    It’s a must win, and we will.

    Ridiculous some of the patter we have been better team in both games against a very tidy Ipswich and a very competitive Preston.

    I’m going with 3-1 the lads, and everyone can calm the **** down.

    Same here, the only possible improvement is Batth for O'Nien but that depends on Batth.

    Sun's out and 11 lads will be pulling on the red and white shirts and working their bollocks off to get a win.

    We might not agree on formations, line ups, how happy TM looks but HAWAY ME BONNY LADS

    Good point. If those games were spread over the season somewhere we'd be shrugging our shoulders and saying it happens.

    If we'd looked well short and been battered there would have been cause for concern, but we weren't.

    Your team looks fine to me RTB <applause> . We have not deserved to loose in either game so far, so lets hope this is third time lucky and our football is the winner today. OaU

    I seem to recall seeing somewhere that all the Championship games would be available using the red button on your sky box.
    I actually used this a couple of times last season.

    Does anyone know if this is correct because I’ve not seen any adverts or info about this.
    For example, will our game against Rotherham be available using the red button today?

    Is it something to do with iFollow?
    Maybe I’ve got it all wrong but if there’s anything to this it would be handy for us to know if we can get some games using the red button.

    Anybody got any info on this or have I got it all wrong.
