Have left a message. £50 to the season ticket fund please. When I have seen the payment has been made I will add another £50 to our own very good cause.

Good performance in general, but its small margins....

Middlesborough were on top when we scored and could easily have been up a half time.

Game could so easily have gone either way.

Pleased to be playing Sunderland, but really we need to take them apart on friday..... no matter how shit they are playing at the moment, we don't want to be going up there without a lead.

Dare to dream boys , Sunderland are in a terrible run of form . Not sure if they have been resting players , if we are a bit more clinical we will have great chance of getting to Wembley

I thought Grimes was sensational as well, he is fantastic at laying the ball off when it bounces up awkwardly.

Saka also traps the ball very well. Simms on the other hand has a terrible first touch.

We will do well to hold on to him this summer, especially if we dont go up. When you see the money thrown about on absolute gash in the premier, someone will take a punt with a 30m I wouldn't be surprised.

No team wants to go into the playoffs having lost 5 in a row.

He’s too slack. Collins and Thomas suffer from it too but he’s the worst of the three. If you think our defence has been good enough this year conceding more than Derby then I’m afraid it’s you talking young horses.

That is awful defending by their CB.

Maybe just dazzled by Rudi's brilliance and wanted a front row view of another goal.

To think that, a few months ago, many folk on this forum wanted Ruud van Nistelrooy as our manager rather than FL

I must also confess that I was in the “give Mark Robins more time” camp because I loved him for all that he did in turning our club around. To be honest I always will but looking back I thinks it’s clear that it was time for a change.

Rudoni MOTM for me closely followed by Tats who terrorised them the whole game.

Special mention to Wilson who stepped up when needed today. He might not have the ball control with his feet like Collins, but one massive bonus was I didn't shit myself every time that the ball came near him. I'm happy for him to hoof it up the pitch instead of trying to play from the back. Glad Lampard finally made the call.

Good to see BTA given another chance. I know a fair few don't fancy him in the side but his pace causes panic. Great run and pass for the 2nd.

Rudoni.....you know we love you. Let's stay together and see where the journey takes us.

How many have we conceded since grimes came in out of curiosity

Too easy to just blame the back line for goals shipped when keepers etc are having howlers often

It's because our legendary manager lost his mind towards the end and decided Lati () and Binks () were our best options.

I thought Saka was immense today. Back to his old self with his ball control, crossing and general trickery.

He also worked hard defensively when he tracked back. Without that I don’t think we could have allowed MVE to take throw-ins far upfield on the left.
