Don't know what you are seeing, but I saw a vicious, hard yank to the floor and a clear penalty.

Borderline GBH.

A lot of our fans really don’t like him for some bizarre reason. There are a couple on here are pretty gleeful every time Stoke have a bad result as it means they can stick the boot in some more.

“She’s ugly anyway” syndrome.

If Ipswich carry on their current home and away PPG they're on course for 83 points.
They need to put something special together

And if they do, they may well derail Boro and Millwall in the process. Win tonight, and the margin for error (to quote Benjamin Bloom) increases substantially. Like others have said, the Saints and Swansea games are potential banana skins, yet if we win tonight, not potentially fatal.

I'm hoping the EFL take a retrospective look at the incident and take appropriate action. The lad could have died.

I didn't see any Americans involved.

 

[shmmeee]

We're now up to joint second in the goals conceded table. Not bad for a team with defenders that "can't defend".

Best tell Lampard he got the last five games all wrong then.

Still on life support I hear and could lose the ability to speak and be unable to ever ride a bicycle again.

Just spoken to the hospital, Kiper suffered serious injury he came round still thinking he plays for the baggies, apparently asked to speak to Mogga

I enjoyed the Ipswich fans meltdown on the weekend but last nights one is even better.

The players faces when the penalty was awarded were brilliant.
Like toddlers having a tantrum.

Hopeful all the dubious decisions they've benefitted from now start to even out as the old adage goes.

Blades forum has a five page thread on them still making the playoffs. Another delusional fan base who think they are a big club despite winning fa in over 100 years

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

My view hasn't really changed to be honest. Not least of all because Millwall aren't showing signs of slowing down.

We still need to win at least 5 out of the remaining 10 which we're more than capable of but nothing is a given regardless of likelihood.

This final stretch of 10 games is a pressure cooker where predicting results becomes nigh on impossible and as often happens one of the 4 chasing autos is probably going to drop off quite significantly.

We're in a great position, but once again, we just need to make sure it's not us!

We’re projected to hit around Millwall’s max points so it’d be great if they beat Ipswich and Boro back to back.

They’re not going to hit 95 points and we’re most likely to hit 94-96 points atm. That’s only giving us 7 points away from home which imo is a low ball, but 14-15 home form may be a little bit too high.

This whole ‘there’s a long way to go’ take is a rather low resolution take. We’re in command and the games are running out for teams to catch us up. Won the last 3 away games and we’ve dropped 2 points from 15 in 2026. Under Lampard, we’ve lost 3 home games in 32 and we have 6 home games remaining.

There’s a reason the odds give us a 95%+ chance of automatic promotion. Boro are our main rival and frankly, if they lose v Millwall and Ipswich their chances to finish above us collapse to more or less 0%. Millwall beat Ipswich and they also can’t really finish above us.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Milwall on a great run esp as they looked poor tonight.

That won’t last but if they can take points from Ipswich and Boro, that’ll do.

I'll be completely honest with you if you want to talk percentages I 100% find you quite boring so I can't particularly be bothered to read this.

It's the same tripe you keep on regurgitating.

I know , we even managed to not concede when joel went off , mental

Thankfully, facts don’t care about your feelings…

Our style of play was always the biggest factor in how many goals we conceded , not defensive ability .

I agree with you btw

A nice dodgy pen for us would be great: we are still owed a few decisions

That’s an interesting thing to think through

Its also the same tripe people were saying immediately before our bad run in December/Jan when our "unassailable lead" effectively disappeared.

Its less likely to happen again with our more favourable fixtures, but its not out of the question.

All this talk of "meltdowns" on other forums.... short memories

 

[robbiethemole]

So, to recap…… we’ve only lost once at home this season, only lost six all season, that works out at one loss every six games. That works out to one/two more losses in the next ten. Since September, we’ve been off the top for SIX days, due to a Borolona surge, which we’ve then gone on to nullify with this win streak. We have more home games than away left.
OH, and Ipswich need more than draws!! Hahaha
I’ve only done this to convince myself we are doing this, it just feels so alien for us to be flying at the top!

Ok fair enough it's a deal, then we'll also take the 12 points + we lost from stonewall denied pens.
