No qualms with the result, should be expected, but sick that we didn't lay a glove on them. Confidence is missing , but we are so rigid in our style that even if we had the confidence, I doubt we'd change anything. VK isn't giving this team a chance of staying up. I love what he is aiming for, I jus...

How many games have we scored first this season, 7 or 8.
Most of those dropped points have been down to us trying to sit on it, instead of pushing on.
I'm more nervous 1-0 up than I was at 0-0. Sad aren't I.

Brilliant from Dyche. Swamp us in midfield because we only have Berge comfortable receiving it in there, which forces us to try and go long. Then put an extra centre half in there so when we go long it will just be gobbled up easily by them, Also giving them extra height to dominate us on set piece...

That was about the most predictable half of football ever. The same problems, in the same areas, equals the same results.

The Swedish comparison is hugely relevant.

Sweden is twice as big as the UK. UK populatio...

Not a new player for January, but just signed baseballs record breaking contract. £557 million for a 10 year contract. He's 29 so I presume Baseball players have a longer shelf life.
The other strange fact, as a British fan, is he's moved across LA, from the Angels to the Dodgers.

Palace are crap, and still beat us.
West Ham were crap and still beat us........
Roy shouldn't have come back, but you can't deny his love of the game, and he only came back to dig Palace out of a hole.
I'd say Palace fans were fickle, but so are the majority of supporters, including ours.

Luton are nowhere near our level.
What they do have is a team of battlers, that give everything and never give up.
If we had half their fight we'd be midtable.
Good luck to them I say, if it keeps them up they deserve it.
If we go down we'll have deserved it.

Sometimes it really hurts to be a football fan.
I've felt low this last 6 weeks, but it's nothing compared to what they must be suffering.
I can't help but have post match sympathy for fellow fans, and watching other teams vlogs shows there are an awful lot of 'good' fans out there.

Both placed the ball into the corner, rather than smashing them into Row Z.
