I'd like to say Miller is worse, but I can still remember the first time I saw Deadman ref us - Michael Collins sent off after a Millwall man headbutted Gary Taylor-Fletcher for standing somewhere near the incident. Predictably, Millwall man got off scot free.
I've been trying to keep quiet about refs this season. But Miller just took the piss, not least because every time the ball went into the box for either side he immediately blew for a free-kick to whoever was defending. It was almost like he wanted to relieve pressure by allowing the side on the back foot to clear their lines; especially frustrating when a header on goal is blocked by a blatant handball. There was a five-minute spell where he gave quite literally nothing despite two or three heavy fouls either way, including one on Scannell inside the Forest box. And throughout the game he kept getting in the way of passes - at one point he was the star holding midfielder for both sides - which suggests he has little understanding of the game.
We didn't lose 3-0 because of Miller, though. We lost 3-0 because we were sloppy and Forest were clinical. The ref might have changed the game at 0-0 when he didn't send Darlow off (much like Attwell not sending Stephens off against Charlton the other week), but it's not his fault that a 5'0" midget got a free header in front of goal, or that Gerrard lost an aerial duel with Henderson, or that Gerrard completely cocked up a backpass when he should have put it in the stand. And we got nil because we're not clinical ourselves. 18 shots, one on target. Forest are a good side, to be fair, although 3-0 did flatter them.

I'm not an expert on the Championship but I can't imagine there being too many players at Birmingham, who would get in the Huddersfield squad.

7 points ahead of Torquay and Northampton now. We should be out of the biggest relegation fears now but with all the games in hand still being played you don't really know
Vercoe
Can't see Torquay surviving if I'm honest, so there's only one more relegation spot up for grabs.

They did well at our place under Knill. However, Jepson was still in charge at that time and Knill is longer their manager so our game at Plainmoor will be a completetly different one from the one at Gigg Lane. But I agree the situation they are in is horrible
Vercoe
Which is ashame, I quite like Torquay; and they're our closest home game.
gfnx25
Exactly! I mean it's like 10000 miles away from Bury but it's still a decent away day and I think for that reason alone Torquay should stay up.

There's other teams I'd like to see go down instead too,

Topped by a great Burger King, which was directly next to the stadium, before and after the game.
Massive!

You aren't wrong there. You may disagree, but up until you scored I thought we looked the better team. We had about three or four great crosses from the right that forced some good saves or some good defending. Then you scored, and we just capitulated. The heads went down, Frimpong went on his usual rampage, and Steele sh*t his pants every time the ball came near him.
After deservedly being booed off the pitch, Dawson decided to come over and argue with the fans and had to be dragged away. I wouldn't mind if he was actually half decent, but he's woeful with the ball at his feet.
On a positive note, the teams around us seem to be equally poor and amazingly we still aren't cut adrift.

No, I agree. For 30 minutes we looked pretty woeful ourselves, with no passing rhythm and no physical presence up top meaning we couldn't stop you from coming at us. After we scored we never looked like doing anything other than running up a large goals tally. The wonders of confidence.

But I was too drunk to remember anything that happened yesterday. Sad times
gfnx25
Well excited about this. If we play like we did in the last 7 games and improve our finishing then I can see us winning. Should be a good game regardless of whether we score or not.

Aren't they smelling salts or something?
