The war cry of 500,000 Women every Saturday when hubby rolls in from the football at 9 p.m and tries to get the leg over...
I expected the let down after the scintillating Southhampton display. And we got one but we ground out a well. deserved draw. Seems we struggle to put games to bed. Lot of people had Fabio as the MOTM but I am still not convinced he is better than Abdush or Tufan. Many on this board say we need to break quicker. Well both Tufan and Omur who play in a very similar way, are alway looking for a first time pass to open up the game which allows us to break thru the oppositions defense. At the moment Omur seems to have more success on a minutes played basis than Ozan, but both are superior to Fabio in this respect.
That was a good point today, in a game we could easily have lost (or won). If we'd have got 4 points from the last 2 games having drawn at Soton and won today we all be saying 'good return'. So can't complain. Lots to be positive about. To not make the playoffs from here would be a big disappointment and we're good at Championship playoffs. Gonna be an interesting couple of months.
I agree, but there are some very tough games coming up from now until the end of the season and we seem destined to drop points against teams you wouldn't expect either. Going to need some special wins against sides above us to really cement a playoff spot by the end of the season. Penultimate game is Ipswich... Can see this going right down to the wire personally. We're improving fairly steadily though, but still, I don't think we're really getting the most out of the attacking talent due to the mentality. If this isn't down to Rosenior, then the players need to step up and be braver, take those chances that win you games etc.
Hate early kick offs. Big Physical unit West Brom..we ain’t. Glad for a point in the end.. Forza CITY Allam’s GONE.
I think I’d have said the same, but Iwelumo literally has his coaching badges so it’s difficult to make a case against what he said. It also wasn’t something he just said off the cuff as it went in, he went back to it and explained in detail why it was poor goalkeeping.
If we can stay in the top 6 until Delap is back we're laughing. With the new players around him now he'll be massive for us, he's exactly what we need right now.
When is he back? Pandur coming in will be the biggest thing for us, providing he’s half as good as we hope he is.
First of all what a brilliant goal from Carvalho, once that went in we needed that second however it wasn’t to be. Overall a draw a fair result and as like many have said the game could have gone either way. Results today overall very good, another tough game next week but isn’t it great to be in the top six with twelve games to go, definitely beats been in a relegation fight or mid table not much to play for, when we are involved in a very tough promotion race.
I thought Connolly was very good. He was in the right areas to get on the end of through balls and crosses and was just off-target with a header opportunity.
I’m taking credit for that, cos I shouted shoot just before he did, shame the camera didn’t have our view from East cos it fairly flew in like a bullet
The only posts I have seen about the atmosphere today are from people watching it on the telly because Sky mentioned ' the Hull fans are quiet'. At kick off the atmosphere was electric, loud and proud. Of course it tails off when the play does, and of course we could be louder, as every club could be louder, but it's hardy the issue some, who probably were not there, are trying to make it.
Issue is, as I said a week or so ago and got told off for, if we had flipped the two results, we'd be two points clear of WBA in 5th despite having the same points tally. That's why winning against WBA was actually more important.
You say this as if it means anything and someone like Joey Barton or Iain Dowie doesn't also have their coaching badges.
