Just had a quick look at the table and a browse through our results.  The following home games really stand out as poor performances and results:

Middlesbrough 0-0
Brentford 0-0
Sheff Weds 1-2
Sheff Utd 2-2 (when were 2-0 up and Jedinak had a nightmare)
Millwall 0-0
Preston 1-1 (bit lucky to get a draw on the night but could have won it at the end)

We can't afford many more of those type of results now and they could still end up costing us.   

You missed Hull, opening game of the season.

Brentford and Millwall were both better on the day than we were and a draw was the most we deserved. The Boro game is the big one for me as we should have taken advantage of playing against 10 men, Then we cleared our own shot off the goal line and then we had a player unjustly sent off.

I think some of the aways balance it all out. There was nothing between Boro and ourselves in the away game yet we got the break and the 3 points. Both Sheffield teams had the better chances yet we walked away with the 3 points both times.

The vast majority of us would have predicted before the season started that Jedi and Appleyard would miss a fair few games. Kod and Grealish have been the tough ones.
Really?  Aren't we beyond that daft name now for our captain who has been impeccable all season? 

No.
Yes exactly NO.

Some people who don't like John Terry decided they couldn't bring themselves to use his name on an internet forum so instead use the hilarious moniker 'Gerald Appleyard.'  I would have hoped we were beyond that now given his fantastic service to us, but unfortunately it seems not.

I am pretty sure the man himself wouldn't give a fuck either way so there is no need for you to be so defensive about it.

Turn it in, you crank. I post on lots of threads on here. I get that you don't like the Terry thing. Others still don't like him. Who cares? It's a bit silly when you leap to martyrdom though when all I am suggesting is I don't care either way and don't see it as something to get your knickers in a twist about.

Can you post on the Snodgrass thread next please. I will see you over there.....

Ah well. In something we can all agree on, I spent two pages worth of effort for the next H+V taking the piss out of those bitter Olbiyun wankers.

I guess it's the self appointed moderating that sticks in my mind.

I guess it's the self appointed moderating and aggressive style that sticks in my mind.

Aggressive? Have you read anything you have ever posted? Self appointed moderation? I don't think that is true either, just like your daft stalker comment. What I don't understand is why you immediately jump on the defensive and take just about every opinion to the contrary to yours as some kind of personal attack. It is nuts, quite frankly.

You can hate me. Or my opinions. Or my posting style. Or what I write in the fanzine. Or my dress sense. Or the fact I have a big nose. It doesn't make one scintilla of a difference to my life.

But put the "woe is me, I am being picked on" horseshit back in the laptop.

I'm not sure how your criticising posters for saying "Gerald Appleyard" is any less a case of "self-appointed moderating" than CheltenhamLion's criticising one poster for being overly-defensive about Gerald Appleyard.
