A Plymouth win without doubt
It's a bit of a quandary about Middlesbrough's game on Friday. They play Plymouth and I am not sure what to wish for
I was hoping that Plymouth would have been all but down by the time we played them, but we could do without a Middlesbrough win, really.
A draw be the best outcome maybe? I think that would probably be best, because that ensures Boro stay behind us and Plymouth may just be cut adrift slightly again if the likes of Derby and Hull win. Plymouth could be 5 points behind with just 3 games to go.
If Plymouth won at Middlesbrough, I think they would then really fancy their chances against us on the Monday.
What does everyone reckon?

I know your in-laws like to gaslight you a bit. In fact i know what fans of other Midlands clubs are like when talking about Cov in general, but these are the stats i found from their home win against a very mediocre Watford side, which was also their first win in 6.
I don't really like playing West Brom based on historical results and the injury situation isn't great, but lets not fluff them up to be something they aren't. Bet the fans who wanted Corberan gone feel stupid right now thats for sure.

Corberan was the best manager in the league imo.When Corberan left, I’m pretty sure that I posted that they’d drop out the playoffs. I don’t mean to disrespect Mowbray but he really isn’t anywhere up to that standard and Corberan had them punching above their weight.

But he gets no help from the people in front of him.
Just need to avoid defeat against Baggies on Friday and I don't they are beating us at the CBS
We beat them a few seasons ago. Our record home and away against them is dreadful though.swear I only remember them beating us at the cbs
Won 4We beat them a few seasons ago. Our record home and away against them is dreadful though.
To be honest if people aren't confident about us playing West Brom then there isn't much point in having play off ambitions
he was better, but position wise he switches off too often. they all got dragged over to the right for the goal, but there was far too much space behind him. He's not a defender and too often gets exposed.Da Silva was very good tonight, ridiculous comment

Mowbray got Sunderland to the play offs in his last season there.
Very late Gyokeres penalty if I recallWe beat them a few seasons ago. Our record home and away against them is dreadful though.
I think that Hull had a lot to do with that - they really didn't take the impetus which must have been frustrating for their fans to see.One thing that was very impressive last night, was after Hull equalised.
Quite often we then end up with our backs to the wall in games following an equaliser, with the opposition pushing for a winner, but we got straight back on it last night and pushed even harder still for the winner ourselves.
Great to see.
If we beat Baggies and Middlesborough lose to Plymouth then we go six points clearIf we lose to Baggies and Middlesbrough beat Plymouth, they both go above us on gd!
You're forgetting about Millwall, same points as WBA and BoroIf we beat Baggies and Middlesborough lose to Plymouth then we go six points clear
This place is funny at times.
Before the game....Crap 1st team. Bench awful.
After the game.....should have won. Strikers fault against a side that had only had 7 goals conceded in last 10 games.
Reality... ..away game 1.point. WBA at home next. Just a draw guarantees top 6.
We we're unlucky but that's football for you.
Even 2 wins in general isn't terrible. Would mean 2 sides need at least 9 points from 4 games to catch us.If we could win two games of those remaining the two home ones are worth basically twice the others.
Agree with this, but it was not offside. There was actually a line across the pitch where the grass had been cut that proves it.I thought we were good last night. Hull’s goal was offside, and even the Kasey Palmer chance in the 1st half (their only chance in the first half) should have never been, as Sheaf was taken out seconds before.
Simms led the line well, and Wright although far from his best, still looked dangerous. Both could of have had a brace.
That Grimes-Sheaf-Rudoni midfield 3 were running rings round Hull for most of the match.
Felt sorry for Dasilva, as he was probably slightly culpable for their equalizer. He’s really stepped up recently. Won all his duels against their tricky winger last night.
Collins always seems to concede these kinds of goals, where it takes a slight nick and wrong foots him (see Man U’s 3rd in the semi last year). Maybe I am being harsh, but I still think he could of done better there.
When we were looking for a manager, I wanted Corberan before he left them anyway.When Corberan left, I’m pretty sure that I posted that they’d drop out the playoffs. I don’t mean to disrespect Mowbray but he really isn’t anywhere up to that standard and Corberan had them punching above their weight.
We have better gd than Millwaaaa!You're forgetting about Millwall, same points as WBA and Boro
We have better gd than Millwaaaa!
Plymouth win but they get a red card and get 3 injurys.It's a bit of a quandary about Middlesbrough's game on Friday. They play Plymouth and I am not sure what to wish for

Hull had only let in 7 goals in their previous 10 games so although they're near the bottom their recent form isn't bad.We did play very well.
Not wanting to pee on anyone's chips or anything, but Hull were very, very poor.
I am hoping it's because we made them look poor, rather than anything
else. On the surface it did look like we played really well.
Collins barely had anything to do all night.
Tougher test on Friday for sure.
True.Hull had only let in 7 goals in their previous 10 games so although they're near the bottom their recent form isn't bad.
You know you haven't played badly when you haven't lost and MOTM is your opponents GK.
Not seen much of them this season so I'm with you there. Wouldn't surprise me that the main reason they're solid at the back is their GK. We only beat him with a deflected shot.True.
I thought they looked (or we made them look) very much like relegation fodder on Monday night.
