I only watched the 1st half of the Boro game and was worst finishing I have seen in any division since we were in league 2. If that doesn’t improve they will drop off

Love the Derby fans ripping into Brum

 

[covcity4life]

I think our fans overrated them when they beat us .. we were the better side and should have been 2 up at HT .. football doesnt work that way but i think boro are a better side

Agreed. It seems to be the cool thing to take piss out of Boro at the moment on here though

Think soton defo have a chance tho of course. But playoffs will likely be evenly contested in both semis this year

I was 14 before a calculator became a thing.
We used log books.
SOHCAHTOA

And possibly had the benefit of it in terms of true learning, to me at least.

Southampton do seem to have a lot of momentum though.
Having said that, Sunderland had no momentum last season and still won

That's natural. To take the piss out of a team you'd have to have beaten them in all recent encounters as otherwise there would always be the chance of that jibe coming back at you. We'd therefore expect the same from Bristol City.

Boro fit that example for Cov. Expect Ipswich to therefore take the piss out of you and us to take the piss out of Brum, Saints and hopefully Ipswich/Millwall come the season end.

Last one I promise

why would Ipswich take the piss out of us when we are champions

Isn't it obvious,it is to me,but they can suck my thumb.

not really. unless i’m missing something?

Because they shag tractors and don't know any better

Sunderland will likely finish below Newcastle this year, but i think they'll be making noise about this season's results for a while to come.

Because they've beaten you in every encounter. For some reason head to heads matter more to the fan taking the piss than any league standing? Illogical perhaps as it's a much smaller set of results, but perhaps it has to do with the fact that those are the games that they'll have watched the opposing fan's team much more closely?

As an example, us losing to Pompey, despite them having a bit of a rep as giant killers, was far more humbling than losing to you when you're at the top of the league and they're around the bottom, but of course your fans will focus on the games between us as that's when most of them have likely seen us play the most. Ipswich will have watched you most in your encounters with them and will therefore take the piss out of you with those encounters in mind above all else.

We did the same to Sunderland despite them being Prem and us Championship at the time, when we beat them in 2 separate cup matches and a friendly for good measure.

Well it’s a bit different when you’re both mid table.

If we go up and Ipswich don’t are they really going to pipe up?

I'm confident Portsmouth will take points out of Ipswich,if that's any good.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I’m going to be furious when Blues fans brag about beating us at their place when we are crowned champions.

I think it's fair to say a lot of football fans have no shame or humility, especially on social media, so I would say yes they probably would.

Yeah but I'm just down on them overall,so individual performances don't have the same effect.

Still slightly odd in my opinion.

The user trying to compare Cov and ipswich with Sunderland and Newcastle was also pretty funny
