It always strikes me when I watch the league 1 highlights just how bad the defending is in our league! At least half of the goals are due to defensive mistakes. While we aren't quite reproducing the free flowing attacking football of earlier in the season, our defense is very very good compared to everyone elses. I can't remember them making many mistakes. In Wiggins and Solly, we surely have the best full backs.

Fatigue maybe? No side keeps up performances like that all season. Look at City.

We'll get a decent mention all right, the first team in the football league to get promoted!
It's actually been very reassuring that every time you see coverage of this league, it's always been about the battle between the Sheffield clubs for second place.
i had managed not to shed any tears today until i saw the shots of the players coming back out afterwards and Chrissy's interview. What an absolute legend.
Despite having defended them I really can't understand why they wouldn't put us on first. I suppose it would give away the Wednesday result, but then again they often do so in the intro anyway.

Looks like he will be losing his disability allowance!!
Would that be the 3-1 or the 4-0, Steve?!

Take that FLS!
Could be wrong though.
Just have to hope West Ham go up then everyone else might get some more!
