Put a £10 double on a Derby and City both to win today before the off. Derby at 11/10 and City at only 4/11. Still that gives me nearly 2/1 on the double. Off now - let's see what happens.
Seen our team? Immers not even in 18. Has looked off pace last 2 games. Zohore in. On bench Moore, Turner, Dikgacoi, Harris,, Lawrence, Ameobi and Saadi. 3 wingers? Squad that thin? No sign of Fabio. Why?
Left that one a bit late lads - but job done. I hope next weeks game is on TV, win that and its game on for the final day.
Boy that was a late late show. We dominated the game but were often far too hasty rather than in control using the domination to provide an end product. The lack of a specialist goal scorer stood out a mile once and again nearly cost us. Although Zohore looks to be a good prospect, he is that just right now and has a lot to learn about the game over here. I'm glad he played - at least we've got a better idea of what he can do. That was a decent effort against a poor side and that's about all you can say about him at the moment. Game still on and that point that Sheff Wed got at Derby isn't really significant in the great scheme of things. We need to beat them next week and Brum at the CCS on the last day. Wednesday would have to beat Wolves at Molineux at the same time and that could be a problem for them - a draw will not do.
City were wretched. Bolton deserved the win. Marshall kept us in it. Noone, Ameobi & Malone again all poor. Their keeper should have saved Zahore's shot. But for once we get a last gasp goal and Slade gets off the hook. Why is Saadi on the bench? We ended up with no striker for last 20 minutes. Oh and shock of all shocks, Holloway predicted a City win!! We'll probably win at Weds but then lose to Bham.
5 wingers on the pitch at the end. And we still persisted with high crosses into the box. Very lucky penalty. Harris'first touch was awful, as usual, but sent the full back the wrong way and he clattered into him. A but of late luck for a change.
If we win next week Sheffield would have to win on the last game of the season to assure play offs, it could happen remember that we never do anything the easy way
Tickets expensive, 3 i bought came to £76 inc booking fee, Adult £36 Junior (under 17) £10 and and over 65 £26. of the 3 i thought the over 65 ticket price was more than a little steep, parking seems to be at a premium, but for those driving up apparantly there is limited parking at a lot for £7 sat nav post code S6 1SW. If memory serves me correctly there isnt alot close to the ground. but i will try and time it to get there about 2 hours prior to k.o. Trying to keep the faith but i have to admit we were lucky for the win on saturday. But your never know.
Results like that are sometimes the ones that make the difference. Playing to the last minute is what you need.
Not paying £36 to go to Wednseday. My son is in Sheffield and he's not paying it either. Absolutely disgraceful. We went up there in the promotion season and it was no more £25 I don't know how they can justify it.
