And played shit in all of those 5 games. Granted, results have gone in our favour in them, but we went behind in 3 of them 5, including to a very poor Charlton, we got pegged back from 2 up by Boro, and have got 1 clean sheet in 9.

No we didn't, going behind does not equal playing shit.

Imagine a Southampton or Ipswich, they win that by a few goals. But let’s blame the referee as @Nick thinks

Ipswich were given a second shot at Blackburn despite having 10 men and being 1-0 down with 10 mins to go… and still didn’t win.

people need to calm down. Southampton nearly blew a 3-0 lead to a dead man walking in Ryan Mason.

our “out of form” has seen us take 10 points from our last 5 games. If we’re that out of form for the Rest of the season we piss the league

This has turned into the kind of match thread only a disappointing result can create. So petty.
We are so fucking back.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Yeah because I was the only one who pointed it out....

I have pointed out particular refs / officials being terrible when we have won.

Just admit we didn’t play very well, we should have won, a ruthless team in this league puts a few past them

 

[Ccfcisparks]

opta still have us predicted to win the title at 80% for what it’s worth…

 

[djr8369]

That ref giving a foul against Mason Clark on the edge of the box in injury time p#ssed me off. Turned into a 'homer' in the second half. Main positive is the players won't have taken too much out of themselves ( in terms of impact collisions) in that second half, so should be fresher for Bristol City ( who play tomorrow)

It’s so frustrating so often EMC concedes fouls just for standing his ground and being strong yet CB’s can just employ wrestling moves and get away with it.

 

[skyblu3sk]

good name for a UK Subs kinda band.

I'll take the royalties

 

[Shannerz]

They aren’t even a possession based side. They didn’t look any different in their approach with 10 or 11 men.

We looked more like scoring first half; we opened them up a few times.

I know people get annoyed when I say it but he's getting performative now.

 

[mmttww]

why you bottling accepting my mate...

Shut up you dick, get back to the Birmingham forum.

We’ve got a great chance playing Ipswich and Southampton in the next 3 games, we need points in them

 

[Sick Boy]

The players do seem to switch off fairly often. It happed on Saturday as well. I’m sure Lampard will be fuming.

All the top teams have to come to us now. We're monsters at the CBS.

 

[jordan210]

It's infuriating but most teams get everyone back these days.

was more fun when we used to leave two
Up and smash them on the counter

 

[Nick]

I have literally said we didn't play very well on the match thread and at no point have I said "that result was because of the ref".

Do you want me to sign something for you and your mate because you're a bit obsessed? It's cute.

Wish the bookies would let me back us not getting promoted so I can have a win win scenario

 

[skyblu3sk]

Frustrating ? playing a team with 10 men for over half a game and you can’t miss chances like wright first half .

Fucking hell chap if you are going to throw yourself off a roof every chance we don't take it's going to be a long season. You have been spoilt and forgot yourself.

Lampard has called Steve Gibson to concede and congratulate Middlesbrough on their Championship title. Fingers crossed for the playoffs though!

 

[Ccfcisparks]

If we can get 7-9 points in total from December it is brilliant.

It was always going to be a difficult month, we both said that in August when discussing transfers and everyone said our squad was fine

 

[Chicken Mcgraw]

Here we go....

Go there now you might be able to lose your virginity.

The 40 year old lard arse who can’t play crazy golf without mouth breathing is talking about virgins. It really does write itself.

Approve this one please chubs

 

[TomRad85]

Shut up you dick, get back to the Birmingham forum.

I assumed they can't read or write so wasn't aware of it's existence.

This was always a very hard month. We’ve played all our hard away games.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

And 3 of the bottom 4

 

[DT-R]

We switched off from their throw. Rudoni and jds both let their RB get 2 yards of them before taking him seriously.

Yes Wright was weak but those two fell for the long throw fake, it went short and they assumed he was gonna punt it on but he took it down the line

Thats where were threw it away

Btw Wright missing that header is absolutely criminal

I mean, EVERY week, Rushworth almost gets caught out with the ball at his feet and ends up hoofing it for a throw. The entire calamity of errors started with him wanting too much time with the ball at his feet and gifting them a throw. Then the rest fell to fucking rat shit. How can you be so negative and defend corners and throws against 10 men by bringing ALL 11 men back in the box? And then still gift them a set piece goal too! Fucking woeful all round!

What’s frustrating is we’ve cut out quite a few abysmal goals by stopping our habit of pissing about at the back trying to look like Baresi on relaxants and gone more direct. We slip back into it again and bang they score. I’m still not having Dasilva as improved. If you think he has just watch their goal. Woeful

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I was looking for the same this week haha 1/25 to get promoted, £100 on us not to make it would have been nice to settle the nerves

Path of least resistance

It's like an episode of Quantum leap

 

[jto123]

Not relishing the Bristol city game now

 

[CovLad94]

Anything been mentioned on Van Ewijk? Hopefully just illness and not a niggle.

 

[Sick Boy]

If we keep up our home form, that should be enough for the autos.

 

[Gint11]

Dominated the game. Final third wasn’t quite good enough and they had 1 chance, 1 goal.

2 points dropped but overall, with high post game emotion taken out of it, it’s a solid point.

MVE out, Eccles going of, injuries mounting

 

[mmttww]

I’m sure Lampard will be fuming.

Looked like he wanted to floor someone at full time and Rudoni looked like he was about to cry. Like when you know your Dad is gonna tear you to bits when you get home.
