Agreed, Kitching was solid.
I don’t agree with this passing the armband around which has happened a bit lately. Make Kitching captain on Saturday and get the whole team wound up and primed to put in the 90 mins of their lives.
I could be wrong but was it the case in the past that if you appealed and it was deemed frivolous than an extra match was added? Lampard seemed to accept it in his post-match interview so likely no appeal. I’m pretty concerned about Bidwell, however - form has dropped off a cliff and he was off...
No way Sheff U will want to lose that and then play Blackburn in the play-offs. Helped us putting that good performance in at Boro on the final day before beating them in the play-offs.
Another inexplicable error from Collins, totally unnecessary, but Binks has to stop that shot. Didn't really have any pace and straight at him. Pathetic all round, that passage of play. Don't think the team bottled it, we expected a tough game and they got that - the rest of the team cannot...
Course it does! If we lose and Boro win, they would only need a draw next week. A point now and a draw would be enough for us should they win today. Plus it could be enough to secure a play-off place today should results go our way.
He did touch him but completely accidentally, didn't break stride. Not only a red but a three-match ban unless overturned.
Edit: just said one match on CWR.
