Squeaky bum time - but at least there's no idiot fan to run onto the pitch and distract us this time.
Tepid stuff, lost a bit of sharpness due to the break but a win is a win, 6 in a row. Happy Easter all, see you Monday.
Certainly not a game or performance to remember. Looked very rusty and off colour. Have to improve for the Boro and Reading games. But a win was the key and Swansea/Brentford have had their share of fortunate results in recent times.
Teams that win promotion win those scrappy games by the odd goal Teams that are choking draw games they are in total control of or even lose We are 9 points clear of Swansea and 10 clear of Brentford and games in hand do not count as points until they are played For the first time we are completely in control of our destiny and it is only ours to lose not those behind to win Catching up with Norwich would however make it our best ever season
At least they didn't score in the final minute this time! We still had some good chances for 2/3-0 1st half and I don't think they offered too much in attack despite Bannan doing well. Rhoades should have scored I guess. Suppose we'll have all this "good luck" now then nothing IF we go up. Come on Birmingham and Huddersfield.
If Brentford and Swansea only draw one of their next two or three games then that take some of the pressure of us If Norwich do the same they will wearing nappies during their games
So Norwich draw a second match in 11 so a loss of 4 points whilst over the same period we lost one match, a loss of 3 points. It is still possible to catch them but we have gained one point on them in the last 6 weeks. In fact when we beat them in Xisco's first match we were 7 points behind so all that time and only a point clawed back, we need them to lose a match with us winning so that the match against them will be the real 6 pointer!
It was the draws against Millwall and Coventry and the home defeat against QPR that almost undid our season and Cisco at least admitted he made mistakes and since then it has only been the game against Bournemouth that has been a bad one but they won that by cheating and bad refereeing Norwich have not had a real wobble yet, hope they go up automatically but we were cheated out of the title the last time we went up so fingers crossed
