Sheffield Wednesday have 21 points from their last 12 games, that's almost promotion form. Röhl deserves credit, considering the position they were previously in, they only managed 7 points in their first 18 games, so to collect 40 from the 26 games afterwards is quite something. I still think they'll stay up, I thought they would since January but it's really close now.
I don't think it's my case to argue, because I don't agree with the statement outright.
I think the more bizarre thing that has followed from this statement is Nuno and Neco Williams effectively agreeing in their post-match interviews that they have continuously had decisions go against them this season. Mental.
Devil's advocate, but they are refereeing the top league of England, one of the top leagues in the world, it shouldn't be unreasonable to expect high standards from them. Nowadays, Kompany aside, you don't really see managers stay at a club very long if he doesn't perform well enough quick enough. Players are a completely different discussion because it depends on the standards and culture of the club, but there are obviously plenty of examples of players being ostracized, especially in the Championship.
Otherwise, I still don't know what I think, to be honest.
The problem is that I don't know a football club, at least in the Premier League, that has not been highly affected by refereeing decisions this season, Wolves especially, but the clubs themselves haven't been brave enough to challenge the officiating in that leauge so far, but the reason why I don't know how I feel about it is that this is a very strong statement.
You can't really argue that refereeing in this country has been appalling for the most part, but I don't know about this.
Current illness in camp and a few injury problems suggest that it's probably not a good time to play them. The positive news for Burns potentially being available before the end of the season suggests to me that there's a chance he could be back to play some part in that game.
I agree, but more biased towards Brenner than Wheeler, and this is because I truly believe Brenner is the hallmark of local commentary at the moment, I absolutely adore his style of pacing.
12? Carabao Cup and FA Cup winners outside the top 8 for Conference and Euorpa League. the 7 champions league places if the europa league winner and champions league winner finishes outside of the top 8. 6th and 7th get europa league, 8th get conference league. I think that's how it works now?
7th, but I'm not as surprised as other people with how well we have done so far. Playoffs is perfectly acceptable although I think 2nd is ours for the taking.
As stated above, I managed 17th on the league calculator, but that's if every result was somehow 3-0, it's obviously never going to go down like that if we lost every game, but it still means 17th IS possible.
The 2-1 loss to Oxford because it was hilarious. I know we complained about it being wrong, but it reminded me of the 3-2 away win against Wigan back in December, 2016, when we were the most inconsistent team to ever grace the planet.
