Doesn’t buffer or anything, I’ve got used to it not being HD and I’ve even become curiously endeared to the jock commentating. It just naturally runs behind as a stream compared to a live broadcast. Same thing happens if you watch Sky Sports through Now TV. 

All streamed sport is the same when games are on Amazon they are a similar amount behind. I have bet 365 open during game and we are always 90 secs behind, I try not to watch it on 365, but when we are holding on it is hard not to look.

Just seen goalcam of the goals. Thought their keeper got quite close to Doyles pen but was nowhere near it seeing it close up. Cracking pen

Half a job Harry  😂😎

I'm not proposing we play for free kicks just that when we get one we shoukd have a plan ... a practised plan ... for how to use it. At present it's like we simpky punt it in with no plan, & precious little hope.

Corners. I long for the days of Walker, Stubbs, McGinley when we had a plan to aim for the player at the near post who flick headed it to the back post & in came McGinley

Them were the days Doc. Bruce was a detail man and had it all planned out. Plans even spelled the star centre forward's name right.

Just watched it.... That's a shocker from the ref for the sending off 😂

You could say the same about our awarded pen 😄

Lee was instrumental in that win, a great signing that has turned our season. The few Sheffield Wednesday lads who came on here shortly after signing him we’re spot on.

No, not THIS

we have won 10 in 12 and people want us to rip up the fucking playbook

We play a style that suits the players

We don’t play at the same tempo all game and haven’t in those 12 games 

Nobody is saying rip up the playbook but you’re severely deluded if you think IE is happy with us when we aren’t stretching them by moving it more quickly and with purpose. 

Doesn't have to be black and white

Maintaining the tempo for 90 minutes is impossible. The quote Casino was disagreeing with was saying 'get it wide and get in the box' as well as play with pace. Which unless we have someone to hit in the box is pointless. Instead we play the ball through midfield and then work into the box , sometimes from wide, sometimes centrally but it is all measured not just 'get it in the mixer'.

Of course doing it quickly stretches the opposition. I think the point The Black pudding boy was making is that we keep playing as we are and look to do that better not change the system. 
I hate to use the comparison as we are miles away from them in quality but watching Man City even they at times drop the tempo but they stick to a system.

ok I concede Cas was arguing a diff point maybe 


but Nobody is suggesting that we do it for 90 mins

IE’s interview says he was disappointed we didn’t do it in the first half yesterday. The Manager agrees with my point. That’ll do for me

Our current line-up doesn't lend itself to get it out wide and chuck it in the mixer, admittedly, but when we do get it out wide and we've men in the box, that delivery just HAS to be better.

I've lost count of the number of crosses, corners, free kicks etc that don't get past the first man/the wall etc.

Evatt even said this weekend about repetition being the key to improvement. If that's the case, all our "wide" players should be having half an hour a day crossing balls until they can get it right more often.

He checks WW and reads your posts before doing his pre and post match interviews. Where would we be without Jules? 😅

I agree. We actually score quite a few goals from wide areas but rather than crosses they tend to be from the by line then pulled back along the deck towards the D for someone to run onto.

Just a shout out for Doyle for our first..controlled a ball that was absolutely twatted at him on the half way line brilliantly and played it across the field to leave John I think with acres of space to run into. I don't particularly want to see him that deep but at least when he is he tends to make things happen.

Yeah, ref wont be looking back on those with any pride.  Its like there's been a real change in the attitude of refs towards us since the spate of sendings off (Delaney, Williams, MM).  I think we're about level on decisions now.

It's almost as if the refs have been told to go easy on us after all the bum decisions we had earlier in the season.

Obviously it's set to continue for the rest of the season
