Friday if you please.
Friday if you please.There was pushing and shoving from bothe players as you do. Then Diaby just head butted toward Kitching. Kitching shoved him away furiously, the ref took over then as they locked horns. Player at fault: Diaby. Lost his cool. Kitching did respond and perhaps should not have, but red card? No.
On the game I thought we were a bit sloppy and over confident today. Took a while to break down a poor side. Think the changes to the team help create that sloppyness. But we finally put nerves to bed from a brilliant finish. game over. let's not be too over confident and some players looked like there was too much turkey in the belly!
Expect 3 points Saturday provided we do not allow Swansea (a better side than Wednesday) to come and stiffle us. needs Simms and hadji together and Sheaf back hopefully.

Totally professional performance says something when we win 2-0 and we’re all looking for how poor players were or how we should have won by moreThere was pushing and shoving from bothe players as you do.

Based on on our recent performances opposing teams will have to be alert to the goal threat posed by our attacking midfielders, especially O'Hare, Sakamoto and Palmer. I'm hoping this will free up space for Wright, Simms and Godden.

I thought we were excellent at times. Some of the interplay in midfield and on the wings was so good. Went off the boil just before half time and Sheffield had more of the play after half time but we were far superior. I actually thought we were better than at Sunderland where the result flattered us to be honest.Totally professional performance says something when we win 2-0 and we’re all looking for how poor players were or how we should have won by more
Their first sub was a concussion sub.6 subs bought on from Sheff Wed, replaced more than half the team, didn't even know this was allowed
Concussion sub for Paterson was the extra one6 subs bought on from Sheff Wed, replaced more than half the team, didn't even know this was allowed

Was this game officially sold out ? Do season ticket holders who don't attend still count on the day? .
It was 3000 short of full.
Think Saka, Cal and Wright, with MVE and Bidwell overlapping, will cause any Championship side problems - so good to watch. So yes if Simms clicks fantastic, but... Also need i) a dynamic midfielder alongside Sheaf/Eccles for balance ii) injury to Wright and to some extent Tats, replacements are a drop off. If 4231 is our line-up, we need two other hard working attacking wide players.The numbers for Saka, KP, Cal and Wright starting to stack up now.
Simms starting to score the last piece of the jigsaw?
Why would they bring on a concussion sub when the player going off already had a concussion?Their first sub was a concussion sub.
If Swansea chooses to show up on Saturday rather than Friday you'll hear no complaints from meFriday if you please.
The plans were to suggest people turn up early.
TBF it’s pretty obvious to get here early. I got here at 2.15 and took 5 minutes to get in
In other news, fans have been advised they will need to wipe their own arses.
Really good result.
We’ve played better over 90 this season and also a hell of a lot worse. The final two thirds of the first half we were excellent and they couldn’t get near us, they were being forced to play so deep and despite losing were trying to slow things down just to get some respite and take the sting out of our game.
Second half they played higher and with a press at times. Other than hitting the post I didn’t really feel too concerned though - we always looked the likelier team to get the second of the game.
Strong run of results and momentum continues to build.
Excited for Friday.
We were getting punished for these errors in earlier games and are getting away with them now. It does all balance out.Buzzing with the upturn. We are riding our luck though, that miss from them today and Ba for Sunderland.
but I guess it evens out in the end.
Thought so tooIt may have already been discussed but Clive and Oggy (and Martin Winch…who is he?) all said Saka essentially scuffed his first one. Both at the time and having watched it since, I think he knew exactly what he was doing. A really well taken goal.
The second one was a thing of beauty. The old man was even able to appreciate it…”wow”.Thought so too
Second one no doubt about it
It’s so easy isn’t it to score apart from when you don’t
I thought exactly the same. He hit like that to get a bit of whip on it to take it nearer the far post.It may have already been discussed but Clive and Oggy (and Martin Winch…who is he?) all said Saka essentially scuffed his first one.

Maybe he knows that? Maybe it's his technique?He was definitely aiming for that corner, but it was not a clean strike.
