Thanks Clive.
Goosebumps and tear in the eye reading that!
I saw someone say on the match thread that we’ve ‘definitely played better this season’ and i couldn’t believe it. I don’t know when we’ve been that good in recent history, maybe the two Welsh hammerings; other than that, i doubt we’ve had a performance like that since the Adel days. |

Agree I think Magss. West Brom I thought we were utterly superb, and it was a magnificent game with a fantastic atmosphere. Stoke was catharsis. Leeds was perfection. |

Thread | Most Important Goal of the Season
at 18:19 27 Apr 2024
Got to say I'm surprised Dozzell came second in GOTS - great goal, but I couldn't bring myself to vote for him. I think Dunne's must have got about 95% of the vote, surely.
BUT, different award. What was the most *important* goal of the season? I think there's a few candidates:
1. Dykes v Stoke. 2-1 down, Stoke with 10 men, atmosphere flat. Out of nowhere Dykes chests and volleys in and brings us back from the brink.
2. Goblin boy og v Stoke. It's now 2-2 and the crowd is remiscent of the famous 3-2 v Liverpool. Larkeche, in his biggest contribution of the season, chases a ball down like a man possessed and forces the winner. Willock the cherry on top soon after, which signalled the start of his own renaissance.
3. Paal v Huddersfield. 1-0 down. A deeply depressing game and a horrible performance. Paal, I think at the time our top scorer, knees one in and rescues a point. Felt like not much at the time but a few said how important it might be. Looking at the table today, it was absolutely crucial.
4. Field v WBA. 2-1 down despite absolutely destroying WBA for the entire match. Penalty missed, shots cleared off the line by bodies and fists. Had we lost that, what effect might it have had? Playing really as well as we can (at least until last night) and still losing. But Fieldy forced a vital and richly deserved equaliser.
5. Dunne v Birmingham. Probably it's a double for Dunney. Not quite a must win game, certainly a mustn't lose, but this goal of the season was huge for more than one reason. Scary to look at the table without this goal.
6. Dykes v Preston. Our forwards hadn't scored for weeks. We'd picked the wrong time to lose a bit of form. We'd just lost 3-0. Someone had to step up, and Dykes did it, with an assist from Woodman. A big, big goal in a game we had to win.
I guess Dunne will win this, but how about your top 3? |

Very good performance from Begs last night, other than the bouncing ball into the box first half that he inexplicably refused to come for - that is probably his biggest failing. But that's a minor point in an otherwise very strong display. We defended superbly from front to back and sideways, but against a side like Leeds you will also need your keeper to be on it and make a save or two, and he was and did, with 2 good saves and some safe handling.
Best wishes to him whatever he does after this summer, whether it's retirement or another year or two elsewhere. I've been critical, but there's nothing wrong with his attitude on the pitch. |

I do love how many people on here have an intimate knowledge of the workings of Chris Willock's mind. You must be earnign a fortune as mind readers / body language experts. |

There was a bloke I suspected was a Leeds fan next to me.
He left 10 mins from the end.
I was very dignified and didn't wave him off.

If you score one, make two and run your ass off all day and be constantly available to receive the ball and never give it away, you’re motm. He was the matchwinner and it best player, but that’s not to say every other player wasn’t absolutely outstanding. |

Says a lot the players went for JCS. I think Cook has been outstanding too, but I think JCS has been overlooked by fans a bit because of last season. Bit like when everyone was about 4 months late in realising how good Barbet had been playing for us. |

Saw Leeds the other night at Boro, and thry were terrifying. Cannot see who we have who could possibly contain Summerville, who's the Adel of this season. Think it will be comfortable for them and then we'll endure a horrible saturday. |

West Ham would be pointless, can't see that happening.
It'll be Spurs or City I think. |

All those things are true but there’s not a chance in hell he’d turn down the opportunity of champions league football. |

Exactly. He nearly went there in the summer. Pep likes him, and could easily fit in there and give them options.
Spurs heavily rumoured. I think Liverpool are an option. I think Arsenal could be an option - they need more depth. |

That's true though. The fabled 'pay as you play'.
Ned has said some good things about Ramsey too, and he is highly thought of as a youth coach (Eze has praised him), but that's clearly v different to coaching at Prem level. |

Think I've still got that too, and I didn't mind the circle to be honest. better than a big patch, and made the numbers easier to see. but I remember Jim Frayling saying he got absokutely slaughtered for the circle! |
