Nice one Dunc - keep up the good work!

 

Great thread Dunc

But I don’t think we’ve lost at home to Leeds in 2024! Our last home loss was 1-3 Blackburn on 5 November, so we might be closing on six months without a home loss.

In fact, we’ve only dropped points at home in 2024 once, drawing with Southampton on the first day of the year. We did also draw at home to Bristol Rovers in the FA Cup.

8 home wins on the bounce, for some reason the loss in January to Leeds I incorrectly remembered as a home defeat .

I blame CERN, on my timeline that was a home game

Also I thought I read Sorensen was out for the season , I should perhaps wait until the team news comes out before posting in future.

 

I can't believe we have only played them 18 times in the league. That means we have been in the same division for only nine seasons, which is a surprisingly small amount. Seems, to my memory, to be much more than that.

 

I probably got that wrong too

 

Hi guys my take on the game today at your place -i think you be fine with that playoff spot good luck.

Well another tough test at playoffs chasing Norwich-apparently we are two inform sides in the championship.
We lost to a late goal in injury time at Ashton Gate earlier in the season.Saturday they have something to play for in getting into the playoffs with Hull on their tails.Where we have nothing to play for.
I'm going for a Norwich win with them wanting it more than us come 4:45pm.

 

We have played them 78 times in all competitions.
18 since 2007.
Your memory is right.

 

Maybe that's just the Championship total I Googled

 

Leicester one up against West Brom. If Leicester score another 7 goals, we could be fifth with a draw… aim high.

 

The Duffy Gibson pairing looked pretty tight last game , another clean sheet would be good
