    So irrelevant - as if 'boro have a chance of going up! They won't even make the six. Will probably get beaten by Watford, who have nothing to play for, next game.

    Unlucky lads, feel we were unfortunate today. Losing Chaplow and Bennett replacing Hoyte were big factors in the result, as well as some refereeing decisions that went against us :(. Congratulations Reading.

    I'll take it every day of the week, but if Leicester win or draw on Monday, it won't feel right.

    Just to add to misery... both Sky and BBC have a Championship game for the final day to announce... West Ham and Saints games for sure.

    Yes, the referee cost you the game. But try and remain calm, you have an easy game at home next Saturday. It'll be a competition between Sharpe and Lambert of who can score more!

    I've been warning people for weeks now that the Coventry game will 99% be on TV.

    No, ref decision I don't think can be blamed really. Always a scoundrel's way out. Just a classic tough away game, and I don't think we played that badly - just got undone by a decent 'boro performance. Just delays the inevitable a bit longer. And gives West Ham some hope! Would have been nice to play the final game knowing we were safely promoted, but still going for the title - keeping an eye on the Reading result etc.

    Can we really have 3 of our last 4 games of the season on TV?

    Not the end of the world, I don't feel too disappointed. We didn't play great - from memory, their keeper didn't make a single save. Disappointed with the referee of course - it wasn't a straight red for Hines, but it absolutely was a yellow. And of course it would have been his second of the game. But that aside, we didn't play great.

    I still completely expect us to beat Coventry, and who knows, Leicester may even seal it for us on Monday. This was always down as a banana skin for me, which is why it was important that WH slipped up vs Bristol City.

    Very dissapointed with that because there is nothing to say. We could blame the ref, or ourselves for conceding another goal the same as Norris'.
    Wasn't impressed with Guly today. Chaplow wasn't excellent but he was at least involved and trying to influence the game.
    Leicester tend to play up against the big teams (we should know) so still plenty of hope. Plus, look what happened when we went up second last season! Outshone the champions by miles. Would take the same next season!

    Thank you for being the voice of reason. It was certainly a second yellow, I can't help but feel if he wasn't already on a yellow then he'd have been booked, I think the ref bottled it not wanting to show a red.

    I'm officially a Leicester supporter until full time on Monday now. I know we shouldn't be relying on other teams, but what the hell, why not. COYR/B

    What's a proper supporter? Do me a favour and point out a post of mine where I don't adhere to the rules that you set out?
