Gerard Posted 23 April Share Posted 23 April 6 hours ago, Tommy Fresh said: A draw tonight and It would still be in our hands though? A loss tonight and it's still in our hands but we would then need to win our last two from two to not rely on others. A draw still has it's merits as it's one point more but it only becomes useful if Leeds and Ipswich don't win their remaining games. For Southampton the equation is simple, they have a slim chance already of going up but a draw tonight is almost the same as a loss tonight for them, expect them to gamble if the game is tied going into the last 15 mins which should suit us as neither side will be happy with a point tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephy would have done the exact same had they played like that against us....which of course they didn't. I'm referring to our game against Southampton tonight, not our performance against Boro. We need our best player KDH to have a big game when the pressure is on, 2 goals will do nicely. Edited 23 April by trooky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been scandalous this season. He should a hands down be one of the best players on this league whether these injuries have been legitimate or not I don’t know, but the lads used a very decent player when he wants to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it genuinely baffles me that people still put so much belief in Praet. Never completed a full 90 for us and felt he's been with us for years and years. Twerks away for a move to Torino every 6 months yet it never materialises. Doesn't particularly look pleased every time I see his face. Give that dream up! His memory will be that assist vs Brentford in the Cup. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costello Posted 23 April Share Posted 23 April It's win or bust for them, which leaves space - rather than us passing side to side trying to break down a defensive 5 with a 4 in front just sat there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather we played a team coming here for a draw to be honest. It's only Boro and QPR that have come here with no intent to play and have taken points home. Hull, Ipswich and Leeds all came at us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lose tonight and still beat Preston and Blackburn and we're promoted. Jesus wept🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️. Draw tonight and Ipswich can’t overtake us with their game in hand. Lose and they can. Lose and it’s US that would potentially be under pressure from Leeds/Soton. Draw keeps the pressure away from us. im not saying we should play for a draw but if you offered me one right now I’d take it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sankey93 Posted 23 April Share Posted 23 April Win tonight and it’s done for me. Only thing is I can’t see it for some reason!
