I wasn’t impressed at all by them to be honest. Top flight opposition won’t put the ball in the net for you twice a game.

Tbf they ain't in top flight right now so it doesn't matter.

They win so many headers and second balls. They swarm the ball carrier . Can see why they don't concede much

We have generally made enough mistakes this season to last 4 seasons.. it has really held us back

We didn't lose it by the gifts we gave. We lost by not creating enough. Wright had no real joy down the middle and should have been wide left second half. EMC had lots of opportunity there but did little each time, whereas Wright would have been more effective.
A draw would have been fair but when you make a cock up like we did against a team looking to win you give them every reason to play the dark arts, waste time, defend ruthlessly, which they do well.
Not overly disappointed because we were pretty good overall. Easier games to come and results going our way again today.

Yeah there's different ways of of winning football games, that's just the 12 goal they have conceded this season. Not everyone has to play like man city.

Don't think it will be anyone other than 3rd place that will win play offs this year

Why wouldn't they with refs like that?

Same as Sheffield United with Campbell throwing elbows. They get away with it because the refs are spineless, ratty little cunts.

We created a fair bit and got into good positions. They’ve ultimately needed Collins to win the game.

We will see how Scott Parker does without the parachute advantage.

Well, after that, my thoughts are, if we get Sunderland and then Burnley in the final, then we are up.

To be honest I'm reasonably happy with 3 points from those last 3 games, especially given how other results have gone.

That was my instinct. He came when he didn't need to and Kitching then didn't know what to do.

We deserved something out of that. We played well for the most part, caused them problems.

Unfortunately, we caused ourselves problems too. And it cost us the game.

Burnley, honestly rotten, horrible team. Horrible football, boring really. Ref fell for every single trick they had. I think we know who he had his money on today.

Quite clearly a WBA fan and needed the Burnley win today.

Like I said it doesn't matter

Could be his 3rd promotion from championship even thought with strong teams.

Got to show some respect

Lampard gets punished. Ref gets to keep doing it.

So, Lampard gets a straight red for telling the ref what he thought of his performance.

That Hannibal dickhead should have had two yellows in about a minute for dissent, only gets one.

Sums it up really.

God almighty you talk shite. We did lose by the goals we gave away given that we were winning after 5 minutes.

But that's the thing; they have nothing like the talent of Leeds or even Sheffield United, so they play like that.

I mean it works, but god it's hard to watch.

He has been outclassed in the top flight every time. Just like other advocates of the possession based stuff.

Yep. Concede two goals at home, most of the time you’re going to lose the game. It’s pretty clear where the problems lie.

If Watford win later they will only be 3 points off playoffs, gives them something to play for

It's on Collins. Whenever a GK comes out of the box he's into the defenders area. It's on him and he knew it

It’s hard to win games when you play with 10 men against 12. That referee should be sacked, worst I’ve ever seen. And I never want to see Collins ever again.
