Agreed, if he is off it's negligible, so not worth complaining about.

I’ll admit this is a very pessimistic view, but my feeling is we might just be running out of steam. Players injured and scraping against lower league opposition. I think Middlesbrough and West Brom will find us out.
If we get in the play offs great, but I think we need another window to strengthen to be a truly formidable force in this league.
Afraid I agree with this assessment and I'd be asking questions of the hierarchy personally, injuries apart, don't know what Frank's assessment is or the owner's for that matter, Haji was ambling about. The team was flat and not hungry for it at all.Bit of an odd one tonight. Although I think their keeper was MOTM and made a few really good saves, I also feel like we had a lot of possession without really threatening too. We didn't really have any urgency until they scored, by which time it was too late. We looked good with the ball.... slowly and without urgency. I came away feeling that a draw was probably a fair result, even though we had the lions share of the chances. We certainly didn't strike me as a team champing at the bit to secure a play off spot. We looked a team that could take it or leave it. Almost an attitude of "if we get there, happy days, if we don't, I'll be on the beach 2 weeks earlier". If we can't get ourselves up for a game against a struggling side, to put us 5th and 5 points clear, then what are we doing?

I think the loss of Dovin and now Torp is stretching the team and sapping some morale. Rudoni can’t do it all by himself. The others need to step up. Nevertheless we saw lots of good play from many today, but just lacking the killer instinct to stick it in the back of the net. As I stated before, Hull were there for the taking, but we just didn’t show the ruthless needed to grab 5th place.Afraid I agree with this assessment and I'd be asking questions of the hierarchy personally, injuries apart, don't know what Frank's assessment is or the owner's for that matter, Haji was ambling about.

I think they're resigned to their fate and we're not gonna make it, it's felt to me that Frank hasn't been focused for at least a month, I mean all the fist pumps after sneaking a late goal.

I’m sure many people felt the same back in 22/23 when we drew to Wigan away. There’s this odd duality of having the most difficult games against relegation contenders and if we don’t win, lacking what it takes to be a playoff team.
There’s also little evidence that WBA and Boro have the ruthlessness to overtake us. Whatever we do, they need to beat us by 3 points. Having the two chasing teams in WBA and Boro having to play us away gives us a great opportunity and you probably wouldn’t plan it any other way.
Too much panicking here as per usual. If we beat WBA, we’ll have all but secured a playoff berth going into the final day.
Having WBA and Boro at home is certainly better than having to play them away. Agree that Haji didn’t seem as sharp as he usually is. Maybe Patterson should have come on sooner. Allen definitely deserves a run and I’ll bet we see him on Friday. Lati was decent although he almost scored an own goal. Da Silva was excellent for the most part and I just wonder if more could have been done to stop the shot for their goal. Anyway. at least we got something and we move on.Disappointed to only get a point but that's the way it goes. Haji missed 2 very good chances and seemed at his lackadaisical worst. Thought Simms had a decent game and the keeper made a couple of excellent saves to deny him a goal. Rudoni our best player on the night. Was hoping for 4 points from tonight and Friday but would take a point v The Baggies.

Their GK was excellent. It certainly wasn't a lack of trying. If they didn't get that goal it would have been seen as a great performance by most. But as we only got 1 point it's post mortem time.I think the loss of Dovin and now Torp is stretching the team and sapping some morale. Rudoni can’t do it all by himself. The others need to step up.

Nice to be back from a game in 30 mins!
Thought we played really well tonight and, although it’s disappointing not get the win, we are three points clear of 7th with 4 games left - the bottom two still to play and other play-off contenders at home. We are still in a great position.
The team was flat and not hungry for it at all.
That don’t impress me muchOkay, so you own a helicopter.
Bajcetic Gilmour double pivot
Agree. We should look at getting him in the Summer. Collins hasnt had a shot to save the last two games thats why he looked better but his distribution has been goodThe Hull keeper was quality, jealous they had him in goal and we were stuck with Collins (who tbf hasn’t been too bad last 2 games)
seasons over according to someGood performance last night, probably the best we’ve played since Sunderland which just makes it worse we only got a point but that’s life.
Keeper for them was quality and kept us out.
But we are still three points above 7th and have a chance to be 6 points clear on Friday.
Running out of steam and injuries kinda come together. Performance last night was good, which is why we needed three points from it. I think with the depth we have now, it’s going to be harder to keep that up against higher class opposition.Let's put a bit of reality into it.
Sheffield United beat us a couple of weeks ago. They looked certs for an automatic place. Since then?
Oxford 1-0 Sheffield United
Sheffield United 0-1 Millwall
Plymouth 2-1 Sheffield United
Injuries? Yes. Running out of steam? We deserved a win last night. Their GK was excellent.
WBA find us out? They've won 2 out of the last 8 since the start of March. Yes they might win. But we're at home and playing well. The pressure is on them not us. A draw puts them 3 points away from 6th with 3 games to go. Lose then minimum 4 points away. For us? Lose then we will be GD away from 6th. Draw 6th. Win? If Middlesbrough or Millwall don't win we will be minimum 5 points away from 7th with 3 games to go.
We did play very well.Was best we played in few weeks, finishing apart, but at least we created chances.
another night we win 2/3/4.0
Big opportunity missed, but still in great position. Friday very big…….

Tbf I think West Brom have the form of a bottom half team since Mowbray came in, the points accumulated under Corberan the only reason they are still hanging around.Running out of steam and injuries kinda come together.

From the interview it sounds like Thomas will be back soon
I agree, Lati was fine. Don't think he was tested much though, we controlled most of the game.I do hope so although I thought Lati was fine defensively, albeit against a poor team.
We did miss the goal threat from corners that Thomas gives us.
To be fair we did have two really good chances from corners. I think both were Haji, one was saved and the other missedI do hope so although I thought Lati was fine defensively, albeit against a poor team.

He was lucky with that off the line ball, very fortunate it wasn't two own goals.I agree, Lati was fine. Don't think he was tested much though, we controlled most of the game.
