Well you need to do us a favour.
Can't say Blackburn didn't deserve a point, but that's really annoying to lose two points so late on.
Need a few favours this afternoon now.

You know you're doing OK when they say on BBC Five Live that Town could ONLY pick up 1 pt v Blackburn.
If you'd offered any of us 11 pts from the last 15 we'd have snatched your hand off. With what, 19% possession, we'd always struggle to score again, but we were close. Edge of the seat stuff for both sides.

Saw 40 minutes not saying you got a battering but you did, as for Reading awful side decided to play when one down if they had got anything from the game it would have been robbery
Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?

Yeah, we were battered into a 2-0 lead at half time. 
Then Blackburn battered us into their 5th draw of the season.
Oh, well, I guess it never rains in Lancashire either. Oh, wait. Nah, it just pours. Good of Blackburn to bring their rain with them too. : whistle:

Talking of handing out a battering, how did Dolan get away with the assault on the ballboy?
Disgraceful behaviour. There is plenty of video evidence knocking around for the police to charge him, never mind the FA. But of course, nothing will be done about it.

Gutted at only getting a point but at the same time Blackburn absolutely battered us today.
I text Mitzi(she’s away on a foreign jaunt) after 14mins saying it was 0-0 but it was like Blackburn had the freedom of the pitch, it was like they had an extra player on the pitch.
I text again after 22mins saying we were 2-0 up and that we had only had 15% possession.
We tried, huffed and puffed and they can be proud of the effort and the point. We were so close and I have no complaints.

Well, you know you've been battered when your goalkeeper gets the Man of the Match. He was superb, but probably at fault for both goals. Not seen a replay of them yet, so that'sjustmy first impression. Some of his saves were worldies though.

WBA 1-0 Town, possession 30%
Penalty was only shot at goal they had.
Town 1-1Norwich, possession 33%, no shots on target but Norwich only had 3
Millwall 0-1 Town, possession 29%
Town 4-2 Boro, possession 24%
Watford 2-3 Town, possession 25%
Town 2-2 Blackburn, possession 19%
Hell, I'll take these batterings every week. There's a method in Warnock's madness. There's 11 points we'd never have got under Frotheringham. We'd still be bottom with him in charge.
Burnley 4-0 Town
Town 0-4 Coventry
are what I call batterings

I remember us having 80% possession against ten man Swansea in the Prima Donna. We drew 0-0.
Only one stat counts in the end. Goals scored.
