That's not to bad for Reading to be fair.

1570 happy cidereds at Martin O'Neil's homecoming party.

So glad you spoilt the red dogs and Martins party. You are on a good run at the moment, maybe the under dog for the play offs. Thought you played well at Pride Park this season as well.

I like Forest and MON.

Surely you wanted a draw, far better result for yourselves

No way always want Forest to lose, Down to how we play, if we are going to make the playoffs, looking at the fixtures, we should make it, surprise how Villa have fallen away. But as always in the championship it will go down to the wire. Think there are plenty of twists and turns yet to come. No team are running away with it, like Wolves did last season.

Well that's just fucking stupid ain't it, surely your own teams fortunes come before forest losing, so many football fans want their rivals to lose despite it not benefitting them. When Wednesday beat Boro at Xmas I was well pleased, they nearly beat West Brom too which I also would have been delighted with.

Not stupid at all, it's in Derbys own hands if we end up top 6, and I think Forest are a bigger danger than Bristol City to challenge us for top 6 anyway, so I was pleased Forest lost for 2 reasons 7 points away from top 6 now, and City spoiled Martins first day in charge, so win, win,

You keep thinking that way eh '71. We're no threat.

Do not get me wrong, any of the top 12 can make the playoffs, just saying I think Forest, could have more chance, but this is the championship and anything can happen, it's all to play for, that's why I love this division, so hard to predict.

I agree with most of that '71 but Forest were very poor yesterday so I can't see them bothering the top 6 on that showing. Weimann had a perfectly good goal disallowed for offside when he was onside by yards plus Pantillimon made quite a few excellent saves.
I appreciate they're decimated defensively but I saw nothing yesterday to suggest they're top 6 material with all respect to them.
Weimann celebrated our goal with the Forest supporters yesterday by the way, wasn't that nice of him?
We'll just keep on plugging away and see where we end up. The beauty of our situation is that, all but the most rose tinted City fans, have no expectation of promotion. It would be nice, don't get me wrong but we don't expect it like some clubs do.
'Under the radar', just how we like it.

Really? The way Johnson was being completely hounded a month ago despite being 12th-14th suggests otherwise..

In my view Aaron, the complaints were never about results, more about entertainment. That's what I think people were griping about anyway.
Home performances, while the results have been decent, have been pretty boring at times to be fair. Away from home it's excellent.
Nobody is saying it now though seemingly so all is good (apart from on OTIB ).
Anywhere above last season is progress for me.

Well done Wiemann, glad you gave those red dogs a bit back yesterday, and if Forest are looking poor that's music to my ears.

Sounds like us under Mick.

Good following that.

Chelsea sold out next week, fucking stupid kick off time.

I'm not too bothered, prefer 6 o'clock than an early kick off, gives us a good few hours on the beer and we should be home before midnight.

Buy one get one free I believe. Compare it to what Blues took there midweek last season when they had 4700 and were not doing nowhere near as well as what Albion are. Saying that at £35 and on tv I can see why a few didn’t bother.

It’s a poor following but unfair to compare it to that. Brum’s game last season was absolutely massive, relegation 6 pointer.

Wasn't it cheap tickets too?

 

[villa loyal]

Yes it was £10 tickets but still a cracking following from blues. Ok it was a relegation six pointer, but Albion are up there challenging top two. Blues travel better anyway.

Can we add the 1,900 sat watching a beam back in the Leeds Banqueting Suite too?!!

Boro have given us 3,000...the first batch (80%) sold out in 8 minutes this morning to STH's.

No brainier is it really. Leeds are doing well and more fans are interested. Noticed one or two on FB I know all of a sudden are posting Leeds shit every 5 seconds. Great when you’re doing well. Can never fault your away support anyway.

 

[blademan89]

1700 sold for Norwich on Saturday, thought we'd have sold out but at £35 I suppose a few will think fuck em. We took around 1800 last year in a less important game when it was £25. No trains again too this week.
