They weren't shit, they played for what they got; a tight game and then hope for something on the break.

That's a fucking awful way to lose a game. Poor performance generally, Wright and Sheaf awful, set pieces awful. This is far from over, but we're going to have to be a fuck ton better than that.

Exactly, their game-plan is to sit in and try and hit us on the break; they're doing it well, but we're not playing badly. So far, it's been quite a typical play-off first leg.

I think all this goes out of the window in games like these. We've enough to beat them, but they've enough to beat us, too. I'm feeling neither confident nor pessimistic about this tie. ETA: more aimed at the post you quoted rather than yours.

True!

Well, yeah, see also the Sunderland fan that's dribbled all over the board in the last couple of days. Still not worth getting angry about, though.

Was just going to say that no-one will ever top Abba when it comes to crafting a perfect pure-pop tune. That Madonna track up there references them heavily. Take a Chance is the one for me. For something more modern, Poker Face is a glorious slab of dirty electro pop.

Not worth getting angry about, tbh.

Couple of games against a team that finished above us in the league before starting to worry about Sheffield United at Wembley.

No, he's just a bit cheesy.

Interesting fact, but bubonic plague, intestinal worms and ebola were all first documented in the Sunderland area.

None of the team or management are thinking that.

Surely a more pessimistic man sees them battering Sunderland in the final?

When the playoffs first started it was three going for promotion and one fighting off relegation. Chelsea ended up getting relegated in them.

We celebrate every win like that. It wasn't that long ago many of us genuinely wondered how long we'd have a club to support for. Yes, there are. The lowest you've been is promotion challengers in League One. Get a sense of perspective, and drop the whiny sense of entitlement. Even if you do...

This is a very strange post. Some of those are / were reasonable things to raise. Or were in ways they would have been phrased, rather than the exaggerated way you have couched them to try and make a point. I don't think anyone has said the high line is 'killing us', for example, but some have...

I am also not reading much into their poor form, or their poor record against us. They finished fourth for a reason. It will be hard.

I've always quite liked Plymouth. I have absolutely nothing against Luton. I didn't care who went down, but was quite pleased Oxford stayed up. I like clubs that punch above their weight (we also had two extremely exciting games against them).

He did say that, which would negate my criticism of him last week for persisting with Collins up to now.
