Oh my god!

The last 3 games have been so amazing! Well 2 out of 3. I have been very busy

The first of the 3 games was QPR at home. A sweet Clarke Carlisle header deflected of a waiting Chris Eagles who was marking the goal keeper from a corner. Handball, no handball. Who cares it was a good goal and no-one can take that away from him. People still can’t work out if it is Eagles or Carlisle goal.

Cardiff away was always going to be a tough game and in the end a loss was all we could take from it.
Jay Bothroyd opened the scoring in the 74min after a flick-on past the Burnley defence and struck a fierce drive into the top right that no-one could save.
The 84min brought a bad back pass that Robbie Blake could not miss. Good goal at a good time. Clarets fans were happy with the point until Ross McCormack responded seconds later with another good goal almost from the kick-off.
McCormack confirmed the win in the 93min which ended up being the last kick of the game.

Sheff Utd was the most recent match and what a game. Wade Elliot scimmed 3 players before striking the post. Martin Paterson was the goal scorer for the Clarets after he guided a superb header past Paddy Kenny after a delightful cross from Rhys Williams to score at Turf Moor for the first time since late November, against Derby County.
There should have been so many bookings, for both teams, but no bookings were given at all by Graham Laws.

Right then. One more win and were guaranteed the play-off spot spot. The last two games according to Owen Coyle are unbelievably hard. Southampton at St. Marys and Bristol City back at the Turf.

Can we do it?

I’m not sure. If we do it, can we complete the story with a happy ending?
