In the time we've been in the league we've both won league 4 titles, both are pointless stat's as neither team have won it in any of our lifetimes.

I'm no fan of Charnley but I do think his treatment by HMRC looks to have been excessive. I guess we'll just have to wait and see once the dust finally settles on this mess.

I'd worked out that you'd disagreed but thanks for pointing that out.

The stat's back up what I was watching, he had a good game and I didn't see anything from him that made me think playing in the championship was his level.

Yet he had the most touches, made the most passes and won the most tackles out of the 22 players on the pitch tonight. Did that all happen after his goal?

He played most of the game along side a footballing cretin and played well.

We're unlikely to bring in two players for his position and Gouffran is almost certainly going so keeping Atsu would make sense.

Hayden has loads of potential, he's more likely to become a good premiership footballer than become a championship plodder.

Yes.

He was probably referring to the two penalties and the red card the referee missed for us.

I'd sign him, I think he's got more to offer than we've seen from him. I think he'd do much better if we had Gayle running into space.

He was brilliant tonight and did everything, I can't wait to see him mature with us.

You can tell he's loving it here, if we back him we'll do really well with him.

Perez was my player of the match tonight, he was involved all over the pitch and kept on his feet when in the past he would have gone down. If he'd played like that more often this season we'd have gained more points.

Mitrovic is frustrating but he put more into the game and offered a lot more than Murphy did while he was on.

Paully next to the banner.

A good 2nd half with 2 good goals and we deservedly won.

Perez has had a really good game.

That was a clear penalty.

Highlight of the game so far, Colback off.

This half is much better.
