    Rotherham relegated which was inevitable but 3 massive points for Argyle.

    Getting twitchy at both ends of the table.
    Also makes you wonder where Coventry would be if they didn't score so many own goals.

    Looking at today's awful display I would say we have been struck dumb.

    Both away games I would have attended, however this season's travels are now over and will begin again next season.

    Ipswich must have thought it’s Xmas after last nights results but couldn’t take advantage.

    Bristol hit 5<yikes>

    This and the recent Millwall defeat remind me of the Leicester fan who called in to Robbie Savage and Chris Sutton on 606 say he thought Leicester would go through the season unbeaten. I wonder if Robbie Savage will hear from him again?

    Unlike BT to be sarcastic, must be end of season blues! Normally an outstanding character, not known for having a chip on his shoulder like the other fella BFB TIT. Maybe it has rubbed off of him as they hang together.....I expect he is still nice though! No offence intended BT, just keeping a watch out for you.....got your back so to speak pal! :emoticon-0103-cool: Masky

    We've won 18 games this season and 14 of those have been by a single goal margin - some of those very fortunate. We've also drawn the fewest games (5) in the division apart from Leicester on 4. That means we've lost 19 and we've also got by far the worst goal difference in the top half at -10, in fact we're the only club with a negative GD.

    If we had a real finisher up front like Szmodics, Armstrong or Whittaker instead of Deadwood Diedhiou, Meandering Meite and for all his tireless effort Grafting Grant, we could have got at least a point from some of those defeats. Consequently we'd be sitting top 6 with these 4 games left instead of being satisfied with a mid table slot.

    That mid table outcome would have been deemed a real achievement at the start of the season, but our lack of a player who can put away the half chances we do make has cost us. Admitedly we haven't created that many, but it's as much of a problem now if not more than the much discussed lack of a midfield in the recent past.

    Did you just see Szodics super goal for Blackburn at Leeds - what a finish - that's what we need. <applause>

    Bamford as usual diving for a penalty- he’s got form.

    This promotion race for the top 2 is bizarre.

    Blackburn ship 5 at Bristol then win at Leeds.

    Blackburn’s top scorer surely won’t be at Ewood Park next season.

    What price Boro doing over Ipswich
