Toony Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Possible that Huddersfield will drop points again. I think Burton will be tough than a lot of people expect - they're going to come and be tough to break down and got a very good result at the weekend. People think just because they are Burton it'll be a walk in the park - they're far from the worst team in the league and have some players capable of doing something. Would have thought Brighton will beat Birmingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I wish I could care more about an English team. I used to like Leeds and Fulham (McBride, really). so I hope that they both keep up there forms and get into the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a shame we don't have a few more games but that run after January killed us. I expect a serious challenge next year with 1-2 wingers brought in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Looking at Sheffield Wednesday and Fulham's fixtures and form if you win every game you might actually make it. No room for a single slip up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As poor a season you've had it's all coming together now and a full pre-season under your belts you'll piss it. Said in the other thread but it's going to be an interesting one next season in the Championship. Another big one for us tomorrow, no excuse for not winning but it won't be easy, they will come and make it hard for us and frustrate the mong home fans. Win tomorrow and then we are 11 points away from the Premier League - assuming Huddersfield win every single game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Kodjia and Hogan...if they don't win the league next season then something is wrong. We're on a good run at the moment, beat Leeds 2-0. Lasse Vibe is on a good run of form and coming up with goals that we'd of got from Hogan, at the moment it seems to be him and someone new scoring which is great.

Bluebird Hewitt Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Meh. A bore draw by the sound of things but I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roversgirl Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Lost it in the first half with a poor performance. Second half we looked a lot better but we are still conceding goals for fun and lost two our centre backs to injuries last night which could rule them out for the season! Thankfully Preston, Wolves and Ipswich did us huge favours by beating Forest, Wigan and Bristol City and hopefully Newcastle will beat Burton tonight.

Honey Honey Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Something confusing and bizarre has just happened at St James. We got a penalty. Matt Ritchie scores it. Ref rules it out and gives a free-kick to Burton. Have the rules changed? Never seen anything like that in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roversgirl Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Sounds like encroaching. Harsh but rules are rules if there was an encroachment the officials spotted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it should have been retaken according to the rules. Gayle might have been in the box (Ritchie took the penalty). The ref spend 5 minutes trying to work out what the rules of the game are with the 4th official. Disgrace at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted April 5, 2017 Author Administrator Share Posted April 5, 2017 yeah as soon as I pressed send I realised encroaching is a re-taken penalty. Fuck knows what happened then. Did it hit the woodwork and then Ritchie touched it again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it hit the woodwork and then Ritchie touched it again? Nope. 4th official has now just said 3 minutes added on time. Another farce. The game was stopped for ages so they could try and remember the rules. Maybe we will find out what the refs reason was at half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skittles Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Really looking forward to hear the reasoning behind the decision... If there's no real reason.. surely there's a new spot opening on the job market for a championship level referee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Just seen the replay. There are 3 Burton players and 1 Newcastle player in the box before Ritchie kicks it. Definitely encroachment going on. However FA site says that should be a retake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll never hear the reasoning, referees do what the fuck they want and don't have to justify it like managers/players. One of the most bizarre things I've ever seen.

Honey Honey Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Apparently the ref has said Dwight Gayle committed a foul in the build up. Gayle is the player furthest away in this shot. I can't see a foul anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted April 5, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted April 5, 2017 Refs had an absolute shocker here by all accounts. Haven't got a clue what's made him think that was the right decision. Even if he thinks he's fucked it up, surely he knows he's missed the boat. What was going through his head when he decided to reverse it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
