Had a power cut this afternoon, didn't have any data coverage. Just seen the L***s result now. Fucking typical.

The bastards are sneaking back to the promotion contenders area.

Fuck off cov you twats.

Huge result for Leicester, if they can hold on for the win. And for Southampton.

Sadly they couldn't.

Pro Leicester, or anti Ipswich?

Both.

We can't kill teams off if our life depended on it. So frustrating we always hold onto 1-0 leads and time and time again let opposition score in the last few minutes. Just bloody score another and stop twatting it round the back in the final 10 mins which just invites more pressure.

Huddersfield 1 up late on at QPR. But they got lucky, there looked to be an offside in the lead up to the goal.

You'll be happy enough with that result at Loftus Road @West Yorks Owl?

Yes m8

Although not happy Darren Moore has been sacked today, especially as we play Town on Saturday.

Apparently, the owner had described the game at Loftus Rd as a must win. That late equaliser basically sealed his fate. That sacking by you lot last year was a strange move.

You're owners don't understand timing do they?

Southampton took a chance playing all those youngsters last season.
It obviously didn't work out but they seem to be clicking now.
Great to see that they currently have 5 of our young players, plus they sold Lavia.

That's Chancer for you m8, yesterday was 9 years since he took over us and for me we are in a far worse position. When he came we were a lower end championship team, nearly a decade later we are a team that is bottom champ/top League 1, multiple transfer embargos, FFP Breach, Points deduction and we no longer own the stadium.

Still we got a new scoreboard :)

He understands nothing m8, he's a petulant manchild that lives off the family money.

Does it suggest a lot about the quality of the Championship that Dan James is ripping it to shreds?

You always here the tired comment of "the quality of the league is rubbish this year" but when was it not, when Newcastle & Brighton were promoted in 16/17?

You could argue the gaps between top & bottom are bigger than the PL? The budget, squad worth/cost (+ parachute payments) between say Leicester City & Rotherham United is huge.

It is what it is.

I'm interested to see how Leicester, Southampton and Leeds do next season depending on who goes up

I'll be interested to see how Burnley, Sheffield United and Luton do the season after that one when they go back up to the Premier league.

We’ll be back down imo unless a good sporting director comes in. Not convinced of Farke’s credentials up there either.
