That's bollocks, it's the usual standard. What is true is that two of the relegated teams are shit, which isn't often the case, and this has made it more open (and better).

I think the point is that this is the manager's general preference, and not a reflection on the quality of our defensive players. This squad is capable of playing defensively.

There is no hoodoo. We've just got the better of you in the last few games because, for the most part, we've played better than you in them. Prior to the play offs, our modern record against you was nothing to write home about, and you did the double over us the season before. If both teams...

I think MvE's a very good defender, but he's a very good defender who is asked to play in a very attacking way (which he is also extremely good at). He's had a bit of a wobble in form recently, probably due to the sheer amount of work we ask of him, but he's one of the division's top players,

I don't think you have to pretend it's nothing to see how entitled it's made elements of their fanbase, and to mock them for that.

They won a Premier League, don't you know!

Not just that, but we are often guilty of giving it away very cheaply, either in advanced areas and getting caught on the break, or with poor, risky clearances. Millwall played very well last night, but the majority of the danger they posed was the result of lackadaisical play from us. The...

Not really. Our record against them since returning to the Championship has been poor, but for a lot of that time, they have been a yo-yo team. I.e., their resources have been vastly greater than ours and so they've usually had a better team than us. You wouldn't expect a great record.

I can't explain myself.

If he's what we need in our team, and gets us promoted, he is priceless.

I don't care if he's good enough for Brentford in the Premier League, I care if he's good enough to get us over the line in the Championship. If he is, then he's worth whatever we pay for him.

Someone posted a video recently. Basically it's because he generally roots for the underdog, watched a couple of exciting cup games we were involved in, and we have one of his favourite players. All normal reasons; welcome to the SBA. You still shouldn't need a fifteen minute video to tell us...

Yes, Lampard wants to play a high-risk-high-reward game. As the games at Luton last year and Southampton this show, these players are solid in a low block.

Wouldn't knock them for that; they've never had massive support, it's a Tuesday night and ages since the last payday. Always prefer to applaud those that make the effort rather than castigate those that don't. They're in no position to criticise over supporter songs, though. The frankly awful...

Don't think any of our centre-halves are particularly 'hard'. Thomas is a top-end Championship centre-half, and Kitching is a very good one. Lati is limited, but puts his body on the line. Woolfenden hasn't really shown anything yet. Our defence isn't our strength, but that's mainly due to...

Still think the lino makes a mistake there, though the whistle had gone before Wright hit it.

Score was harsh on them. We were better than them, but scored our second when they were on top, and then could take them as they threw caution to the wind.

Well, he's not match fit.

It was obvious, don't worry.

I thought it was a goal; he was clearly offside, but made no attempt to play it. The counter is that he's in the defender's mind. I thought we were unlucky, but those are hard calls and don't really have complaints.
