Championship Playoffs

Poor challenge then by Hobbs; yellow card.

 

Right on cue, Paul ;-)

 

Was just about to edit my post to say the same thing.

 

Unless we loan players out for at least 2 seasons, the ones who aren't exceptional will find it tough to get in our team enough.

[Juan Galonso]

Is he really any worse than Kyriakos though Paul for that place he has in the squad?

 

Not a slant on the Greek who has done okay for us.

I'm not sure if he's as good as the greek.

 

If he'd stayed at us, i don't think he'd be as good as the Greek cos he wouldn't have got enough games to develop to the level he's at now. It's hard to give players enough first team games to develop while trying to get results that Liverpool need..

 

I remember him getting a bit of stick when he played for us in the first team.

Hobbs has just been clattered by Bothroyd's arm 'challenging' for a header - Bothroyd booked.

His decision making when he was with us was his problem. As you say experience is what helps fix that. 18 games a season for the reserves wasn't going to work for him.

I can't remember the last good domestic player to have come through the ranks at one of the big 4 clubs.

 

Most have gotten game time at 'lesser' clubs and then been bought in.

Theyve deserved that, Leicester are shocking.

[Teflon Don]

Whittingham makes it 1-0 to Cardiff with a great left-footed free kick over the wall* and in off the near post. Keeper had no chance of getting across to keep it out.

 

* EDIT: I say wall, it was actually only Matty Fryatt on his own. Still a great effort to score, though.

[PaulMcC]

Cardiff deserved that.

 

Haven't been impressed with Leicester.

[Teflon Don]

Fryatt with Leicester's best chance hits the goalkeeper one-on-one - good save, but Fryatt should perhaps have done better and might have done had he not been just coming back from a long lay-off.

[bigal]

Hobbs looks a solid player at this level. Good for him.

That was the commentators excuse as well.

 

He bottled it. Nothing to do with fitness.

[Teflon Don]

Full-time: Leicester 0 Cardiff 1. With no away goals rule in force, still a bit of a chance for Leicester, but Cardiff now big favourites to go through and a well-deserved win on the day.

[Antynwa]

Cracking save by Marshall at the end.

[Iantn]

Should be a good end to this one!

[4Q2 Wann Kerr]

the forest blackpool game is well worth watching 3-3 on agg

[Yozzer]

An away trip to Blackpool next season will be interesting. Got to say that Holloway has done an excellent job there but If they were to come up then I cant see any possible way in which they would stay up. At least it would give them some security on the finance front and they can get round to finishing off that stadium.

 

Edit: Forest just scored, that annoying prick Earnshaw scored.

Unlucky there Scabs, ha ha ha!

[4Q2 Wann Kerr]

great game

 

2-3

[Redexile]

lovely football for that goal

[4Q2 Wann Kerr]

If blackpool get promoted theres bound to be one knob who goes in the away end with a kiss me quick hat.

 

the Tower,the fair, the match, head kicked in by 80's throwbacks all in one day. fascinating

[Redexile]

Holloway's got his side playing some nice stuff
