    Swansea and Brentford faltering... if we make the top 6 we need to avoid playing 2 games against Bournemouth... we could do ‘em in a 1 off but 2 games may be a stretch....

    Said a few weeks ago that Bournemouth were the danger team - they seem to be hitting form at the right time. Also thought Derby would struggle this season - hopefully that one doesn't end in tears for them.

    I'm not worried about who we play in the play offs, just worried about getting there.

    Looking like Norwich may still need points to finish as Champions now, not on the beach for their last game is not good news.

    I agree. The play-offs will be an enjoyable end to the season, no matter who we play, and whatever the outcome. No-one in their wildest dreams expected us to be anywhere near the top 6 this season. Main thing is sealing our place. Then chill out and enjoy the ride.

    I just want to stay in 6th place for as long as possible, enjoying the hope that goes with it.

    Finishing sixth did us no harm last time. We then smashed Walsall and Millwall

    Perhaps we can finish 7th but go into the playoffs following a points deduction for one of the clubs above, just to infuriate Wigan fans.

    My thoughts exactly. I think they have the most talented players. We'd struggle to keep Danjuma quiet for one match. To do it twice would be an even bigger ask.

    That's true, but for the second half of that season we were clearly the best team in League One, with the most talented individuals. I don't think many people would regard us as having a more talented group of individuals than Bournemouth. We outclassed Wigan, who were champions, to get into the play-offs, and then proceeded to outclass Walsall and Millwall in the play-offs. I don't see us as outclassing any other play-off contenders this time, though we may well beat two of them. Obviously, I am hoping fervently that we do.

    Birmingham, Huddersfield and Walsall were all going to be tough, but we went through, whoever we get will look tough but dont under estimate us recent form books can go out the window when it gets to the now or never games.
