Not a sheep and I carry many frustrations about the club, OUR club including the inability to kick on and maybe sit longer at the top table or enjoy a day in the sun at the end of a cup run. I'll take the pi55 out of our poorer players over the years and rue or celebrate many decisions made on and off the pitch. But I have always viewed the club like any other form of long-form entertainment. A soap opera running for 121 years, a long-running comedy series, a set of novels, albums from an established musician. It cannot possibly achieve and maintain excitement or high levels of expectation all the time. Some chapters will be boring or establish the story, some episodes will be 'fillers'. This is the risk you take with investing your time and money into something perpetual. If you want impossibly high levels of expection (and the inversely proportionate levels of frustration that come with every defeat or draw or 'failure' to win a cup or league) than naff off and glory hunt in the North West or London. In reality, protests for a club of our size achieve very little and, as has already said on this thread, what do you actually want? Where are the queue of investors? Or the big name players and coaching staff waiting to come here? It all needs money, a lot of money. So this is the reason we aren't Brighton or Brentford or Newcastle or [insert name of current flavour of the month here]. I like being able to go to Carra Rud, experience joy, disappointment, win, lose or draw and have something to discuss in the pub later. The Championship is frustrating but we can compete in it. The Premier League...no thanks. The odds are now inpossibly stacked against anyone not in the billionaire club and so many clubs' supporters head into each season hoping there are three worse clubs by the time May comes around. The club is what it is. Give your old bedsheets to animal or homeless charities if you don't want them. Waving them today won't achieve a single constructive thing. Time for a couple of pints before the match now. Coach and Horses or Nelson anyone?

First pub I drunk in - Pottergate - Toby Bitter. Aged 18 of course. Ish.

Steptoe could've scored plenty tonight.

Sounds like a line from some kind of pensioner p0rn flick

Bizarre seeing Mug Man & Shakey involved in such a high profile match after their efforts on our sidelines.

Great game for the neutral. But I'm not. Cheating in '85 will never be forgotten.

Nice one Albert.

I can't think of bedsheets without remembering this, so it's a 'no' from me...

Even a winner here won't cover us in glory. Imagine us in the playoffs. We'll get eaten alive.

This has just become a series of speculative punts up and down the pitch. For the avoidance of doubt, that's punts...

QPR commentator just summed us up by trying to work out our formation..."Just a bunch of attackers and defenders"

Lowe needs a booking for that. He looked like he was about to do the 'Caterpillar' A breakdance reference on the Pink Un for you 80s kids out there...

Love Teemu to get a winner here...and take Swansea and Blackpool apart too. Be a decent swansong for him after such a duff season.

Well, it is end to end stuff. It's just...sh1t😒

Is Simeon Jackson on the bench...we need him

He's breathing out of his ar5e and fancied a break

Idah's Kryptonite

Hull winning. A goal here puts us 5th

Hugill timewasting. Or maybe some indigestion.

Time for Idah to earn his corn.

Or in 2023...

Pukki - and I say this with a very heavy heart - is now looking a liability. That attempt at a cross was very lacklustre.

One goal will win this. I hope we get it...

I think it's a mix of that plus loss of confidence and some desperation

Pukki's desperation saw him try and belt that - needed a trademark stroke into the corner
