    Tried to ignore it, gone through the “autos is over process,” gone through the “save your money for Play-offs process” but I can’t shake the “What if” moment and not being there. So fuck it… I’m in 😄

    If we had a realistic chance of going up, i'd have gone for sure but would have been rushing to get back at night. I also have that nagging "what if" moment. 

    Wouldn't be the same, but if we do get the result and i'm not there, i'll still happily celebrate in Manchester. I'd just make certain to be there when we complete the journey and go up to the prem

    Frustrating as it is, if that had been a winner for utd chalked off, we'd have loved it! 😍 

     

    Oh it would have been funny no doubt. I've absolutely nothing against it if it was used for what it was meant to be used for - clear and obvious.

    If lines need drawing, it isn't clear or obvious

    "Professional" squatters I heard them referred as.

    Really does need upgrading to a criminal offence.

    Then send them to Rwanda instead! :)

     

    If they are professionals, they should pay tax rather than get benefits

  4. Didn't want to go into the play offs on the back of 3 home draws or worse so job done.

    Glad to see Charles get 75 mins too. Still looks rusty so same again next week will hopefully sharpen him up a bit.

    Collins is sending us up though. Scores from nothing. A tight play off game, that makes a huge difference

    Having a shitter of a weekend already so hopefully a win yoday whilst I spend 90 mins away from the world!

    I was told that Charles and Big Dan are injured again, and that JDB is now also out, hope this was someone winding me up.

    Don't think they're injured again, just not 100% ready to start

    I've gone slightly mad and just done a £5 bet builder:

    - Whites to win 5-0

    - Cambridge to win 1-0, Kachunga goal.

    Whether I'll be happier with going into the last game with a real chance of going up, or the £9.5k in my bank, who can say?

     

    It was looking a realistic bet until the Kachunga goal bit

  7. Watching Lainey Wilson in Manchester tomorrow night, she's a tidy wench as well as being bloody brilliant. Quite happy i'm not missing a promotion party too

    Surely every team could do a montage of sitters and sloppy goals though

    Absolutely - but I bet pompey and Derby have far fewer sloppy goals against

    But we're not 3rd because of goals scored it's because of goals conceded. Look at the goals against column compared to Portsmouth and Derby. Take just the Wigan and Derby games - if you can't win those then don't lose them and they were 2 really soft goals to concede.  There has been so many examples this season with Shrewsbury another.

    The old saying - defences win titles. Never been more accurate.

    Yes, the clip on here shows some sitters we've missed. I'd hate to see a montage of very soft, sloppy goals we've conceeded

  10. Didn't think Baxter could have done anything with the first or Pompey's goal tbh.

    The 2nd last night went through a lot of bodies so he'll have seen it late for sure. 

    Doubt Coleman would have done any better, doubt Trafford would have either if he was still with us

    Happy with the job Evatt has done and wouldn’t mind him for another year if we fail to go up. Stability is an underrated commodity in football. He’s a good manager, not yet shown himself to be excellent though. But do you want to risk starting from scratch with a new man? 

    I feel he Evatt needs this promotion for the fan base’s support in general. He’s had 3 seasons to build a team capable of League 1 promotion and too often we’ve been lacking in important games and moments. Some bad luck yes - but when it’s happening consistently it is difficult to keep taking it. The Wigan defeats, the Blackpool loss, the Derby loss. 

    Dont think last season was our “time” to go up. Seemed written in the stars for Sheffield Weds, but this year we’ve had an easier league and Evatt has built this team with substantial funding and backing.
     

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he walked before he was pushed should we fail to go up.

    Spot on

  12. Shrewsbury were everything which pisses me off about league 1.

    Time wasting from the kick off, taking an age to come back after scoring and rolling round like they were playing best man falls.

    We really need to find a way of beating shit like this. We need to find a way of being mentally tougher away or we end up like Oxford - a fluffy team who are nice to watch but going nowhere. Derby and Pompey have found ways to win ugly.

    Dion didn't look fit to me at all last night, hope he was just feeling his way back in to it.

    Maghoma our best player by a mile - possibly his best game for us

    Might as well finish 4th for the Saturday away leg 

    I'd rather finish 4th now - the 5th place team isn't likely to go into the game on the back of a strong run.

    We'll beat any of them though

    Not mentioned anywhere, i dont think, first half collins got the merest touch on a cut back and it denied maghoma the chance of the match

    Just seen that, didn't realise just how good a chance it would've been for Maghoma.
