Lanterne Rouge Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 I`ve just seen the games kick off at 12. What time must any Morecambe fans going to Exeter have left this morning! Ipswich are at Fleetwood too but at least they can have a weekend in Blackpool if they wanted. Only one play off place still up for grabs but I can`t see Posh edging out Derby somehow - they have to win at Barnsley and hope Derby lose at Owls. It`s a long time since there`s been four really big clubs in the play offs at that level like there are this year - it will be a very interesting one to follow. Barnsley v Posh & Owls v Derby both on Sky. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 (edited) Is the table wrong? Rovers made signings in January as part of their play off push, but they’re 26 points off Bolton in 5th who they play today?

All the sides above them have cheated by having decent players, managers and pitches and not having several players sent off each week. They have also no doubt cosied up to the EFL and avoided massive points deductions for rule breaking which has punished poor little r*vers who play the game fairly and never get what they deserve. It`s shocking really and needs to be addressed. If I were them, I`d sue somebody. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not SKY, It's the others dictating. Don't forget Charlies special day had a significant impact on this round of matches. SKY do not have the ability to change fixtures but only to televise them. If then the kickoff times vary it's because to get the maximum out of the match for viewing and especially for those overseas and you would be surprised the numbers that do watch over seas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the 6th richest club in the country must be in one of the auto promotion spots. That is why they aren't mentioned in the play off discussions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted May 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 No way that is a red for Curtis Davies. At least two defenders between him and the line and he barely touched him. No wonder Derby are angry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he tugged him enough (from h/w line camera, also refs view too)…and then Johnson has a free shot, which to me is a goalscoring opportunity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheReds Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 How has Lee Hendrie got a job with Sky (or anyone for that matter)? Goes over to his game at the start of play and he says "They have literally just kicked off" the tv screen then goes over to the actual game and a huge 1 min 25 seconds on the clock and then he says "It's end to end here Jeff". Over to him again "It looks like this goal is going to be chalked off", goes over to the game and they show a replay and the scorer doesn't even celebrate as the flag is up and knows he was offside. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you --very weak, City certainly wouldn't have got awarded anything there. There goes my Peterborough/Derby double.
