Two thirds of the season done and three points off top- not bad given we've just had a dodgy spell. I think we should still be optimistic.

Looks like the fight for automatic promotion and play off places is going to the wire.
Good 3 points tonight.

When they got back to 3-2 I thought, here we go, we'll concede last minute and Norwich will grab a winner.

Thankfully, I was only 50% right.

Sunday is fkING massive now.

Pressure is on them though, I look at their squad and can't believe they're not in the top 2 still. Incredible.

Chris Wood in.

Not sure where he fits in, but could be a hero on Sunday, nice to give a new player that opportunity.



I'm stting it to be honest.

Looking forward to Watford away on the 21 March now as that'll be my next game unfortunately.

Yeah. Tough one on Sunday.

Woods in is to replace McGoldick I reckon. I think there's been a falling out. Something isn't right with him. His attitude stinks since the Leicester bid saga.

Well it's been a really tough last couple of games. We can all moan about it, but it's the first time we've lost back to back games this season (and the last team in the division so to do).
I'm starting to get concerned about our staying power now. Injuries are catching up with us and the loanees need to find form quickly now that Murphy's in a bit of a dry spell. I didn't expect him to miss the pen on Wednesday.
Even Big Mick's saying the Brentford game is one we mustn't lose - and if you look at our March fixtures you can see why. We have the toughest run in of any team fighting it out at the top for sure.
COYT!!

Yep, seem to be running out of steam. Brentford are bloody good, more so at home, we'll need to be right on it to win.

I think auto promotion has just gone over the last week. We've run out of steam. The norwich game showed the difference in squads.

We now need to fight back and get a playoff place at the least.

Wow. Just wow.

That was an unexpected bonus! I'm happy to eat my words on this one.

It just goes to show what a whacky division this is. Apparently we played out of our skins. Nice to see the lads are still up for the fight and wanting promotion.

MM went there on the attack and to his credit it paid off. He gets a lot of stick for being negative but I think he showed how tactically adept he is.

I can't understand how we can go to Rotherham and perform like we did, then do this to Watford.

7 to go. We can do this!

Unbelievable scenes, few dudes on the pitch at the end, couple got away with it, one was dragged off.

Great away day!

Nice to have a break.

We are getting a lesson here, I can't see us holding on to the lead for another 45 minutes.

Flew over to watch the game yesterday. We got the 3 points but we were awful. I would like to say that a wins a win and that is all that matters, but if we play like that in our next 4 games we have no hope of making the playoffs.
When I was last over ( before Xmas ) we got the ball down and played some decent football. Yesterday we just lumped it forward at every opportunity.
On another note anyone know what is going on with McGoldrick?

I was listening on the radio (had brickwork and lintels to sort) and it did sound terrible.

McGoldrick is out, just keeps antagonising the injury according to Mick. Nothing untoward as I hear it.

I thought we'd lose before they kicked off, all I heard on the radio was

"haven't won away"
"haven't beaten Ipswich at PR"
"Relegated"
"Nothing to play for"

Then they went 1 up and I thought "here we go"

So, with that in mind, a win's a win!
