    After tomorrow we’ll be exactly halfway through the season in terms of games played, still be out of the drop zone even if we lose, and still have a game in hand.

    Of course it’s not a must win <doh> ffs

    Would be nice not to lose.

    In fact a 0-0 draw would be progress wouldn't it ?

    On the assumption that we lose and Wolves win(?) we will be clear on goal difference only
    You may like living on the edge but this is not good for my bp:(

    There's no such thing.

    Even when we needed a win at Brentford on the last day a draw would have been enough <laugh>

    Probably receive a large fine if it's the 3rd consecutive Prem TV 0-0 <yikes>

    Listening to Jesse after Cardiff I'd say there is zero chance of us not going gung ho...

    Should be fun but definitely won't be 0-0.

    I prefer not to live my life on assumptions, ifs and maybes tbh. I don’t worry about things that are out of my control :biggrin: it is what it is and what will be will be.

    Ditto.

    Apparently we spent all day Thursday practising set pieces in prep for Brentford. So were you the type to assume, you could assume we’ll concede from a set piece. Maybe <laugh>

    Also the Jesse commented that they’re content to let you feel in control of a game and then hit you on the break in numbers when you least expect it. So you can assume we’ll concede like that too.

    So by my reckoning we only need to score 3 for a famous win <cheers>

    Read that as well and have to say was a little bit concerned.

    Jesse said he discussed with the team how we wanted the game to look and what sort of game we wanted to play, blah, blah, blah...

    Meanwhile Thomas Frank is just telling his players to put the ball on the ' old onion bag ' more times then we do.

    …They’re a strange side Brentford. In the championship they played great football but lacked a clinical edge. Now in the Prem they look sh*t every time I see them, but keep getting results. Really well organised defensively, don’t create much but when they do, it’s often a guilt edged chance. Kudos to Thomas Frank.

    Not sure why we were practicing defending set pieces tbh it’s the one piece of defending we’ve been ok at.

    By all means spend time practicing all the other arts of defence - they need working on asap.
