97% probability of promotion and I'm still shitting it.

I have such imposter syndrome at the moment. Constantly getting comments from people who don't even watch Championship football, many of whom keep talking about us being Premier League next season.

I find myself just playing it down every time. I think we've had so much shit it is hard to properly believe what's going on at the moment.

And despite that everyone assuming we’re all arrogant

There is a lot of arrogance on here Pete.
Not everyone's as humble as me and you.

Adopting the @TomRad85 approach, everyone can fuck off. What a time to be alive!

Really hope he's going to the Birmingham game next month.

Even if you do say so yourself...

It isn't arrogance from most. It's reality.

Out of our biggest rivals we're clear of Southampton who need to win and quarter of their remaining games and at the same time us lose them 7 games. Ipswich are playing like a bunch of strangers. We've won away at the teams in 2nd, 3rd and 4th. We're scoring for fun and have the second best defence.

If it wasn't us but another club that had only dropped 11 points from the first 18 games, a GD higher than any other team has even scored goals, no rival within touching distance and only 2 clubs in the top half that have won 3 out of their last 5 games when we've won 11 of our last 12 games you would say they're looking favourites to go up as champions.

They're insufferable. I can see them ending up like Sheff Wed and Portsmouth wih a bit of luck

 

[Macca1987]

Was out with workmates for a xmas drink or two last night.
Two are blue noses, one was so misguided he even believed that they would finish 2nd this year, and the other one really believes a 62,000 seater stadium is being built in Birmingham for them, really enjoyed taking the piss out of the pair of deluded chaps

I feel like Shitehead are too wealthy for that to happen even though i wish it more than anything. Even if i still don't fully believe all their bollocks, at worst they are tidying Blues up in a way that makes them more attractive to future buyers.

Is 2nd spot really out of the question? If they fix their away form they will be a strong challenger.

Maybe it’s just my American xenophobia shining through but, assuming they do actually build the stadium, I only see this being leased to the club for a potentially crippling rent. Not a cat in hell’s chance any of the ‘sports quarter’ revenue makes it off Knighthead’s books (unless sold).

 

[wingy]

The only reason they came up with that announcement was to give them a gee up,who knows it it will work

If they do build a stadium that big they won't even half fill it.

A draw in tonight game would be ideal

That or a Hull win tbh

Hull win for me, keep the bucket of crabs below us bubbling.

Another 3000 allocation

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Hull v Boro delayed ko until 8.15. Looks very wet! Hopefully a Hull win, or a draw.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Boro leading

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Really poor defending from Hull

 

[Captain Dart]

Boro leading

Good finish that.

Why would you bench a supposed £20M CB ?
Maybe he's not the dogs do das after all

He's coming back from an injury

He might not be fully fit?

Never understand why a supposed "best" defender at a club doesn't go straight back into the side

 

[procdoc]

Because he’s not fully fit. Rudoni is considered our best player and was on the bench after an injury layoff

He was touch and go for the Stoke game and i think he was on the bench for that . Begs the question if not fit again why is he on the bench ? Rudoni got some minutes .

Yes hes making no sense.

He’s just not fit enough to start, why is this so difficult for you to understand
