    Well that is me done for the night. Norwich ripping through us like a hot knife through butter and are 2-0 up. Enjoy your piss easy 3 points Norwich

    You got the hang of us after the first 5-10 mins but Pearson's injury has certainly made a big difference.

    Very, very poor today. Norwich have been excellent but we got the formation completely wrong today and have been torn apart as a result. Back to the drawing board and Schumacher needs to do a bit of introspection after this. Another game where a fair degree of the blame falls onto his shoulders by getting the line up and set up completely wrong from the off.

    If Birmingham don’t get anything out of our game they will feel very hard done by .

    Still think it'll be 3 of the bottom 4 for relegation but I can now see why the Stokies were so nervous. Somehow more open defensively than Rotherham today.

    We were pretty good. Now to convert to all of the religions in pray that Sargent makes it through international duty unscathed.

    Take the 1-0 scrappy win as we needed to get 3 points.

    Obviously didn't sound too great though and Bachmann had one of his good days.

    Might be the last 3 points we get for a while - or even a point.

    Great 2-0 win without looking great.

    Another goal for fellows.

    Another home clean sheet.

    There was a clean sheet kept in every championship game played today.

    Wow, great response after Cardiff. Sheffield Wednesday are terrible though and surely getting relegated. A fair few of their fans left on the 50th minute!

    The derby really is shaping up to be one hell of a game.

    Im still not confident even after a 6-0 win. Seems Wes burns may be out for some time :(

    Cheers Watford. We're going to need all the help we can get in the run in.

    Bad day for us without playing. We'll have to play catch up.

    Very low scoring day in general. Many players wanting to go on holiday...

    Most of our team still haven't come back from last summer's holiday.

    As long as it's the last one of the season :pray

    To say i'm dreading it and the prospect of playing you at some point in the play-offs is an understatement

    A great bounce back after last week.

    I’m wanting to take it game by game but I make it that if all the reverse results are matched in the final games for the top 4, we make top 2.

    We always seem to be part of the seasons where the highest points total are needed for promotion/play offs/relegation, last season for a start! I seem to recall McCarthys first season he took over and kept us up when the most points in a season went down and then the play offs in 2015 needed the most points for 6th (7th had 78)

    Tronstad being fit to play today was a welcome boost and unexpected for this one but he does a great job for us to support the defence. Whilst this was 0-0, there were chances for both teams. Boro could have snatched it at the death but we also had a goal mouth scramble moment. I think it was a fairly even game overall and we played better than of late so overall a good point. Shame we couldn't get the 3pts with other results around us but that would have been hard on Boro.

    Hopefully all our players away on duty return unscathed and we can kick on as best we can.

    I’m pleased we stopped the losing run, but by f*cking Christ that was possibly the worst game of football I’ve witnessed at the Stadium of Light.

    Utter dross from start to finish.
