Zip
Hound See Chris Wilder is leaving Sheff Utd

Did a ridiculously good job there up until this season. Be a good appointment for someone


A bit like McDermott he over-achieved and ended up paying for it. They could have given him the first half of next season.


Not quite true - he hasn’t been officially sacked - more of a disagreement with higher powers so to speak

Blackburn v Brentford should be a decent game tonight.

Wonder if Fosu learned that diving ability from us.

Blackburn have been useless, don't look like creating anything.

Blackburn have been a lot better this half and would really deserve an equaliser.

That's a stonewall penalty for me, so Brentford get an incredibly soft one, Blackburn get a stonewall one denied.

Looks like another penalty to me, keeper got blindsided by the keeper and he just took him out.

Could easily have given that as well

Hard to understand why that isn’t a pen

Not impressed with Brentford in the slightest, very lucky to win that game.

First Blackburn pen shout is where VAR would be great. Ref realistically unsighted as the pull was on the side away from him, though assistant should have seen it. Without VAR though, can see why not given.

Not sure how he hasn't given something on the Dack challenge, he clearly beat keeper to the ball and was clobbered.

Brentford pen was soft and until the 80th minute, was their only shot on target.

Forget about the top two. Too many decisions are going in favour of the teams above us. Brentford very lucky to win that.

Posters complain about VAR but just look at the way shocking decisions by match officials are influencing the outcome of the Championship.

Just thinking of the "these decisions even themselves out" cliché. Have we been gifted any wins by the referee like Brentford and Swansea this season?

We were fortunate to get the point against Boro when they had a goal disallowed but I don’t think we’ve had the soft decisions like the teams above us.

That would have been a red if the first pen shout was given, no attempt to play the ball.
