    Only if we go all out to beat them in the first leg. Caution would be a bad option.

    I don't think Duff will be cautious. Hopefully we'll be back to our energetic pressing selves, a couple of quick goals and the jobs a good un!

    Bolton will shithouse us, the Ref won’t help things as usual, we’ll narrowly lose the first leg then struggle to break them down at home in the 2nd leg.

    Don't know is the answer.. if we turn up over the two games then yes. If we continue playing at 70%.. then na. Think these two games will be a battle as much as owt.. so owt could happen

    We have only won 1 of our last 16 games against them. They are probably our biggest bogey team and our form has dropped off, as the players have started to run out of steam.

    I obviously hope we will win, but I don't think we will.

    just voted for a WIN bringing it to 50/50!

    tbh if I didn't think we could win I wouldn't bother getting match tickets !

    No only because of our recent form.
    Playing at our best I think we would dispatch Bolton no problem.

    You could turn it the other way too though in that they have never, in 123 years of matches, beaten us over 90 minutes in a one-off game - there's been 4 wins for us and a 0-0 draw which they won on pens.

    When we were on our best roll this season, which was halted by the Ipswich/EFL fake Jamaican fiasco, it came from everyone in the team playing well and us playing as a team, beating sides with collective effort, movement and finishing. We just don't have the individuals that one or two of the other clubs in the top six have but in that spell we were perhaps the most cohesive team of eleven.

    With everything on the line and our destiny back in our own hands I'm backing Duff to regain those kind of performances and at least get us to Wembley as we deserve imo (all subject to vaguely sane referee appointments!)

    What difference would us winning on Sunday have meant?
    Hopefully we just saved ourselves for the game that really matters on Saturday.
    I don’t believe we will lose on Saturday and finish the job at Oakwell.

    Therein lies the problem I'm afraid. All too often have referees this season got the big decisions wrong. It sounds a bit like sour grapes (it isn't), but just look at yesterday's penalty for SW and non penalty for Barnsley
