getting aren't doing him any favours to that end. His performances against Sheffield...

I suspect there's going to be some serious interest in him from PL clubs in the Summer, which would be a real bummer. Hopefully we will be a PL club ourselves though, so we get to enjoy him playing for us beyond one season.

Must be a tribute to the Baseball Ground!

I appreciate you're a fan of his, but Dasilva's qualities lie more in being in possession rather than out of possession, and if you don't think our opponents target him as a defensive weak link you are living in la la land. In the first half particularly, Hull constantly switched the play...

Fellows looks to be their main danger and given how Hull targeted Dasilva I would expect West Brom to favour much the same tactic. Apart from for the goal, Dasilva dealt quite well overall, but Fellows looks a much better player than he faced last night. Judging from their goals against Watford...

Hate is a strong word, but your posts about him always seem to have a bitter twinge to them. To be fair I'm not sure I would sign him if we got promoted either, but that would depend on what alternatives are available.

If we do get to penalties in the play offs I would be very surprised if Bassette isn't on the pitch by the end of extra time, given his shoot out winner against Sheffield Wednesday earlier in the season.

With Eccles and now Torp injured we are slowly losing our first choice penalty takers should that fate befall us again!

It took him a while but by the end Hamer had cut out the silly bookings. Even so its a bit of a stretch to claim he was suspended for a quarter of the season.

Didn't like Tim Sherwood suggesting PL sides should be looking at him as a 'cheap' signing in the Summer.

Yes this is correct. Jim Blyth was the injured keeper. Kirkland was the other way round when Strachan refused to bring him on despite Hedman being barely able to stand up and pleading to be substituted. It was against Middlesborough who played crap but nevertheless scored a winner by Dean...

As long as they choose a half decent manager I would expect Southampton to be challenging for promotion next season. The same also with Ipswich who have a squad now full with top end Championship players. I hope Leicester might be the one that struggles, with a combination of a possible points...

70 points should do it, so 11 more points. With 69 points I suspect we might lose out on goal difference.
