Played brilliantly for most of that game.

 

Hey threw the kitchen sink and we wobbled, but we showed proper control at times.

Felt good to have a two goal lead for most of the game. Still annoyed Souček was let off the hook. And Bruno needs a day off to relax, yikes [emoji38]

 

Have a great rest of the evening, all of you :aww:

Not gonna lie, lads, genuinely grateful as fuck for that. We can still fuck this up,  but I truly am getting too old for this shit, and every little helps. Expecting Chelsea to get a new manager bounce on Tuesday, but praying we can squeak a draw to take the pressure off my coronary arteries.

Weird season at the bottom like. Not that many terrible teams. Wolves and West Ham in particular really don't seem that bad. Spurs have been extremely lucky.

Isn't 8th possible with a bizarre sequence of results?

Chelsea to not win against Tottenham and then draw with Sunderland. Brentford to lose to Liverpool and us to beat Fulham by a few goals gets it

Would hate to see West Ham relegated. They are usually the easiest 3 points we get during a season, as they were today. The two ~10 minute spells where they were pressing us with tempo & numbers we were struggling big time, yet they let us do our thing for the remaining 70+ minutes.

Chelsea lose to Spurs Tuesday and draw to Sunderland Sunday….Brentford lose away to Liverpool and i think we could be in Europa Cup….Villa need to lose also, or its the Conference Cup….I THINK

Excellent first 20 minutes.

 

After that it was a bit of a mixed bag again. Some good moments, some very nervy ones, and far too much loss of control for periods.

 

Anyway, unbeaten in three :thup:

Best of luck with the last lap of the season. I would be surprised if things don't go your way now.

Is Alonso coming in now rather than end of season? Reckon they'll win both remaining games if he is.

What made you think that?

 

Bruno & Willock both desperate to score.  Woltemade doing everything he could to get in the box and get his goal.

Wham have decent attacking talent, but shipped goals. Spurs comfortably the worst side we played this season, but we faced them at their lowest point, I guess.

Our record when we've gone (at least) two goals in front:

 

2022/23: P14 W13 D1 L0 (93% win rate)

2023/24: P12 W12 D0 L0 (100%)

2024/25: P13 W13 D0 L0 (100%)

2025/26: P6(!) W5 D1 L0 (83%)

 

*P7 W6 D1 L0 (86%)

 

If he can figure out a way for us to regularly capitalise on leads again, he will get us back on track. Easier said than done but that's what's been at the centre of our success under him - winning by force rather than grinding stuff out. 

 

*P8 W7 D1 L0 (88%)

Far better today. After the third, we should have cruised to a fourth but fair fucks, that was an unbelievable goal from Tatey and that seemed to give them a bit of belief to throw everything at us.

Woltemade's not going anywhere. He's only just worked out how to play in the PL.

Played so many games this year that I genuinely can’t remember what our results were against Spurs

Better, but still poor.

 

Chuffed for Nick and Osula, but the rest was pretty meh. Some great moves up the middle first half. Bruno was great until he got howked on the deck and lost his cool. 

 

I don't think Lewis Hall is match fit. He's deffo not himself.

Hall was rough. Think he faded during the season a bit.
