Yeah I agree, I actually thought at the time Freddie tried to score.

Sour grapes anyone?, what an idiot.

We have a term of "a*s clown" over here. This guy's picture would be next to it in the dictionary.

Took in the league standings for the first time since yesterday's game and got to say even at this stage we could be good for another play-off shot. Don't usually make judgments at such a stage of the campaign, but on the back of recent scores and the way it's headed, already looking at a safe top six finish. Damn stupid maybe as there's still so much more to be done and resolved, but can't help but feel a level of optimism (regards the club) as we enter new year.

Preston look beatable in the next league game, then after that you got Birmingham Away and Reading Home (eager for some payback after that humiliation in Berkshire earlier back in the season)

In between all that we have Portsmouth in the replayed game, so there are exciting times ahead without question.

The Reading home game be will postponed to make way for the FA Cup if of course we can beat Portsmouth.

Even if we don't beat Portsmouth it will probably be cancelled as Reading are likely to beat Huddersfield in their replay.

Records show Reading have lost six from their last 10 league games, so this would be a very good time to play this opposition.

Even better to avenge that 5 - 1 score earlier in the season, but above all else would want Town to win the replay game in the FA Cup and have it postponed for a later date. (There's no assurance Reading will beat Huddersfield in their respective game also as there's little to separate them in the league)
