Because Boro will be 15 points behind us, and us with a game in hand? I really wouldn’t worry.
Not worried, just want promotion clinching as soon as we can

Really don’t get the sky love in with Sheff United, Boro look streets ahead. The commentator also said there’s no better team at grinding out results than Sheff United…. I beg to differ.

15 points is the same gap as Cardiff making the play offs.
Not happening.

Preston losing at home to Luton and down to 10 men. They are dropping like a stone.

From the long throws, yes. Otherwise I’ve seen zero evidence.

Very impressive from Boro. Sheff have a tricky run of games coming up. They’ll be a bit worried after this tonight.

Btw this just shows how good we are, as we made Boro looked quite poor at the Turf, limited them to basically nothing (albeit they didn’t have Archer)

Sheffield United look completely bereft of confidence. Think they’ll become more involved in a fight for second rather than chasing us from now.

Tricky is an understatement. The next 8 are:

Millwall (a)
Watford (h)
Blackburn (a)
Reading (a)
Luton (h)
Sunderland (a)
West Brom (h)
Norwich (a)

It was good refereeing. The Sheffield United player to 6/7 strides after the foul, made the pass and they went and lost it. Perfect refereeing to the rules.

Yep, they'll be into April with only 7 games left by the time they've played those.

On the flip side, this time next week 9 of our remaining 13 games will be against sides in the bottom half.

Their main cb, Ahmedhozic, is one booking off a 2 game ban as well.

Thank God Boro haven’t had Carrick all season or things might not be so comfortable

They are so much better than Sheff Utd on this evidence

Beg to differ ran into a cul de sac, with no clear pass out or advantage, at that point the advantage was to Boro who outnumbered them in middle and up front. Ref didn’t read game correctly. Just because you dont fall down in next 2-3 strides and challenges still coming in. No obvious advantage

He was still in control of the ball and unchallenged. He made a pass that found his man. Basically he’d recovered from the foul to carry on. The ref was right to judge the advantage was taken.

Halfway through stoppage time last night I wouldn't have imagined we'd be a point better off on the Sheffield gap come the end of tonight.
