Aside from us having a better win percentage, better PPG, more clean sheets and an overall better GD under Tonda than we got over the season in 23/24, and the fact that RM actually admitted he didn't concern himself with the opposition too much and instead focused on his own game plan in numerous interviews during his tenure, yeah this is a top post 👍

The fact that we put up extra advertising hoardings along the touchlines to mitigate Oxford's threat from long throws (that they evidently complained about) would suggest we are indeed doing very detailed homework on upcoming opponents. The sheer fucking hubris of RM in believing this wasn't necessary and we just needed to believe in our own system 🤦

Probably a bit of recency bias here but Stewart's goal at Bramall Lane earlier this season is right up there with the best I have seen from the stands.

While conceding 20 more than Leeds who finished one place above us, and only two less than Birmingham who were relegated. Clean sheets are what's needed for automatic promotion. Baz had 11 all season in 23/24, while Leicester and Ipswich both got 15. Peretz has already managed 6 in 13 games since joining. I agree with you that there are other factors in our recent upturn in form. A settled back 4, an excellent RB in Bree, a better focal point in attack etc.. But the impact of having a better keeper who not only saves a lot more shots but commands his area, comes for crosses, shouts at and organises the back four (all things that Baz was hopeless at) cannot be underestimated.

Yesterday morning we were at 150/1 to finish in the top 2 on Bet365. This morning that has shortened to 100/1. Still can't see it though. Even if we win all our remaining games, Ipswich only need to maintain their current form of 2 PPG to still finish comfortably ahead.

7 minutes stoppage time. They can still save it!

Penalty to QPR

Fellows is never, ever going to score is he.

Deary me. That's a huge let off.

Hull 3-1 up now. Oh well.

He played the full 90 on Wednesday night. No surprise.

Another total non-performance from Archer. I know the records will show he got the assist for Shea, but he's been completely anonymous again.

Edozie and Stewart getting ready to come on.

Far too sloppy and pedestrian now.

1-1 now 😔
