Doesn’t stop the midfield inexplicably failing to pass to a blue shirt, I’m not saying we should have won. But we had ample break aways lead to nothing.

Kitching was just heading it away like he'd done all game and that fucker just comes steaming out. I'm so angry, wtf is he doing?
I said when Dovin got injured some don't hate Sheffield United anywhere near as much as they should. That moment has killed us.

I do. Hate them with all might especially after Dovin.

Add Luton to that.

I always said that I'd judge him on next season, regardless of what happens this, that remains true. This is Robins' team, not Lampard's.

At the moment, after the last few weeks, I am still unsure whether long-term he will turn out to be a success.

Are you not slightly concerned about the persistent selection of Collins, despite his form throughout this season? To me, this suggests stubbornness and a lack of pragmatism. It doesn't mean I think he's a raging disaster, but it means I am still on the fence in general.

Absolutely…. Rob Gurney didn’t help either by suggesting it to Lampard it was the turn - the dirty fucker ran thru it.

Imagine thinking that a complete shithouse that plays for Sheffield United under Wilder didn't fully mean to hurt the keeper. He absolutely knew what he was doing.

Don’t really know what to say. Collins has a good game and then goes and does that. The spine of the team looks completely shot. It’s still in our hands but we are relying on players who clearly aren’t good enough and there are no good options in waiting to replace them.

Ive got my issues with Lampard but TBH this isn’t one of them. Wilson is just as much a liability and requires a change of how the whole team play.

He's got something like a 50% win percentage.

The Collins situation has nothing to do with stubbornness... they're not going to change the approach to games to accommodate Wilson at this point... especially as he is also a poor 'keeper. I genuinely don't understand why we've extended his contract.

I said this 10 or so games ago but it feels more evident now...

I really don't want playoffs this season. No reliable keeper, injuries piling up, momentum gone.

All that to go get tanked in the semis by blades? No thanks.

Let's get a longer rest in - give Lampard his rebuild - and we go again. No excuses.

Just re watched the goal. Totally mental decision from Collins, Kitch had full control zero pressure. Gutting. Binks really should have cleared it too but Collins caused that entire situation yet again. I literally don't care if Wilson is crap next week I'm done with Brad. Fuck him off on a free in the summer, take a loss if needs be, his whole demeanor seems wrong for what we want

How does it?

You could say the same about having to draw.

Same.

I'd also agree with you more generally if Collins' form wasn't quite *so* wretched, but as it is, I think you have to take him out of the firing line.

He's cost us at least 6 points in the past 6 games, 2 of which we've won!

If Blackburn win their last 2, they will finish ahead of us if we draw next week.

This may be the most disappointing match since the FA Cup game last year. It wouldn't be quite as bad but for the fact that it's the same player costing us every game.

Not sure you fully understand the concept of “in our hands”, but FYI we are also playing in the game against Middlesbrough next Saturday

the soft goals we’ve conceded, it’s past embarrassing, if your a keeper your gonna make mistakes but learn from them, same as Burnley, even if he does nothing they Don’t score, and binks, just put your left foot through it, goes with his right, I’d say Sunday league defending but that’s not fair on Sunday league,

We’re really not good enough all over the pitch. Huge rebuild needed in the Summer. We honestly only have about 7 who can help us genuinely progress.
I do think Kitching was immense today and it has to be said if stubborn little Mark had played him earlier in the season we might have done better!

A 0-0 was the least we deserved including Collins
One world class save and another smart one. He fucked up the goal though
So so frustrating
As for not this year sod that take your luck move on win next week and line up against sheff Utd and get some pay back for the dovin injury

There's only one bloke to blame for that goal, and it's not Binks.

Actually, two blokes, the fucking clown in goal, and, I'm afraid, the bloke who picked him. Let's hope the latter has learned a lesson at least.
