I wouldn't say confident, more been hopeful and positive. Was well aware Watford may beat us,saw it as a 50-50 and would have been delighted with a draw
We only dominated possession second half because they let us. We posed no threat, they were happy to watch us pass it sideways for 45 minutes.
Hang on, we just lost 1 - 0 to the 3rd best side in the league, you just lost to Barnsley (who were 2nd bottom til they beat you)! You've nothing to be smug about. You've also no chance of getting back into the play offs.
How am i posting bollocks? why am i being vilified for being negative after such a night? It's exactly the RIGHT TIME to be negative surely??! I've not been very negative all season. I've loved it but tonight was ****ing MASSIVE and sadly it will take some of you 4/5 games to realise how bad a loss it was.
I'm afraid i think automatic is lost now, yes we are second.. by 1 point, thats nothing, our form is ****, and the mental boost for them is massive, you saw them at the end..
One thing I am wrong about is there is another massive couple of games and it's ours vs boro and theirs vs cardiff. If we don't retain a 4 point gap this weekend then we won't be second by the time we play cardiff, mark my words.
exactly, they were in control all game, their keeper was comfortable for every attempt, they were all right at him..
Ok I've just looked at their run in, and there is hope. they have some very very tough games ahead of them imo. Cardiff, Peterborough, Millwall and Lester are all gonna be tough (the last three being away) My only concern is the shift in belief. a 7 point gap would have destroyed their belief.
And their massive belief now.. you saw their players at the end.. mentality is the most important at this stage.. There is hope.. but small hope.. just hope to god cardiff can do them over
Watching the straws being pulled from your white clenched knuckles has been too much for most of us already. They play cardiff next game, us middlesboro. Match eachother's results we'll still be in the box seat. How do you think the brighton game will go? Buffoon! Us getting beat at wembley is about a 40% possibility right now. You even making the playoffs is less than that. Prick.
Lads this is embarrassing. We just restricted the best attack in the division to one shot all game. We were incredibly unlucky tonight just like against Forest. We haven't been genuinely bad for about 2 months now. We're playing really well but you can't win every game. Watford and Palace will continue to drop points because they aren't as good as us, that's why they keep losing. We'll keep picking up wins until the end of the season. Not every week but we'll win games. The biggest threat to us is injuries and fitness. We need people like Meyler and Quinn in the run-in.
How long can we play the 'we were just unlucky card'? our form is w l w l w l for ahwile, watfords form is way better and thats a fact! Hope hobbs isin't serious
This might amaze you but...I agree 100% with that. Can't help thinking Prossie needs more match time. Can't understand why Fathi isn't used as a sub. But their goalie was the main difference tonight, and I suspect one day he's gonna be playing for a top 6 PL team. Now, Boro next.
