I thought Greer did well against Nugent. They only scored one goal and he wasn't at fault for that.

Give the bloke some slack, he's a good player.

splitting hairs perhaps but he could have been goal side of Stuani instead of a yard behind. No one covered themselves in glory for their goal defensively.

I can't draw the line until we're stood in the Leppings Lane end on Friday. You can both seethe and be positive at the same time!
I have already inducted Dean into the REFEREE'S HALL OF INFAMY (joining Challis, Prosser and Morton) and then Ramirez into the CHEATS/TOSSERS HALL OF INFAMY (joining McGleish, McNenemy/Birkenshaw, Keane,M). Although if Stephens had been slower to the ball Ramirez may have joined the ASSASSINS (Hughton, Whiteside, etc).
In the words of that famous philosopher, G. Barlow: "Never Forget".

Boro is history. Get over it and move on. Sake!

Exactly. Bored of it now.

It's not really though, is it? Until we know the outcome of the red card appeal what happened in that match can still affect us.

It won't get overturned. I'm absolutely confident of that.

Same here.

In which case, we have lost a key player for the duration of the Playoffs. If we fail against Sheffield Wednesday, or in the Final, then Mike Dean's mistake will have had a direct and massively damaging influence on our attempt to reach the Premier League. He stuffed it up for us on the day, and he's made it more difficult for us in the games coming up.

So no, I'm not over it yet either. Not by a long chalk.

That is splitting hairs, Stuani had an unfair advantage coming from an offside position to steal a yard.

When Dunk plays some on here want Greer back and when Greer plays they want Dunk back, count ourselves lucky to have four good centre halves in the squad.

I'll get over when I want to get over it. Don't tell me when to get over it.

Really? We should have done better against Palace but Derby were so much better than us when we just scrapped in. Apart from that our limited PO final track record isn't too bad - won one, lost one.

In fairness against Derby we were unlucky to lose the first leg and lost half our team for the second leg. After recent games, it's beginning to feel like deja vu this year.

Indeed. To say we always struggle in the play offs is a little pessimistic. We have a good squad and are playing a team that finished 15 points behind us. We have an excellent manager to guide the team who has seen all this before.

Absolutely. Both previous managers had pretty much decided they were going to leave before the play offs. Hopefully Hughton isn't planning on leaving. We also have the best squad even without Dunk and Stephens.

Agree with that. Sadly it means Mike Dean admitting a mistake and that aint gonna happen. The FA will sadly back their "man".

If Mike Dean did admit his mistake I would be preparing a very high powered lawyer as well...
