    VAR will be in place for all three play-off finals.
    Hate this, was really hoping the EFL would never have it but can see it being introduced in the championship in the near future. Celebrating a goal is the best part of watching live football and VAR takes away from this, to still not even have the correct decision sometimes so is it worth it? As usual the fans at the ground are listened to the least when these things are decided

    This is not the thread to discuss the pros and cons of VAR but to chuck it in for the last game of a 49 game season is absurd.

    Boooooooooooooo!!!!!!

    I disagree. I think for games of this importance it should be there. If you lose to a goal that is slightly offside or perhaps a handball the officials didn't see, that'd be absolutely gutting.

    Still think our last minute winner would have been ruled out as a push from Jason Pearce

    Gorgeous free kick into the area from Sorba Thomas headed into the back of the net but ref had already blown for a foul against Huddersfield in the penalty area.

    Getting rave reviews & putting on some decent crosses.

    Just remind me......how much was it that we didnt want to pay...?? A couple of hundred thousand difference ??.  No worries because we then spunked £500k on Kirk. 

    No clue.

    How... Just how is that not a penalty to Huddersfield?

    1-0 Huddersfield (2-1 on agg)

    Jordan Rhodes. Sorba Thomas assist from a free kick.

    Jordan Rhodes, who played for Huddersfield under Herbert Chapman ten years ago before going on his travels.

    If Luton could finish they'd have been out of sight. They've had 2-3 really good chances in this game

    Stupid me to think that the owner might push the boat out after saying we were going to blow through the League.

    However, once we weren't going to spend big like some teams why quibble over £100k - 200k.

    You're getting yourself tangled up. Is it that Sandgaard won't spend any money or that we're spending money but it's on the wrong players?


    In Jan 2021, you said we have bigger fish to fry... I'd have thought Charlie Kirk fits that description.

    Huddersfield heading to Wembley.

    Sorba Thomas completely changed the game when he came on.

    Never seen that before. The lineman was half way across the pitch before the ref blew the final whistle.

    Shame Luton didnt win, was hoping to see a new side in the Premier League

    They were my second choice to Forest. Either way, I'd rather see Sheff Utd or Forest in the Premier League than another season or two of Huddersfield getting battered 5-0 at home every other week...

    Huddersfield stayed up after promotion, just about! They were never going to keep it up, but they weren't rollovers. Until the season after

    Forest are by far the best side of the 4 in the playoffs, they deserve to go up. And it's been an eternity since they were last in the PL, so it will feel like a new side.

    Sunderland fan travelling from Newcastle to Wembley via Menorca as it’s cheaper.
