    Wow. That's mental. I'm going to Bruges on a shoplifting spree.

    Completely outplayed Plymouth. Can’t imagine how fecked off I’d be if I travelled halfway across the country to watch that. Absolutely no intensity about them. You’d have thought it was us that needed the win.

    If ever a game summed up our season it was this one. Moments of magic, moments of chaos and an awful lot of questionable game/player management from Wagner. Somehow we move up a place in the table.

    Ipswich are pretty much up with the Leeds falling apart (again) but I bet they lose today though.

    No complaints, not good enough. 10 out of the last 12 seasons been in relegation trouble so got to hope it’s a reset in the league below, no bottleneck of bigger clubs like Saints,Norwich,Blades etc to compete with this time.
    Quality turnarounds from Wednesday and QPR, like us under Warnock last year.
    It should be a Ipswich win regardless but the fans will want us to rollover now if it keeps Leeds down.

    Now that Stoke are safe and their season is over… any chance we can borrow Schuey for the final day

    Not by a long chalk, off with your attempted jinxing.

    Oh the relief. I'm still mentally scarred from our last spell in League One over 20 years ago and I don't think I could have coped with another few years down there. Which it would have been, there's absolutely no way we'd have bounced straight back with the turmoil we'd have been in had we gone down. Would have been another manager sacked, a fight to stay within FFP and another big turnover of players with a lower budget to bring in replacements.

    Oh well we're into groundhog day with another summer 'rebuild'. Let's hope this time we finally have the right man in charge and can learn the many lessons of the past few years so we don't end up in this situation again.

    It's pretty clear with that line up today that Martin has his eye on the playoffs but not going into them playing our best team and getting momentum going is genuinely f*cking stupid. As soon as I saw the team sheet today I knew full well we'd lose. I honestly don't think the players are even playing for him now. They seem to be losing their belief and aren't happy with his tactics.

    That said, fair play to Stoke. Glad you boys stayed up. Had some absolutely cracking away day memories there and night's out on the pull in Jumping Jacks :laugh:

    Had some great games against Stoke in L1 way back when. The 9 men 2-0 win and Iwelumo breaking hearts being the stand outs. I quite like L1, but yeah going to the likes of Carlisle on a Tuesday night is pretty grim

    I have totally prepared myself for us to lose to Hull and on Tuesday to Coventry and it still to be in Leeds' hands next weekend :no:

    That's just the way fans are. :laugh:

    The one thing more than quality you lot have had this season is spirit and I think that takes you up. As frustrating as that is as I'd 100% take a playoff tie with Town over both Leeds and Saints that's for sure, even with them in their current form.

    Quite how our game ended 0-0 is a mystery. 30 shots, ok not on target but just needed 1 to go in and we could have relaxed finally. Appreciate Coventry went down to 10 men and have played a lot so credit to them for the blocks they made but just a frustrating one for us.

    Superb reception by the Cov fans for McFazean showing what he did for them, fitting that he took MOTM today.

    Was nervy seeing various scorelines, esp when Birmingham were winning. In our hands but got to go to Leicester and get a point to save relying on other results. Want a Hull win later to peg Ipswich back so Leicester maybe don't have 1st spot to worry much about and to keep Hull in the race for playoffs when playing Plymouth.

    Easy for me to say but I think you are home and hosed. Can’t see you screwing this up from here. Just a shame Jez isn’t around any more to enjoy this ( I am in contact with him though)

    Burns and Hirst in from the start. Bold from McKenna. Hirst hasn't played a minute since he went off on Boxing day

    If we'd been playing well and winning games i'd agree but we haven't looked at all good since the last international break. We've been limping towards the finish line.

    Hopefully that changes tonight.
