    Two new managers getting more out of their teams at Blackburn and Norwich. I wonder if Rowettt will at Leicester too. 
    West Brom got to be favourites to go with Oxford and Wednesday now surely 
    Favourites yes but I think Blackburn and Portsmouth still have a lot to do - they've picked up in terms of points and performances, but then so had we, seemingly, only to turn in a performance like the one against Pompey and raise anxiety levels again.

    Could go all the way down to the wire for that 3rd spot now.
    Pompey have a lot of players to come back from injury. Blackburn will have enough. Their new manager has had an effect. Think Rowett will keep Leicester up and you lot got enough points early in the season to keep you up. You usually follow a bad performance with a couple of effective ones. ie basic stuff but enough to pick up a 1 nil or a tight draw. That’ll be enough to get you over the line. 

    If I was a West Brom fan I’d be really worried 
    Ramsay was apparently their first choice when they appointed Mason but wouldn't leave Minnesota mid-season. Just a really bizarre appointment that I think is ultimately going to cost them.

    Agree on Pompey, Blackburn and Leicester getting out of it.

    Times I have seen West Brom they have looked ok.

    We have another game to come first, but suffice to say the game against them is rather important.

    Know we’re in the doghouse when I’m praying on a Millwall win

    So. Because Blackburn are a point behind having played an extra game... we're doomed?
    Not a single comment has said that.
    The impression I got.

    Ohashi is even smaller than me and heads in the winner for Blackburn with 30 seconds to go, I hope this is not the start of a bad weekend for us.

    His win ratio is 1 in 3, he'll have to improve on that a lot to keep Leicester up.

    No but Blackburn with a new manager are looking stronger, Pompey showed us what they could do and Leicester have the quality to pick up some wins. We remain in the box seat but its going to be squeaky bum time for a couple of months after our capitulation on Tuesday.

    We know how we do in "must win" games  :s

    Can’t see Pompey or Blackburn going down based on these recent performances.

    Relying on WBA or Leicester to finish below us is worrying.

    One good result and suddenly everyone (including me) see Pompey and Blackburn as too good to go down and one bad result and we all start thinking Charlton are doomed. Don’t you just love the Championship 😁

    Ohashi looks about sixty there. His barnet doesn't help.

    I don't think it's very sporting of Blackburn and Leicester to appoint decent managers going into the run in.
    Let's hope it doesn't give West Brom any ideas.

    Love to see it. Can’t see us getting anything today so the other teams not getting points is key

    Injured? 
    Or Rowett going defensive?

    Injured? 🙏 
    Seems he missed the Southampton game last week as well because of a knee problem, and might be out as a precaution today
