    Oh well, we were always going to need to win against Oxford. Can’t rely on others to help us out.

    Absolute carnage at Watford, another sub standard ref, now sent two off, first sending ok second one no fkg way, where do the FA get these muppets from.

    Would honestly never happen to us either. Both yellows minutes before second yellows, seems harsh on the players. Like here’s your first warning, then straight off. Bearing in mind I’ve not seen any of the tackles but if the 2nd yellows aren’t terrible they shouldn’t be sent off that quickly.

    I was hoping Watford would hold on, it would be a free hit for us today then with Monday being huge for Burnley and Sheffield

    Cardiff have been awful so unless Sheffield have nerves eating them away, I can’t see them dropping points

    I’m just hoping we can play at our best tonight

    Yep, need the win tonight. Can’t see Cardiff getting anything, they really are a poor team.

    Sheff Utd and Burnley definitely had the luck at the right times this season.

    11 away draws for Cardiff. Would be a good point today with Oxford at home for them on Monday

    I’m suddenly not looking forward to Bristol City. Hopefully they’ll beat Luton and Boro will lose to Wednesday on Monday meaning they’re top 6 and possibly thinking of resting some key players or remaining injury free and not overly trying against us

    Better still we just win our next two and Burnley take points off United

    He’s having a great game. A brilliant free hitting the post. We’ve nobody to hit a dead ball like that. Didn’t realise he’s also a midget

    On another note, it might favour us at times, it might hinder us, but with 4 games to go everyone should really be having the same kick off time.

    I do feel it favours early kick offs today, we’ve the later one tonight followed by earlier on Monday but it really does get to a stage where teams could settle for the draw knowing what happened earlier

    Early wins put pressure on the latter games, it’s not a fair balance for anyone involved

    Not watching the game but it looks like Cardiff aren't out of this yet. Anyone confirm?

    They are lacking quality but they are far from out of it

    In a season when we could go up, the thought of Derby and Cardiff getting relegated whets the appetite doesn’t it? Not too bothered by this….. providing we win <laugh>

    I'm more worried about both us and Plymouth needing the points on the last game of the season <yikes>

    Stop it, that’s Emu making you nervous. I preferred him saying we will dick someone by 8 or more this season, could be tonight.

    Always look on the bright side of life…

    It’s in our hands, hope the players just grasp this moment and it could be done by Monday. If it is and it wasn’t my company I’d be more worried about Tuesdays hangover :emoticon-0147-emo:
