It's fascinating to see the real person behind the tabloid persona.
Bloody amazing that he achieved what he did with all the issues that went against him. And just heartbreaking when he said his mother never went to watch him perform. You can see the sad little boy in his face.
On a personal note I really don't want either Peterborough or Barnsley to go up. It seems like we always play badly against them. That three match run when we lost to Posh in the cup as well as the league and I went to the cup and the home game still haunts me.
The Ismael Barnsley side penning us in for what seemed like hours also gives me nightmares. Come on Oxford (v Posth) and Bolton (v Barnsley).
Courtesy of Sky Cook& Clarke -Salter (although they spelt it Slater) are the third most effective starting CB partnerships at 0.82 goals conceded, behind Rodon and Ampadu at Leeds 0.3 and McNally and Rose at Stoke 0.67.
Nice little interview with a QPR fan from before last night's match (I think he might be the son of the Moroccan fan who wears the blue hat because he talked in one of the earlier games about the famous QPR fan from Morocco being his dad).
The presenter who's not a QPR fan absolutely raving about us.
Bet365 have both us winning and the draw at 5/2 and Stoke winning at evens.
Quite surprised as Stoke have only won twice since 1st December, against Rotherham and Birmingham, both away from home. They’ve also shipped eight goals in the last two games, admittedly five of those against Leicester. Not great for the morale though.
Do the bookies always favour the home team despite form or is it just they think we’re awful?
I know it's been said a few times but I thought it deserved its own thread. Our fans have been pretty dogged in still turning up and largely cheering on the team despite the absolute dregs they've been served up since October last year.
I couldn't quite believe the turn out for home games given the fact we were hardly scoring a goal per match, let alone getting any points at home.
As for the away fans (and I made WBA and Middlesbrough this season so far so made a bit of an effort) they have been magnificent as I've heard them louder than the home fans even when they were almost totally outnumbered, as at Preston.
Another good thing is the number of younger fans we've had recently, guys in their teens and 20s really supporting the team, home and away, which is positive seeing as we had seemed to be an ageing crowd for quite a while.
Anyway shout out to you all and to anyone shelling out for a stream who can't get to matches.
I'm going to Middlesbrough on the supporters coach on Saturday but am planning to stay up there and go to Newcastle straight from the ground for a couple of days.
I was wondering what I can do with my suitcase? Any ideas about what you have done in similar situations?
Also, how long before the game are we likely to arrive as I've never been on the coach before?
I know we all know this but it still astonishes me the difference in how much teams are put together for between long term Championship teams and those who have been in the Premiership.
Sheffield Utd's team last night (incl subs that went on the pitch) cost nearly £72 million. It's still gobsmacking for me. I wonder what their wages would be on top of that.
Two more assists for Chair today, which makes five for the season in nine matches. For comparison Ebs in his last season for us got eight and fourteen goals, which is about one in three. Chair has three in nine.
Just wondering if anyone has been caught up in fines for this? I believed I'd set up autopay last week and I noticed today that I've got a email validation in my junk mail for my account which prompted me to contact them. I am convinced that I entered my bank details for the auto pay because I would know that that's the only way for them to take payment. They're saying that I only registered my car and not the autopay. I can't prove it but they can't prove that I didn't either. I've notified them before any penalty notice but outside the three day's grace for payment I'm assuming I'll have to pay the fine but anyone experienced this?
Swansea. Middlesbrough, Norwich, WBA and Huddersfield have all got one point or fewer. Can't see most of those fighting for relegation at the end of the season. A reminder that it's a very, very long season and we're bound to have ups and downs.
The comms team team did a fantastic job in creating a good atmosphere with Chloe, Martin Rowlands, Mark Prince and the Bowles family.
It's a b*gger to lose: Richards until October; Armstrong unknown; Clarke-Salter unknown. Roberts apparently in contention for Tuesday, which is good. I'd particularly of liked to see more of Richards as he looked quite promising last week.
There were signs that the team spirit and belief was starting to seep back. Goals are a huge part of that. We only scored 16 goals in 18 games from the beginning of Feb to the end of the season (if I've counted right) - 0.89 per game. We scored three today, which is bound to lift the crowd and the players.
Is it just me that's really hacked off by two of our best players being taken out by our rival teams. Willock last night and Seny by Blackburn. Both injuries changed the game, as Willock looked really dangerous. It also meant both matches that we used an early sub which limited our options.
I know sh*t happens but it's really p*ssing me off. Particularly Willock as teams are targeting him and he's not getting the protection. I love Warbs' integrity but I really think he should be moaning in public and to refs about Willock being hacked down so much.
Ridiculously close from fourth to thirteenth. Only eight points separate us from Preston. Only two points between us and Luton in seventh. Just a couple of matches is going to decide it. It's not usually this close surely between fourth and mid table?
Last season there were 18 points between Brentford in fourth and us and Bristol City on the same number of points in twelfth/thirteenth after 36 matches
