Is this much different to our approach towards Plymouth last year?
I think it's a bit rich of Leicester fans to call out 'luck' considering they broke the rules in a bid to stay up and then took advantage of this in the second tier. |

It's been a bit mix and match this year - Southampton from the 60th minute was superb, and we did well in both games against Leicester on the second. IIRC the game at St Mary's was on TV too and that was a classic away performance. Watford and Millwall away were both broadcast live as well.
Other than the second half of Watford at home the rule of thumb seems to be midweek games good, Saturday games bad. So Hull and, if shown, Huddersfield will be horrible but we'll do well at Coventry. But maybe Hull will be different as it's an evening kick off. |

My argument back then was we had the better squad so we should have pushed through in the manner we did.
Now seeing the 'struggles' of Leicester, Leeds and Southampton, where that same argument should apply, makes more realise how much I underestimated our achievement. And how relatively relaxing it was compared to this year! |

It seemed very odd timing to do the presentation after yesterday's game, rather than part of the post match stuff v Huddersfield. Though I guess it might be a bit flat if we're not in the top two - and they might push the players thanks to after the play off game. |

Reply | I just have a nagging doubt that we’ve drawn too many games this season
at 18:16 14 Apr 2024
I do think the number of draws may cost us - we'd be in a better position if we split the eleven draws into five wins and six defeats - but that's not down to us not going for it in those games.
ETA - Or even four wins and seven defeats. [Post edited 14 Apr 18:51]

Wasn't illness reportedly going through camp around the time of the Cardiff away game? And obviously there was the issue before QPR at home, leading into Stoke away.
I think I'd be looking at cleaning routines at Playford Road if I was Ashton. |

No. It's one of those things. In truth... what the heck are we doing leading the division over the likes of Leicester, Leeds and Southampton with three games left? Even excluding the games in hands. |

Leicester and Leeds did not deserve to lose recent games. They've created chances but not converted. As we know from last season, in that scenario things tend to eventually give.
Whereas we've looked flat for a while. Draws were probably fair results against Watford and Middlesbrough. We drifted around the hour mark at Blackburn and only switched on then versus Southampton. We didn't turn up at either Cardiff or Norwich.
If we return to the performances from pre Christmas then we'll go up automatically. If not, it will be a relative struggle. |

If we don't go up I'll be looking at Birmingham, Rotherham, Huddersfield and Cardiff away before the last two matches. |

QPR at home was a sick room. Away at Birmingham, when they were under a useless Rooney, and Rotherham bothers me more, alongside Cardiff.
The most gutting thing about this week is we knew Leicester had lost before playing Watford, and knew both them and Leeds had lost before playing Middlesbrough, yet failed to take advantage of it both times. |

The Iran's representation to the UN has said that, after this attack, the matter will be 'concluded', as long as Israel doesn't make another 'mistake'. |
