    Incredibly harsh on Biamou there. James has got half the pitch to put that ball into. Biamou has lost his man and is in on goal with a better pass

    Kelly has been great defensively again. Very wasteful with his longer forward passing though.

    Wonder how much, if anything, Norwich still owe us for him and how long he has left on his contract there.

    Looks to me like McCallum has bulked up a fair bit over the course of the season too, maybe it's added a few yards to that throw and that's why it's only being used now.

    I didn't say he's playing especially well, but he actually looks like a Rwb today instead of being a marauding maverick on the right wing!

    I like this version of DeCosta a lot more. They look like they've been working with him on defensive discipline. He's much closer to his man today.

    I think Ostigaard has had more touches in midair in this game than with his feet on the floor!

    Today has the feeling of a promotion celebration about it! Rotherham already lost, an early goal, sun shining!

    They've probably altared their formation to accomodate him.

    As for Walker, his movement in the box is excellent, in fact regularly he and Godden have made the same run. And I love a bit of deadpan arrogance in a striker. Score a goal and then turn round and celebrate by pushing your team mates away and bollocking them for not getting you the ball there...

    Can't believe O'Hare has had another row with Robins. That boy needs to control his temper.

    Well judging by this game they'd be bloody awful if they did take their foot off the gas.

    Today’s games

    I think I'd be happy with a draw, would like Birmingham to still be in danger and needing a win when they play Derby next weekend.

    The Gulf (not Persian)

    I think 15th to 18th and clear of a relegation battle would be excellent year on year progress. Far too much work to do on our squad to be expecting much more than that.

    Do you consider us safe?

    And just how tight are your Auntie's margins?

    Next season

    They will miss out on autos now, it was in their hands 3 games ago after an unbeaten 12 game run but they've choked at just the right time and suffered back to back losses for the first time this season.

    Next season

    We could really do with Derby going down and Rotherham staying up. Derby owner talking about Champions League and, although he sounds bonkers, you'd still expect some significant investment there plus they're one of the clubs who will benefit from a decent sized fan base being back.

    Do you consider us safe?

    Sure, my point was just we're still at a stage where one weekend of bad results means we're still right in the relegation mix and under pressure to get a result. And it's that whacky point of the season where form and league placing often goes out the window. I don't think we'll be relegated...

    Transfer Rumour Callum Lang

    We've been very clever with Hamer by making him play shit since January so that we can keep him for the real playoff push next season.

    Do you consider us safe?

    Ah yeah, I'd put Saturday in the first part and then correctly Sunday in the second paragraph! But the point is still the same, so enjoy the rest of your Thursday Mr Pedantic. :P
