Which one of the three ?
I reckon a draw at least.
Sorry mate, wrong thread. I thought I was posting in PL General board.
Your club lost their way when they sacked Puel. Your club constantly sells all your players (good or average).
Need some soul searching in Championship for your own sake.
Also want Darren to get that credit!!
Or just sack Les Reed, the man who made those decisions...
No , I hope we get to stay up . Clubs like us tend to sell , it's not good , but maybe if there are changes at board level who knows , things may change .
We didn't lose our way when we sacked Puel , we lost it when we replaced him with MP2 .
I hate to be that person; the one who somehow manages to find a positive amongst of whole heap of negative. But actually, I'm going to be.
Whilst I was already in absolutely no doubt that Tuesday is a must-win for us - and by all accounts, 99% of us fans agree - there was the risk that Hughes and the players weren't quite of that mind-set. Given that two draws, for example, could have kept us until 15 mins ago, then if Tuesday was 1-1 with 10 minutes to go and Swansea really on top, for example, we might just have decided to play safe and take the point. A bit like at Leicester the other week, where a defeat looked on the cards if we dared to go for it.
Now that that has changed from needing a small last day miracle to needing a huge last day miracle, should we draw Swansea, I would like to think that any possible doubt whatsoever is cleared from Hughes' and the players minds. Win or bust, simple as.

I think Hughes and the team will go into Tuesday knowing we have to win and play attacking football from the get go. We played well against Everton and Swansea looked oh-so-poor against an average Bournemouth. Hughes would be a mad man to play safe football on Tuesday with the expectation we'll take anything against City. But then again, Huddersfield....
If we put our front foot forward and play with some confidence, we beat Swansea.
The question is, do I find a pub with sky sports to watch the game or do house chores and not follow the game...
Find a pub mate and watch it. Suffer with the rest of us.
Supporting Saints was never an easy option...

Plus, he will want to show his fav player / illegitimate son (?) who’s the best.

I'd like to welcome Cardiff to the premier league.
It is good to see that there will be a Welsh club again in the premier league next year.
