I don’t get your comment RCS. All the results are going our way, just need Derby to beat Reading and it’ll be a clean sweep of perfect results!

My comment was referring to the fact that FGR are winning, so at the time of writing they were outside of the relegation area and we were in the relegation area in the as it stands tables.

“As it stands” being the key phrase, and it is different from “what could happen in the future.”

Fair enough, I thought you were referring to League One scores.

Near perfect results for us tonight. Need a performance at Barnsley now.

Other teams are doing their bit to keep CTFC in L1. Honestly could not have hoped for a better set of results tonight.

Sounds like Charles Breakspear dropped two huge clangers (a red card and a penalty) at Pride Park to give Derby the win over Reading.

Daft question but why didn’t we have a game last night?

Due to the races our game with Charlton was brought forward

The " as it stands" discussion during games and on commentaries is complete rubbish. No points are awarded until the game is over.

It isn't complete rubbish if you want to know, during the games, whether you want the scores to stay the same or change.

You could make the same argument about literally any discussion on here.

Seen the highlights - those decisions were indeed massive howlers, and Derby's first goal was offside too!

The refs in this league favour the teams at the top/those with bigger followings and no-one will ever convince me otherwise.

At least it's not just us that has been robbed of points by officials.

Could I? Do "literally any" discussions involve fantasy? No.
