Bloody lucky today with the results around us.

Even if Boro win at the weekend and we lose to Luton the last game of the season at the CBS will be the decider

Millwall will need to dramatically sort out their goal difference to catch up.

2 massive games left and the players need to sort themselves out.

They’ve still got a chance.

We are really really making hard work of it.

After today it's gonna take a huge effort this week to get us ready for Luton.

Guess Boro and Bristol will be saying the same today.

Can see a loss at Luton unless we find a bit of fight down the back of the sofa.

Team full of pussies.

Bad move playing Allen for starters.

Said before, he often struggles against big, physical sides and it showed today.

Plymouth won just about every header all game and won most of the 50/50 challenges

Actually think Frank got it wrong with the team selection. Sheaf and DaSilva should have started.

Bristol play Leeds and PNE. They are going to lose to Leeds. So it's 67, 68 or 70 points.
Milwall have in-form Swansea and then Burnley on the last day. I don't think they are going to overtake us and their GD is poor.
Blackburn have Watford and Sheffield Utd. They could technically get to 68 but it seems unlikely.
Borough have Norwich who won't turn up for us. But it means two draws, 68 points, still could be enough.
If we can beat Luton and Borough/Blackburn/Milwall results go our way it could still be a dead rubber except for whether we finish 5th or 6th.

Utter crap. I had a feeling we’d roll over today. It’s the same old dance in these games against the small teams, start off first 15 will all the possession, do NOTHING and then get bullied like a load of pussies, concede awful goals and ruin my weekend.

Hopefully Luton will just let us win Pete; look at how gracious we were at Plymouth today.

Annoying as we were best to every second ball on Friday, or were West Brom that bad

Let's face it, they were all over the midfield and sheaf is hardly the midfield tough guy. Allen is stronger in a 50/50

I'm not confident sadly and we could end up having to beat boro last day if we lose simply because Millwall could catch us too

Before this game it was all in our hands!

After the game, it's STILL all in our hands.

Can we have a lot less negative vibes on here before the Luton game please.
I swear some people were willing a loss.

We’ve got till the last game of the season to be in with a shout. Lucky and the players need to realise that.

Players need to rest and give a proper reaction at Luton.

Write that shit show off, let's never talk of it again.

Although we really got out of jail with other results, I think it also goes to prove how all teams can fail under the pressure or even pull a performance out the hat at any point in this division.

I'd be tempted to give Wilson a go, bigger character and not a bad keeper. He can play it short to Grimes now so kicking isn't that much of an issue.

Incredible comment. Surely they want to go up as champions and get 100 points??

Can’t see Lampard changing the keeper now.

Let’s hope this was a wake up call

We absolutely need to play Wilson last two games. It’s frighteningly obvious. At least he’s got some presence. Luton will be a complete dogfight which could be anything. But I fancy us to beat Boro.

It's the manner of the defeat. People will blow off some steam and then get behind the team on Saturday, let's hope they fucking turn up for us as id really rather not go into the final game absolutely having to win

I actually think today will make preparation easy.
We've had some stinking performances under Lampard but not sure we've had 2 on the spin, not post New year anyway

Think even Burnley wasn't that bad and we may have got something but for Collins.

Just have to do better than Middlesboro next game then all we need is a draw. The only way it’s a must win is if we lose at Luton and they win their game. (I’ve already written off other teams)
