To be honest, given our exertions of late, and our patched up defence, a draw wouldn’t be the end of the world.

only because of who we are playing - a draw means they have no advantage over us and vice versa, with another game chalked off. I want us to win, obviously, but I don't think a draw would be a negative after the win on Wednesday.
They would still have their advantage of a game in hand (vs Millwall on 30th April) so a win would negate that, and the sooner we get the points on the board to secure our playoff spot the better.

of course but I still wouldn't get too upset by a draw.

I think after a few less than convincing performances we’ll be back to handing out a gubbing. Brizzle were dire when I saw them at Leeds earlier this season. 4-1.

Deano has won manager of the month. Great.

Be alright, we've decided it's fine.

I'd like to see some stats on the supposed curse. You would expect it to be bollocks but then recent experience in relation to villa is that it a thing.

I guess it would make sense if there was some reversion to mean effect, with managers coming off unbeaten runs that have to end sometime, or soft fixtures.

So the only one whose next game was against Bristol City lost? Thanks. That's reassuring (!)
