    Got to defend better than that. We let Birmingham get to the edge of our box in 3 unchallenged passes there. Fadz has won everything but we're quite deep and it's asking a lot of Liam Kelly to keep up with Bellingham, half his age, when the space in midfield is so stretched,

    Playing well in moments but we're really struggling to get the ball into midfield when they press our defence. Ending up playing a lot of long ball as a result.

    At least Deeney is not in the squad, couldn't stomach him playing or scoring on top of the nerves.

    Blackpool v Millwall

    Blackpool are effectively relegated if they lose, you'd think they will be fighting for their lives.

    I’m starting to believe

    I see it as a free hit. Didn’t expect to be here in the summer, didn’t expect to be here when O’Hare got injured, didn’t expect to be here when the pitch bullshit happened, didn’t expect to be here when we were bottom after 10 games, didn’t expect to be here when we signed Maguire in January...

    CBS Stand naming

    I’d have one novelty stand that changes its name every week. Could be the Yakubu stand one week, where no-one can move for the whole game. Then the week after the Leon Clarke stand where you force a move every 5 minutes. Orange Ken stand where you sit where you have no right to be. There’s loads...

    Would robins Be our greatest ever manager if we were promoted

    The only way I could see him influencing English football now is if he got us promoted to the PL and other chairman looked at how long he's been in charge for and started giving managers longer than 6-18 months to build something. Don't think that's ever going to happen though with the money at...

    Liam Kelly -humble pie time

    Yeah, and I know it's romantic, nostalgic nonsense but with the nature of the modern game, these stories are increasingly rare.

    Liam Kelly -humble pie time

    Jokes aside, I think we'll end up giving him another year with a coaching role if a) he stays fit between now and the end of the season, b) we stay in this division and c) He's ok with not playing every week. I would absolutely love to have him make an appearance in the PL though so we can say...

    5 Wins and we are in the Prem

    I do think it would be extraordinary yeah. Millwall have lost to Huddersfield, Hull, Birmingham and Wigan in their last 7 games. Blackburn have to play 2 of the top 3 in Burnley and Luton, plus Millwall. Albion will finish 5th I think, with us in 6th

    Liam Kelly -humble pie time

    I can’t wait to see him chasing De Bruyne’s shadow around the CBS first game of next season. 😁

    5 Wins and we are in the Prem

    If we beat Blues it’s as good as done. It would take something extraordinary from not 1 but 2 of the teams around us for us to get pushed out. Millwall are all over the place, Blackburn have taken 7 points from their last 8 games. Sunderland can’t afford to even draw one of their remaining...

    5 Wins and we are in the Prem

    You’re not factoring in the games that those teams play against each other. West Brom Sunderland today. Milwall Blackburn last game of the season. And some other very tough fixtures in between.

    We'll be finishing this match later than Preston Blackburn at this rate.

    He's missed a couple of great chances today but that seems a bit extreme.

    You just know that this will be the first game of the season where the injury time is added on correctly :)
