He was the one driving us forward
That’s how you get fit
He’s the captain
Why take him off

He wasn't driving us forward after an hour, he was a liability
That's not a dig at Sheaf, he was great for an hour but he's been out for a long time and he'd put a shift in.
And you don't get fit by over doing it. He should have been taken off. You're literally the only one who can't see it.

Only 1 stat matters and were shit at making that one.

Which isn’t to do with effort or desire. Which is my point. Anyone with eyes could see they were all grafting to try and score. We were just lacking the quality and composure to do so and came up against a good keeper.

Explain how in any world the goal was a Collins error?
Click to expand...
Every reason to question it;

Starting position.

Higher up - sweeps up and clears. No reason for him not to be able to do that.
(As with Dasilva) He wasn't awake - anticipating a long ball.
The ball bounced on the corner of the D and 18yard box

Watch it back.

Could have gone into WBA with the pressure off and teams like Middlesbrough knowing they needed 3 points to keep up. WBA now come knowing they can stifle us and try to catch us on the break, a draw is a good result for them now, and the others will be breathing down our necks.

I don’t believe a draw will be good for them - Will suit us more.

He was fucked and making mistakes more and more. It didn't help that he got wiped out when we should have had a pen.

You say that but I have it on good authority that based on what Saddles posted Hull changed their game plan.
A Hull ITK posted it on their forum and one of Lampards lurkers reported it back to him and we have completely changed our team.
No doubt this post will be picked up on in their camp and a new gameplan hatched, watch this space.

I hope that post I made looks foolish Friday evening but the pressure is on us now, just hope we don't crumble.

We did little wrong defensively imo. Their goal was a cruel deflection. Our 'failing' was not being ruthless enough. Some of our interplay was top notch.

Who? I think mve, kitchin and Thomas are capable of winning playoffs, the left back is the issue and unfortunately that's where we concede so many of our goals from.

People having a go about Simms but many crosses went in area for Sakamoto to attack but he looks like a kid trying to compete. He played a negative part in their goal too, nice lad but not good enough recently.

They were begging to be put to the sword, but we just lacked that 1 final touch in many cases and their keeper played a blinder.

To be honest if people aren't confident about us playing West Brom then there isn't much point in having play off ambitions

Anyway we will face west brom Friday and they will do us, they will get by da Silva pull it back and we know how shit were when the ball gets cut back.

Points dropped tonight and honestly I don't want us in playoffs I can't deal with another wembley loss, rather just stay down rebuild and win the league.

Not Kitching for me. Certainly not with Thomas. MvE definitely. Dovin probably. Thomas possibly. Everyone else needs an upgrade next season IMO.
