    Disagree. I'm sure Norwich felt invulnerable at home before tonight. Losing but still confirming promotion may play into our hands, especially as they have had a very hard game tonight.

    The odds are still against us but, personally, I don't think Norwich losing tonight means they will be harder to beat on Tuesday. If anything, I think the opposite is true. It's all guesswork though!

    Norwich very lucky not to be down to 9

    We need 5 points to take Bournemouth out of the equation if they win all their remaining games

    Hope you're right. Just thought there was sufficient doubt that it might have been accidentally and therefore a yellow.

    Everyone has their knee/shoulder/buttocks iced these days!
    Not a sign that he's gammy unfortunately.

    Officials are awful. 2nd goal flagged off when on. McClean not sent off for a blatant second yellow and now a 3rd goal clearly offside.

    Reading are looking totally fecked now. After such a brilliant start to the season, not even making the playoffs has got to hurt.

    Farke has called it now and taken their best players off.

    What a wasted opportunity today has turned out to be. Swansea and Brentford messing up simple home games. Norwich losing. We could have been within striking distance of winning the league.

    Choking, bottling idiots.

    Brentford will probably be thinking the same having dtawn 5 of their last 6 games plus having a game in hand.

    They could be almost up but now joint 4th.

    I don't disagree, but all 4 of us probably feel the same way (Norwich probably care less)

    We will not get promotion. I just don't see it happening.
    Bournemouth have come up trumps again. Ok, they played against 10 men for 73 mins.
    They have an easy run in.
    Norwich and Bournemouth to go up.
    I await the elite members moaning at me.
    Let's just see if we blow it big style.

    Odds on us scoring three on Tuesday?

    They are in form but have Brentford and Millwall so like us will be a test for them potentially.

    Or is it only hard for us ?

    They’re not.

    Yes, unfortunately it would be quite tedious to have to caveat every in game comment with the statement that a red card could completely change the game.

    If you are more of the glass half full sort of person, you could say today could have been a lot worse for us despite us playing ****.

    Our rivals have not taken advantage of our poor performance so we can still make this right. It's still very much in our own hands.

    Bournemouth will finish second. Its suddenly so looking so obvious how this season will pan out.

    I never really understand why people bother commenting during the course of a game, other than our own.

    Football changes so quickly.

    I suppose it’s as pointless as commenting on someone commenting on the game.

    Its still in our hands folks

    I suppose so, yes.

    Anyway, it’s been a tough day fir us all. Hopefully things will look more positive soon.

    We have been very poor since the international break.
    I think we will blow it. Bournemouth will sneak into the second automatic promotion spot. I don't see them throwing it away.
    There are always teams who are in form or those who throw it away.
    Guess which one we are?
    I can only see us picking one point from either the Millwall or Swansea game. It will not be enough.

    If Bournemouth beat us to second place then I want Xisco sacked before the playoffs.

    They don’t have anything to throw away? They’re fourth.

    I’m a pessimist and it’s far from certain, but you did tip us for relegation for a while, so your level of pessimism needs to be taken with a large pinch of salt.

    So you saying Brentford will beat us but lose more games than Bournemouth meaning the the Cherries get 2nd?

    Whist getting more points than Swansea who might beat us too.

    I am not sure that could happen ?

    I posted in the Munoz thread, I think that would be a genuine possibility.

    Effectively 2 wins away from promotion, yet it's never felt so far...

    Muff are the biggest bunch of *********s. Honestly do they get taught it? The amount of *********ry in that game was insane.

    I hope so. Should be sacked after today, getting outsmarted by a genuine tramp.
