Say it again, the RTV programme and presentation is head and shoulders above anything currently on offer anywhere in the UK. I have a huge amount of time for Tom Miller, his knowledge of the club is amazing, and he speaks well. We've had him at a few supporters club functions and he has been brilliant. However, Clive Tyledsley just sounds more professional. Over the season Neil McCann has shown he is the best pundit in the country and is in a different league from anyone else. He is always ably backed up and the different co-analysts have made RTV unmissable on home match days. No substitute for being at the games, but it has been exceptional all season thus far.

To those who have reacted to my posts regards Aribo may I say he has rammed them down my throat today,well done Joe.?

When you figure it out, let me in on the secret...

I'm the same - nervous to a completely irrational degree before every league game. I shudder to think what I'd be like if it was close run!

I was really anxious again in the hours leading up to the match but feeling better now. I still feel a bit worried but every team in the world would like to be this far ahead with eight games to go, so maybe I should learn to relax more. Looking forward to Thursday, the players must be full of confidence.

What a difference since Kamara came on.

Having watched three of the five since they were 12 years old I found it particularly disappointing. I don't think Dapo has ever been in the first team bubble, so the other four shouldn't even have been in contact with him. Rightly or wrongly Nathan and Calvin will still be looked on as assets, whether that means a way back or they will be moved on we will have to wait and see. I would imagine it has ruled out any chance of Bongani's loan move being made permanent. Dapo's contract is up in the summer, his loan move to QOTS was a chance to impress, be that Rangers or in the shop window for another club, it would appear that chance has gone. I believe Brian was offered/signed a new contract recently, could be withdrawn it hasn't been signed. Nathan's parents were a presence at virtually all his games over the years, I would like to have been a fly on the wall to witness their reaction to events, especially watching Thursday's game.

Worth noting that victory today ensured that we will be participating in next year's Champions League - let that sink in for a moment.

TEN POINTS. (I will continue to fight to good fight re: BadJuju )

FFS - that's us lost 2 goals at home all season, Gerrard Out

It's match day ?

Yes, 7 points required to make it mathematically certain.

Oh, yeah, I'd forgotten we could still end up third! Oops!

You've viewed the game and you are prepared to eat the cast, heartless bastard!

The analysis is brilliant, they don't shy away from being honest too. I much prefer watching RTV over sky when it's the full fat program like today.

Yeah, it was more "disjointed" than being 2nd best and as you say, we had started to impose ourselves prior to scoring. Good to hear SG saying the players worked it out for themselves and went on to dominate the game and power past Dundee (Love how SG refers to them as Dundee)

I thought by the time we scored the goal was coming bit. Keeper had already had a cracking save. We were barely second best early doors that's for sure.

A very good victory on the back of a tough game in Belgium and with injuries to key players too. I'm a happy Bear tonight. ?⬜?

Greegs provided the platform.

Another good win. Aribo MotM? Kent and Kamara superb again. Tavernier was great at Full-- wait... I like the look of Wright. He's still young, but he'll grow into the team and get better. Good signing. I'll still need to see more of Simpson. Another win, though. I'm delighted.

Wow, what a finish Alfie - in all seriousness great to see him back on scoresheet

Some points in the last handful of matches have really shown how important McGregor can be for us. I'm presuming he's a stick on for signing an extension, he'd be hard to replace.

Ladies, please take your handbags to PM if you must.

One mistake on the stroke of half-time but he's able to cover the ground Jack couldn't due to his injury so we have a lot more confidence going forward knowing we have that coverage when Utd counter.

Oh dear.

The biggest issue I have with these players is that this is a crucial time for our success, we have waited years for this title and for anyone within the club to riskk this then they just don't know what it means to us the fans, there can be no way back for them, a harsh lesson to learn but to me this title means everything this year.

Patterson must be puking when he looks at that team and he's sitting at home. Consequences!

(A) Kamara and Jack in the same team doesn't work; we moan every time it happens. (B) Arfield is just back from injury, having played a big, exhausting game midweek. (C) Aribo is a better offensive option than Kamara.

‘ammers in a Euro place, cor blimey. Never thought I’d see that again.

If the title is wrapped up before we visit the Stadium of Blight, will they provide a guard of honour for the champions?

Does this mean we can now win the league at Parkhead with even a draw? Going on the basis that both teams win their next 2 games

All aboard the Banter Bus. Talking of buses and Neil has told us there are five to pick from; who will Neil throw under, and which bus will have to bump over a rag-dolled player?

Wonder if this guy was one of the 10 or if his punishment will be different from our players punishment?

Doo you really want to hurt them?

Aribo and McGregor were immense today but thought the mood of the match change when Kamara came on....brought that bit of calmness and spark. He gets my vote.

Moreover, it always looks as though he is going to hit it to that side. His crossing is great but I never have the feeling that he is able to hit the ball with power.

At this point I've given up caring how many points they have. Eyes firmly on the in incible season and points record. Can't drop any more points now...

There is no bubble, very few sports have bubbles, F1 and a few others, the players return home to their families after training, football only has an exception for training games and competitive games. At all other times, even at training and in dressing room, they have to comply with the same workplace distancing that the rest of us do.

Yes we were certainly starting to get a foothold around the time of our first goal but United were still looking better and more dangerous up until we scored I thought. Thankfully that’s why we have a world class keeper and we don’t panic anymore in these situations and we have the belief that we will turn things around.

In a strange way the large lead almost makes the nerves greater, the worry that we could still throw the league away. I can't see it happening at all but the last 2 seasons post new year collapse still weigh on the mind. But thinking logically, I think our record in all competitions this season (including Europe) is 37 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss. It's an absolutely incredible record, there is no doubt that this is a different team mentally to the ones we had in previous seasons.

Utd actually played well in that game and probably deserved the goal.Overall excellent again. Aribo was outstanding and Kamara made a big difference. Like the look of Wright in the wee glimpses we have seen. I think he deserves a start but might have to wait until the League is clinched

I think he's more of a centre half but can play right back (or holding midfield too).

Sorry, we had a bout of downtime today. Appears our hosting had some issue. Back in time for match. Hopefully.

First time since 1920s they have lost 4 in a row at home. Spanish flu and all that ?

If a game of FIFA and a takeaway with your mates and their birds in the full knowledge of what's expected means more to you than winning 55 and/or the Europa League then on your own head be it.

I think you're being harsh on the big guy. I thought he was quite composed and opted for ball retention rather than speculative crosses into a packed area. Passing it to our more creative players seemed sensible IMO. Ok he might not be Tav but I'm sure he'll fill in ok in his absence. He has got a good engine on him and he is quick
