You won 1-0 after our keeper threw into his own net. Bearing in mind we were still finding our feet at the top of the league we weren't that bad. I was there.

I agree, I think that their assortment of £40k a week strikers will see them over the line. It'll be a good experience for us though, noone was expecting play-offs this year so it's all a bit of a bonus. Also "If Huddersfield finish third, and I mean this, they will be the worst team ever to do...

Bloody hell is this still going? It's amusing that it seems to only be neutral fans that have any issue with this - haven't heard a single Forest or Blackburn fan moaning. Only their managers...I wonder why. With you guys I assume it's a combination of Wagner calling you 'bottless gets', some...

As I understand it the way that the premier league gets round this now is by insisting on a 25 man first team squad be named. But if that were the case then the team picked on Saturday would absolutely have fallen within that. It was no "youth team" and we pushed to win the game. Fact is, of...

I look forward to the next installment of outrage on Sunday when we pick a similar team. Or is that OK if Cardiff are midtable?

No, as in how many times have the team that played on Saturday come on as subs in the season? The 40% stat was starts only. We were pushing to get back into the game when Mooy came on, which is why Scannell also came on at the same time and why we brought on a striker for a left-back at half...

OK so 40% starts rather than "c.half the season". (They weren't my stats). While you're there how many sub appearances do they have also?

Yeah it's not ideal, but Coleman will have learned a lot this year for when he's our #1 next season.

Coleman is actually better than Ward, the only reason he's been kept out of the side is because on the terms of the loan with Liverpool and guaranteed #plays. Cracking save for a penalty and played really well. As he did against City in both games.

That's missing TDH (really good up and coming left back) and Bunn (recently come back from injury). Wells came on at half time too. So that's about 240 starts this season in the team... c. half a season. This "weakened team" got us into the playoffs. EDIT: Missed THD, the other one was...

Bingo

OK, but why is it our responsibility to pick a side based on the situation of the opposition? Also, the two sides we picked for Birmingham: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39676171 and Forest 3 weeks earlier (who also beat us 2-0): http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39464956 They're...

Bradford made 9 changes on Saturday, are they "a bunch of cheats" too? We made 10 changes for the Reading game, were we cheating then too? The team we selected against Rotherham and Wigan in our latest games against them this season were pretty much the same as the one picked on Saturday, were...

Jesus christ, are you for real?

And here's me thinking that getting in to the playoffs with games to spare was going to be an advantage. Turns out we have to let the EFL pick our side for us regardless of the situation. For what it's worth, Wagner rotates his team, and has done all season. That's why we've managed to get at...

I was talking about us catching Newcastle, not you, which was looking on the cards until Hoggy broke his neck* at Bristol and we capitulated. *turns out the break was an old break from when he was younger which he'd just never noticed...

Well exactly. A last minute winner from the fan's favourite in the last minute against your arch rivals. And despite what Leeds might say, he in no way antagonised Monk, it was Monk that barged in to him and made it into an issue. And then came out with that shite about "humility, respect and...

I'm sorry, what? What are you basing that on? That's a ridiculous comment.

You can be sure that we'll be making changes for this game. Our little squad has shown the signs of creaking over the past few weeks, hence surrendering 2nd spot. That win last night was huge as it allows us two and a half weeks of resting up for the players that have put in 40+ games so far...
