    Think chapo as still something to offer personally. Crafty bugger, like him or not he’s still something to offer this team or he wouldn’t be considered. Strange today that Mowatt never got a mention first half by our commentary team. Second half different,every 5 mins.
    Why? He knew he had to up his game. VAL half time.?
    Anyway we’re in there on merrit. COME ON YOU REDS.

    I personally don’t think we have enough to finish the job. By that I specifically mean I don’t think we’re the 3rd best team in the Championship. I also don’t mean that as a criticism. It’s been a phenomenal season that’s exceeded all my expectations. I won’t be anything but full of praise, regardless of how the playoffs pan out. However I just don’t see a PL team, when I watch us week in week out. I see bottomless work rate, immense team ethic and players punching well above their weight. Which is awesome. But I also still see lack of composure, too much poor decision making and a style of football that I just really struggle to get behind. If we manage to somehow pull it off, it will for me, be the biggest achievement in our history.

    I think it’s obvious that Chaplin and Victor are back up players at the most and will probably end up division one players next season. If you could combine them both you might have a decent champ striker.

    Don’t worry, we are just lulling teams into a false sense of security

    That was in the 2nd minute. If you add up the playing time since, including added time it is well over 180 minutes.

    He’s just explained what he meant - over 90 minutes with the stoppages v Rotherham and all the Preston game.

    Yes, but generally when you say 180 minutes you'd mean you hadn't scored in two matches.

    You are quite correct Helen. We are both straying into the nether world of a politician. It is my view that we are both correct but my point was and is that we are not creating chances which means we have fewer opportunities to see core goals. It only becomes an issue when we start the play offs.
