    It also gives us just that little bit of hope
    and as we know “it’s the hope that kills you”
    UTO!

    The difference in halves again for us today is astounding. Did alright first half and deservedly took the lead but it all went to complete shit again in the second. Unreal.

    We deserved nothing in the end, and though there was good fortune in Brum’s winner I think it’s what they deserved. I think it’ll be mid-table mediocrity for us this season and a big rebuild in the summer with Jack Clarke leaving.

    A win and clean sheet but a fortunate one maybe.

    Relying on individuals at the moment.

    Not consistent as a team or team selection .

    Yeah, he's out of his depth sadly. Totally agree that the players need to look at themselves, there was zero leadership out there today. One of the most embarrassing performances in the past few days.

    When Rowett left, I jokingly told people on here not to laugh when we finish 23rd. That's exactly where we're ending up if there aren't wholesale changes. I'm going to Southampton for some reason. I reckon I'll have sleepless nights all week.

    For some reason I had it in my head that we were an evening game today. Looks like I missed a rare, proper performance from my lot.

    Yeah fair play, thought you looked right up for it and very comfortable for the majority of the game. The 4-0 at Hillsbrough feels a lifetime ago

    Feels weird to come from 2-0 down to get a point and still come away feeling disappointed, Blackburn were there for the taking 2nd half but we just didnt create enough

    It still blows my mind that you’re only five points off fifth but 20 behind us.

    It’s actually not impossible that you could get the last play off spot and beat us to go up.

    It’s unlikely for sure but that’s what makes this league so good. The fact it’s even possible.

    I was so confident about it being a late ko that I must have thought I had checked. :slap:

    Oh well, 4 - 1. Josh Sargent is the best forward in the league. Wagner's taking us up like he said he would.

    Should have been winning that, but not a disaster. Delighted his 12 month layoff hasn't ruined Riis.

    I think it's fair to say we deserved a point but it was a brilliant strike that won it.
    It's hard work going now, only 5 more home games to endure.

    Football bloody hell :cheers:

    Rode our luck a bit, practically asking Huddersfield to nab one and they did. What a great response to get a late winner for what could have been deflating outcome.

    Yeah, blows my mind too. That 5-0 was so long ago now :laugh:

    I appreciate what you’re saying, and while our home form is good, our away form simply is not. We’ve won once since September away from home which is miles off it.

    We showed plenty of heart and fight but there is an absolutely painful lack of quality when going forward. And Hoever is an absolute f*cking liability and I never want to see him play for the club ever again.

    We deserved that today. Moore was excellent, Burgess played the conditions brilliantly and I’m so pleased for Chaplin to score.

    I’ve been far from impressed with Luke Williams since taking the Swansea job. I know the squad he inherited is very one dimensional but tactically he’s already made lots of glaring errors.

    Another poor performance. Players and fans seem to have lost all belief.

    Not helped by 4 of our probable 5 first-choice defensive players being injured. And Ramsey picked up another knock so missed today having not played a full game since returning from injury. But I’m sure all teams have key players out at present so no excuse.

    Feels like we’re just hoping we can pick up a handful of points to survive. Disappointing after an encouraging start under Bulut.

    You wouldn’t if you supported Norwich though would you!!


    *Just for clarity, I know Norwich are a far better side than us.
