Great goal from Chalobah.

Unlucky Tighty - have been impressed by Leicester every time I have seen them and just doesn't seem to be your year.

This game a draw was fair.  Credit to Foxes fans as they were with the team all the way even at 0-2.

Leicester on my hot list for next year.

Hull will be feeling the heat I feel at Barnsley.  Got tickets for Leeds final game - hope we are still live!

What has happened to Chris Wood?  Looked so good earlier in season now just seems a big block of granite?

And suprised no Nugent in a game they needed to win?  He's a clever player imo.

Was driving through Leicester around 945 and listened to local phone in. None of your fans seemed that bothered, I guess you had already accepted it a couple of weeks ago.

Wood was pretty shit for us in league one, then for milwall this season was out of this world. The best player to play at Amex from an away team (played Chelsea, spurs, Newcastle, Sunderland) too. Think I said it on here two.

Normal service has resumed now he has his £20k per week contract.

Leicssters squad is so strong, shows what a useless manager Pearson is. Bet hull are really upset they lost him!

Win today plz Palace, would all but secure our playoff spot. Be interesting to see if it is Murray Wilbraham up top again.

If he takes those two into a possible playoff team it will be really interesting to see if they can do it, they've had one game and we looked a lot better. So let's hope both can use their pace to get in behind Blackburns line as I don't think they will be expecting it.

A good little game of football last night, Leicester surprised me with their 'bouncebackability' (to quote that complete and utter tosser Timothy Lovejoy).

Loofah thought it was Sky payout time with Troy Boy first goalscorer and the scorecast covered from 2-0 through to 5-0    .....       freerolling. Alas Leekster plugged the breech and a much smaller than anticipated profit emanated from the generous H/T F/T odds.

Praise Buddah that the Tykes need a win today and will hopefully serve it up to the Dreadfully Dul - SW Herts hearts will only be with one team at Oakwell this afterlunch.

I think everyone - bar Mr Prew, of course - enjoyed Chalobah's thumper, and overall the game was a credit to English football.

I thought that, too, a welcome lack of theatricals, the players just got on with it in the right spirit.

Watford looked very good early doors, but then just seemed to switch off.  They were a shade fortunate to get all 3 points in the end.

Sorry Owlies but...

Gogogogogogogogogogo Posh!

[luther101]

Choke, choke.

[Ant040689]

HELLLLLLOOOOOOO!

[Ant040689]

oh no, looks like Speroni has put us under again, sigh.

[anthonyl]

What. A day. WHOSE THAT GUY FROM ARGENTINAAAA

Night out in Leeds now boom

[DungBeetle]

Hull really look like they are intent on arsing this up.   Proper live chance now for the Hornets.  I do worry though that if Hull beat Cardiff then it will be a big letdown which may carry through to playoffs.

Got my Leeds tickets - should be a great atmosphere!

[Sheriff Fatman]

We were fantastic today.  Superb performances all through the team.

The Peterborough result is a bad one for us as it means we have to get something from the last game but a least it's in our own hands now.  Win next week and we're safe, which is as much as we could hope for.

[Chompy]

Oi oi!

What a free kick by McCann. Bloke next to me said it reminded him of Lewandowski.

Hope we both stay up Sheriff? Best result would be for Palace to beat Millwall on Tuesday. That would mean Palace have their play-off spot sewn up and then take their foot off the gas v the mighty Posh next weekend.

I don't want much, just Watford to pip Dull, and Posh to stay up. That'll do ta.

If I could hand pick who went down from all the candidates over the last few weeks Peterborough wouldn't be one of them.

The other results are largely secondary for us now as our equation is quite simple.  Win and we stay up (we'd go above Huddersfield, who we play, so other results wouldn't matter), lose and we go down unless you somehow lose by 8 or more.  A draw is only really good to us if you lose, thanks to our GD, so it's unlikely we'll overtake anyone else that way.

At least it puts us firmly in the mindset of knowing we have to win, which is probably best.
