Rotherham vs Norwich (Home) 25th April 2015

[Canaryboy]

FFS, Bowery a Lambert reject! 

 

[Din]

F*CK

Boro equalise as well. All of sudden it's going against us.

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

Big pile of balls

 

[Canaryboy]

I just can't believe that Lewis Grabban would punch somebody in the first half of a game this important, he will get a 3 match ban for the straight red for violent conduct too, missing both legs of the semi-final.

How could he be that stupid? 

 

[Gaffer]

Even with Boro drawing we'd have still been second if we'd won. Thanks Grabban.

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

Rotherham have had 21 shots to our 6. Cant really complain

 

[Canaryboy]

Even with Boro drawing we'd have still been second if we'd won. Thanks Grabban.

4-3 to Fulham now! 

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

How much has the points deduction screwed us over?!

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

4-3 to Fulham now! 

Wow. They'd screw us over in the last game anyway!

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

Full time at Fulham

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

Full time at Rotherham. Let ourselves down there. Watford are up. If Bournemouth win on Monday theyre up too

 

[Gaffer]

TBH I hope Bournemouth win to put us out of our misery and let us focus on the play-offs.

 

[Din]

Don't think I've ever been so angry at a football match, wasn't even this annoyed at the Boro game. A win would put us second, and considering the pressure Bournemouth would've been under to win on Monday then there's every chance that they could slip up as well. We're handed the perfect opportunity on a plate and yet we can't take it. Fair enough we had 10 men, but even that was because of one our own player's stupidity. 

Sounds like Rotherham should've had a man sent off as well though, which would've likely made it an easier task for us. So again it's really frustrating.

Like Gaffer I hope Bournemouth win on Monday so we can concentrate on the play-off's.

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

Dont think we should be too upset. For us to have actually blown it today 2 things have to happen. 1 Bournemouth lose on Monday and 2 We beat Fulham on the last day of the season.

Both very unlikely! So lets not get too upset about this. Will Grabban be suspended for play-offs?

 

[KeiranShikari]

Would presumably be available for the final if we were to make it.

 

[SussexYellow]

Yes suspended for 3 games. If the ref says he clearly saw violent conduct no point in appealing it.

 

[GJP]

Doubt we'd bring him back for the final. He's lost his head at a crucial point. Let the club down.

...on the other hand you want all the fire power you can get.

 

[SussexYellow]

First we need to get to the final. But let's not write him off. Will depend on who we are playing. If Boro, we did not open them up much last week so we may need his mobility as an alternative.

It sounds as though Grabban retaliated, will not be the first guy to act unwisely when provoked. We need to get behind him not be judgemental. 

Not getting an automatic promotion spot is the result of a season of games not one rash moment.

OTBC

 

[It's Character Forming]

Just on my way back to the car, arrived massively late at the game and missed the sending off.

Don't understsnd why we kept Hooper on when Jerome came on. Redmond was destroying them when he got the ball in space (not often as they had an extra man but wouldve had more chances later in the game) and with Jerome up front I think we'd have got a 2nd. Really frustrated.

 

[Suffolk Canary]

It feels like we're that horse which didn't quite land right on the final hurdle, and lost pace with the other horses and can't get its feet sorted.  

I'm not even angry, just disappointed. I wish this season would just f***ing end, it's getting painful
