    Having got back late and not having the best day out given toe result, I’ll take the point as disappointing as it is. We were not guaranteed promotion or play off material from the start so to be where we are is a bonus.

    Many shouting we had secured a play off place to early. Subs perhaps might make sense when we have players available to pick up the points that we should be going forward as automatic promotion was gone months ago.

    Time will tell.

    Our play off spot is not in doubt, performances recently are.

    We need a couple of wins, both of which will come in the next week in my opinion.

    Once again as the season comes to a completion the players have ‘fallen off a cliff’
    It happens season after season, the two fullbacks defensively have always been poor but now are appalling, Kipre’s form of late has dipped alarmingly, as for Bartley the arm waving and gesturing is increasing,
    Yokuslu looks knackered, Wallace apart from the goal was anonymous yet again.
    Really poor performance yet again, is it that the training seasons are too involved?
    Compared to Stoke we looked as though all of our players were over 60
    None of the current crop of players are anywhere near Premiership quality, Burnley and Sheffield Utd are bad but they would beat us, a total clear out needed in the summer.

    The point is we are not at the start and Lai did one weeks ago. Nobody can blame Lai for these recent performances or blame him if we fail to get in the play offs. To blow such a fantastic advantage now would be solely down to the players and Carlos.

    Bit like a Sales environment - you don't look at the past but only the present. Anyone can beat Rotherham and Sunderland are absolute garbage now ( says mate who follows them everywhere ). We need to start playing decent football on the front foot!

    I completely agree al. Get at Rotherham and Sunderland from the word go. Basically, ‘go for the jugular!’

    Spot on Bomber buddy.
    I nervous to say, but Rotherham should be a comfortable win (!?!) but Sunderland will be a different kettle of fish.

    It will be even more nervous Prando regardless of these two home games - you would think 6 easy points - if Norwich and Coventry both match our results. Then it’s Leicester and Sheffield away 😡
