Fulham beat the baggies on Tuesday & we beat Barnsley we're almost there without worrying about Brentford or WBA

It sure did. I was waiting for it to be cleared off the line.

Lovely ball from Klich too in the build up for Costa and again a move started in our own box

I think Brentford will win all 3, West Brom are more likely of the two to drop points. Fulham won't catch us, they'd need to win all 3 while we lose all 3. Two more wins please. ♥

Bristol City are back in the race for the 6th PO spot, long shot but they were dead 2 games ago

Fulham beat wba. We beat Barnsley by a few and that pretty much seals promotion barring 2 landslide defeats for us.

Leeds' return to the top flight could be secured when they host Barnsley on Thursday, if third-placed Brentford lose to Preston North End on Wednesday. :)

Only real negative has been Roberts. I'd like to Shack or Poveda given a chance instead.

It's been wonderful man management from Bielsa with Pablo. It could have been so easy to start him every game and ruin him, but he's been saving him for when we need him.

Pablo shows the rest of the players how to place the ball in the net as oppose to shooting/heading straight at the keeper or into row 28

So will Barnsley park the bus or will they come at us? They need to win.

We have the winning formula, keep it the same for me. Roberts is not a midfielder but Bielsa plays him there for some reason. We keep it tight and generally the outcome is in our favour.

We just need the first goal in every game and we're fine. If Barnsley park the bus they deserve everything they get. Sweet fa hopefully.

Feeling very emotional right now. I was in a shop when I saw Pablo had scored. My missus thought I was having some sort of fit.
Almost there now...

You should be happy mate, no excuses for anyone not to have Pablo as MOTM. ;-)
