    But we are safe!! Bottom 4 cant pass us now.. Proves the point Dyche knows more about managing across a season than the armchair pundits...

    I think that Chris Iwelumo looks a lot fitter and more mobile than he did for the first 30 games.

    Yup, when he came on vs Coventry he looked like a new man, and since then he has kept that going.

    Pleased for him, and my opinion has completely changed. Was looking to see him gone ASAP, now I wouldn't mind him staying around.

    Yes - I'll hold my hand up to being against his signing when it happened, but fair play to him for turning his, and our, season around. <applause>

    The worst we have played all season

    We knew what to expect and played that way

    A bad day at the office

    Neil Warnock will need a new excuse.

    Don't think he'll get it if Soton beat Blackpool.

    Think I'd rather Southampton beat Blackpool than Dyche getting MOTM to be honest :). Could be level with them on points come Friday if things go well.

    I thought Dicko got booked, but neither BBC or Hornets Player Match stats seem to think so? I can see our last game v Boro being the decider for a playoff place! Rumour has it we've given them whole Vic end - can anyone confirm or deny?

    Dicko did get booked, the BBC missed a few bookings.

    When you try and buy tickets online, there's none available in the Vic road end. It's usually quite an empty stand on our side....but it is family day so I'm not sure.

    I also hold my hands up, when I went to Leicester and watched CI I thought he was completely and utterly rubbish he proved his doubters wrong and for that I salute him! Well done SD for getting the best out of CI, it has taken time but well worth waiting for ;)

    What will the whingers on the Wobbly site say now, I mean we are on a run and could just maybe make the play-offs<yikes>

    Well done SD, his backroom staff and the players<applause>

    I know what people say about the manager of the month but I just think SD needs some recognition for the achievements over the last couple of months. McDermott at Reading is surely the only other contender and I think they lost one in March.

    If we manage to beat Blackpool on Friday there'll be a very good chance we'll move to as little as 3 points off the playoffs! It will start to get real then!

    Would prefer for him to get it in April, when we have gone an unbeaten winning run that has taken us to the edge of the Play-offs;)

    just looking at the table we are effectively 7 points down coz of GD and there are 4 clubs on 63 as it stands unless the saints do something

    Rugby was terrible. 24-19 is a perfectly respectable scoreline, but it was absolutely woeful until the final 20 minutes, when Saracens were always at least one man up. Even then it was the rugby equivalent of a goalmouth siege with all the chances falling to Liam Henderson and Nathan Ellington.

    Was the football as good as the scoreline suggests?

    You gonna change it young man? "Get Dyche some decent help"???????? The run in looks very very tough now. Could be fun.

    Ok I'm confused, I thought Leeds were going to "smash little Watford"

    What happened ;)
