    Exhausting game,but a point from the toughest of our remaining three isn't too bad.

    A win or draw on Tuesday and it's all set for a storming last day of the Season at PR.

    COYB!!!

    Absolutely gutted - had the chances to win that. Need something against Coventry and that’s not a gimme

    I’m not so pleasant about my own team, because they deserve all the s**t they get.

    If you mean Ben’s post, I wouldn’t read too much into it, if you check any of our matchday threads you’ll see he does that for every game, it’s a tradition.

    Great game tonight gents, enjoy the Premier League, you’ve deserved it this season. <ok>

    He’s been immense all season. Leave off. Let’s blame Kieffer Moore instead for not laying the ball off to Sarmiento for the winner. That was some game.

    What a cracking game of football between 2 really good sides. Yes, we could have come away with all 3 pts but they wanted it badly too.
    A few silly cockups, I still need convincing that the Hladky Morsy tappy give away possession yields more goals than it concedes! I agree with Spanish, in very tight defensive 'trap' if in doubt f....ng hoof it out!

    Well played both teams and I hope Hull go up too.

    We are now amazingly set up for a promotion victory on Saturday. The huge support deserve that. If that was on offer a year ago, I would have taken yer arm off.

    Just a point Tuesday please!

    Nope sorry, has too many major cock ups in him, nowhere near good enough if we go up!! Get promoted, then we need to buy a first choice keeper. Hladky doesn't command his box at all, he is a bit if a flapper!! Great with the ball at his feet most of the time but then has a mad moment and will pass to someone 5 yards away that is being tightly marked. Yes he is a good shot stopper but he is nowhere near an all round decent keeper!

    I woke up early in France, and am actually surprisingly confident.

    What does surprise me is we have only won one game in last 5 and yet its in our hands to get promoted!

    Morning all

    I actually watched the second half, cracking game. I told you Hull were the best team we have faced, they play some great football when they’re on it. When I said you guys wouldn’t get more than 4 points from the 2 games, Hull was my banker.

    Bit of a catch 22 as I wanted them to win, at the same time I don’t want to be facing them in the playoffs (I think you’ll beat Coventry). Two teams fighting for promotion and didn’t let the occasion get to them, Leeds, Southampton, WBA can all take a lesson from that game.

    Enjoy your day, that was a hard point, easy point or 3 against Coventry then playing relegated Huddersfield at home. You’ve one foot in the PL now <ok>

    Great game but like Spanish, I'm laying the blame for dropping points squarely at Hladky's feet.

    The decision to pass to Morsy that led to their first goal was just dumb when there were better options and the third goal punch out was weak when he could've quite easily caught it.

    I've been saying it for weeks now, his choice to punch a lot of the time has landed us in the **** quite often. It may be ok if he actually got some distance and direction on it, (although I'm not a fan of 'keepers that punch when the ball can be caught) but it normally doesn't go far and lands in the danger zone and right at an opposing players feet. I'd be scared starting with Vas in the Premier League, would be more confident with Walton, who just commands his box far better.

    Question to you all, for the final two games, Burns or Hutch on the right?

    Hutch just seems to come alive whenever he's out wide right, he does ok when left or in the 10 spot but he's just electric when he's on the right. I think we do the same as this game, start with Wes and have him tire the full back out and then put Omari out there to finish the job.

    Thought it was a good call playing Axel today, he kept their lad fairly quiet.

    Agree SD, especially as Burns not yet fully match fit. And Omari relishes his role at the moment.

    I'm going to stick up for Hladky,I've never agreed with throwing a single player under the bus for their mistakes.
    Our possession based game relies on the ability to play out confidently from the back and Vas has shown his worth on numerous occasions.(EFL goal of the Season being one small case in point!).
    We score far more from this system than we concede.Plus his shot stopping has often been spectacular and point saving/winning.I'll agree his command of the area on crosses isn't the best,but then if he was the total package would he be at PR?
