It's Character Forming

VAR is incredibly frustrating because if they'd actually used it to overturn clear and obvious errors it would have been useful. But that's not the way its been applied, especially with offside where it is just a nonsense and has been ever since Pukki's goal was disallowed.

COYY this is massive!!!

The thing for me is that Wednesday won an endless succession of corners and Gunn came to punch out several of them, it was just the pressure that wore down the defence I thought. Presumably the highlights just show the goals, not all the corners/crosses leading up to them.

It's a massive issue, if we're chasing a game, who do we bring on that's going to freshen up the attack and give some threat ? While Idah has weaknesses, he could fulfil that role, and at the moment we don't have anyone who can, with VH not yet really contributing. Aside from Gibbs and Fassnacht, the rest of the bench is purely injury cover. If we're several goals up then you can bring on VH or Aboh for a bit but that's not exactly the point.

Fantastic performance and result. If Leeds and Leicester win today it will push them down into the playoffs.

COYY !!!

There are so many, but personally when we beat them at home in the playoff semi and that move when we carved them apart for Redmond's shot which could only be saved by the defender on the line using his hand, and we then scored from the penalty anyway after he'd been sent off. It's even funnier that sometimes afterwards their fans would make comments about the result being caused by them going down to 10 men. And funnier still that when they were discussing their best moments of that decade, their consensus seemed to be that it was playing (and losing to) us in the playoff semi (which objectively was true) while beating them was way down our list of top 10 moments.

Err… but we did. That wasn’t the problem.

👍

In recent years they were in L1 so there were no fixtures between us hence no damaging wins 😂 Top of the league at Poorman Road still riles them, to go by comments some binners posting on here have made recently.

Whatever next, stopping them passing a towel to the long throw specialist? Seriously there is no doubt they generally help the home side by giving them the ball more quickly when they need it, and so this is actually a sensible move.

The stand with the tree growing in it would be good.

Spot on, to say a 5 point gap is enough to make them a certainty for 5th is silly, there are 9 games to go and towards the end of the season results can get very unpredictable e.g. teams at the bottom scrapping for survival can become a lot harder to play. WBA are definitely front runners in the competition for 5th & 6th but that's all, the chasing pack is close behind them and we're the form team of the bunch.

Credit to Hugill in that case, he never really established himself with us enough to be a favourite with the fans. Maddison won major brownie points when we were playing Leicester and when their player was down injured we put the ball out and the throw in went to one of their players, everyone was standing back expecting him to pass it back to us, but he hadn't got the message and started running on goal, Hanley realised and had to foul him on the edge of the box. This was in front of us away fans who were understandably irate and fortunately Maddison took over the free kick and passed it back to our GK. So major brownie points for Maddison, while they winger was solidly booed from then on and ended up being subbed off not long after.

Yes I also remember a game when Delia was in the away end, it a game in the NW though so not Watford. I'm getting old and it'll probably come back to me which game it was in a few hours or days !
