On the bus back now. Fucking class Shelvey blowing kisses to their fans at full time. Back 5 immense.

Since we were last down, an average of 93pts win the league, and 87.5pts get you promoted. I think the chasing pack this time will mean that needs to be slightly higher, but we should have enough. Convinced if we're in the top two after Reading away on March 7th we will be fine. Going to be an interesting 4 weeks.

Thought the atmosphere was good for a Saturday 3pm game and also thought we thoroughly deserved the win. Diame and Yedlin were class and apart from 10 nervy minutes we put in our best performer for a while. Much needed with the games coming up.

These struggled big time against Leeds, who have loads of big, powerful lads. Diame should definitely play and I suspect he probably will. If McClaren sets them up like he set us up in away games we will be fine.

Fuck.

Feels like an absolutely huge game. In fact the next 3 look really tough on paper. If we can get out of the 3 with 7/9 points everything will be rosy again. FWIW; Leeds: Huddersfield (a), Cardiff (h), Bristol City (h) Reading: Ipswich (a), Barnsley (h) Brentford (h) Brighton: Brentford (a), Burton (h), Ipswich (h) We definitely have the toughest of all 3. Big 10 days.

That 9 game winning run, keeping clean sheets and generally playing well seems a lifetime ago. Worried is an understatement.

Time for Lascelles to be rested like. He's been wank for a while.

Palace bidding for some winger from Olympiakos and also Hogan from Brentford. Surely no room at the inn for Mr Townsend?

Being reported(tweeted) by Ed Aarons that Barrow is unlikely and this is still on.

Apparently Gouff is up top with Murphy. So who's wide left? Sounds like we're playing something like this: Sels Lascelles Hanley Haidara Yedlin Lazaar Anita Tiote Colback Murphy Gouff What? Haidara as a CB. Naa That's what it is. Probably lazaar left anita right. And full backs yedlin and Haidara makes sense. What arnt you getting? That's not the formation today. It's 3-5-2 or something similar.

Worrying home form really. Very worrying we don't have a clue what to do when going 1 down too. Champions don't lose 4 at home all season, never mind half way through. Think we will go up comfortably but have to fancy Brighton for the title as things stand. They just don't lose many games.

I have 122 points and this is after years of building them up, although I can sympathise with the OP, it is ok how it is. I do think Season Ticket holders should get some points for renewing/purchasing cup tickets. Also I think you should be rewarded on the away game - I didn't go but the few that went to Anzhi got just as many points as someone going to Sunderland 13 miles away. I suppose on the other hand where does it stop. Anyways fuck it, doesn't affect me at all so whatever.

Most nervous I've been in away end at the end there. Fuck me. Great win.

Going to this, can't wait. Unfortunately this means nailed on defeat.

Definitely Giggs as fuck. But this baldy cunt is the best player in the championship by a country mile. Ritchie is second. He was fucking tremendous today.

Do you live alone by any chance?

Probably a massive Giggs but what a little shit Olsson is. Always hated him since his Blackburn days but fuck me. What a prick.

Shelvey has been our most important player this season and without him we wouldn't be anywhere near the top in my opinion. Creates so much, always wants the ball. People need to realise he's not a DM in the sense that he will sit in front of the back four, it's just not his game. He doesn't shower himself in glory with his defensive work but that's not what he's on the pitch for. Let Hayden do that. He's probably won Championship player of the month and its thoroughly deserved in my opinion. An injury to Shelvey and we are relying solely on Ritchie for creativity.

I know it was slightly before, but it was his pathetic flick try and give it to Shelvey which gave them possession which led to the goal. Ritchie was a simple pass about 5 yards infront of him.

Would start Murphy and Perez.

Got a horrendous feeling about this game. Hope to see something similar to Derby away though.

Fancy the King to gift this lot 3 points today.

How do you know?

Fantastic night at his talk in tonight. Shame he fucked off out the back door like but a good night regardless.
