THIS IS THE CHAMPIONSHIP! Over the tough winter period teams' forms will fluctuate - it's about staying up the top.
Absolutely right. There are some very odd people here who seem to expect us to go through the entire season without losing. Even I know that isn't going to happen - you simply have to stay in front of everyone else, and I may be wrong but we seem to be doing that? Some people won't be satisfied until we are 20 points clear. And even then I suspect they will complain!
Cardiff dropped points too, what a strange League this is, Skate 1 up. (had to re-edit as some text vanished!)
I'm pleased with a draw. With Bart's clanger, missed chances in the first half, being poor in the second half and the ref not giving us much, we showed real character to pull it back. Lambert showing his class once again.
Holloway was angered that 5 mins of added time was added on. Newsflash Ian, we scored in the 3rd minute of added time!
This is what NA said on Bart: "Bart is always outstanding in training and he will be a stronger character for what happened to him. "We will support him and help him get over this mistake and the good thing is we did not lose the game.
How about telling his side not to time-waste then? He's only got his own players to blame. Personally, I was expecting 6 minutes.
With our current squad, I would say that Lambert has now overtaken Lallana as our most important player.
I was saying this today. Where would we be without him? Well, probably turning in more performances like the Doncaster one.
Agreed, we missed Lambert more when he was injured, and he only missed 1 game whereas Lallana missed several!
