One of the most common errors on here.

Pedant

Exactly :tup: I don't understand this loyalty to players like Bamford and Meslier who have both consistently under performed for at least three seasons in a row. Are we expecting a miracle turn round to happen? Cos it's not gonna. But Farke is not the first one to put misplaced faith in Meslier and...

DF hasn’t suddenly become a bad manager but surely he and his coaching staff should shoulder some of the blame, how can we take over 140 corners without scoring ? How can we be so poor at dead ball situations? Where was our midfield on Friday ? These things can be addressed in training, instead of ...

I think the home defeat to Blackburn was a real killer. Psychologically you could see the impact on the players faces when they scored late on.

We miss Bamford's play & goals when he goes on a lean run or is unavailable, our four flair players Summerville, Rutter, Gnonto & James are happier when they are able to link up with Paddy, even Firpo misses him when he provides sublime crosses into the box, to find our No.9 is not there to...

I agree, though the lack of goals from elsewhere on the pitch is tactical. How many times are players in a good position with acres of space, only to pass to Geo who is crowded out by several players? It's obviously a tactic they've been told to do. We got away with it in the winning run, but that ...

How did Farke discover Archie Gray when he was on the bench in the PL at 15? Also Summerville scored in 4 consecutive PL games last season so how did no other manager use him? He was a regular last season. Most of the players look "better" as they're playing in a weaker league or at their...

93 points is now the maximum. Not looking good but at least we'll finish above Southampton and who know we might even still finish 2nd. Aye - cannot rule out any of the potential endings just yet. The end of this season has not lacked for drama and very likely there is plenty more to come for us.

Aye- par for the course.

I stopped getting involved in ratings. There is definitive bias attached to many scores.

I used to get truly perplexed with the scoring so for my own sanity I rarely look at the thread these days.

I wonder if web footed spear throwers are ancestors from the lost tribe of Atlantis.

Gray without a second thought. He has struggled for consistency of late, but he is not the only one. Heritage has nothing to do with his impact this season. Just turned 18 and has made himself a permanent fixture in the team.

Sorry but opposition fans seeing us playing the "oh dear look how weak our squad is line" would pish themselves laughing. The QPR fan who was on here or the Millwall fan ask them if they'd like Dan James on the bench or Piroe or Conor Roberts or even Charlie Cresswell. The Ipswich goalie ...

OB - tbh I should OF picked up on your humour as a fellow satirical acolyte. Incidentally it is very difficult to use OF instead of HAVE - spell check / predictive script goes into a tail spin. As you alluded to the result had me on edge with was added to by the woe merchants emerging from literary ...

i mean at this rate, im worried we might even slip out of playoff places
are we mathematically locked in for play offs?

I have written and deleted about 10 different answers to your question.

But for simplicity’s sake the answer is Yes.

If Hull win many arachnids sharing a dwelling with a Leeds fan will sigh with relief for at least another day or so that they do not add to the ever growing number of legless torsos.

Hopefully, this is a watershed moment for the team. There are not many who played last night that have suffered a sobering punch in the face , which represents the stark reality of getting played off the park wearing our shirt. Firpo has and for me he was the only player who outwardly displayed a se...

What happened to you? Did the pe ny drop finally. This team is only capable of playing in the championship take away 1/2the team like gnonto,summerville,rutter,gray,and a couple more then you're looking at only fir for league 1 You would be a useful companion to fight alongside in the trenches. Spo...

Do our fans really understand what Bamford brings to the team. His movement rags defenders around and creates gaps for the midfield. He chases players down and causes problems. Piroe fell back into the midfield they were 30 yards further forward straight away. It's also our first battering all seas...

Personally, for the most part I avoid following other team’s results. After Ipswich play their two games in hand we are either still in with a shout or not. The emotional investment required just following Leeds games is more than enough for me. What will be will be is the way I look at it. Although...

Gray is a passenger in midfield. If he wasn't homegrown with that heritage it would have been said by now. But emotional investment and all that. Plus Farke knows selling him would make life easier next season. Him not playing his role left holes in our MF which they exploited even before the first...
