    I wanted Brentford as i thought they were team we could beat
    However, they have come into some form so im glad we avoided them
    Swansea are out of form atm and i reckon we could beat them over 180mins. Just keep there strikers quiet and we wi go through IMO
    Come on you reds
    1 final push

    I wanted Swansea - we've got unfinished business against them as I feel they've been fortunate to do the double over us this season. Also, we've still got to give someone a thumping and it would be good to do a Birmingham on them in the first leg. Hopefully, we'll progress and there's something poetic about meeting Brentford in the final game of the season again. The stars are aligning :)

    Beat us twice already this season looked good both times to me. One I wanted to avoid

    agree with that RGBS.
    Unfinished business indeed. we can do swansea. wasn't impressed by them at all in either match.
    we owe them a pasting and that should be one of the motivators for the lads

    I couldn't care less who we play in the Play Offs. Respect all three, but fear none of them.

    I also wanted Swansea as I think we have a point to prove and they are definitely beatable

    Reminds me of ipswich in 2000 sort of our bogie team beat us twice in the league and then again in the final hope its not the same.

    I agree, Swansea's double over us flaters them a little bit and we've got Dike and Morris now so I really think we can give them some problems.

    No better motivation than to face a team who’ve beaten you twice.

    I don't remember the home defeat but I can't think we were outclassed.
    We're a different outfit now aswell.
    No pressure or expectation on our young uns.
    Just follow the plan and do us proud. Great achievement to be in this position. A good warm up today.

    They beat us with sucker punches both games, not a lot between the teams then and we are better up front now so every thing to play for in my opinion.

    I feel really confident we will do Swansea over 2 legs then fancy Brentford to come through the other one.

    Was it a goal on half time from a throw in and a mistake from our defence for the second, definitely not much between the teams back then.

    I think Ipswich that season were mustard and genuinely unlucky to miss out on automatics. They proved this by finishing in the European spots in the Prem in 2001.

    Swansea are a bogey team but have been cack recently. I think they beat us purely because of some stupid hoodoo this season. We've only got the better of them in the play offs in my lifetime, so bring the poxy clogging pricks on.

    Didn't want Swansea.

    I will be soiling myself every time they get a free kick within range.

    Just going on my knee jerk reaction when it changed from Brentford to Swansea - I thought “that’ll do”
