    and probably struggle our ballocks of in the championship most weeks next season ?

    Or stay in this league, continue to build the squad, and have a full season of what we've had the last 4 weeks if possible?

    I think that we have to take every opportunity when it happens. What if we get serious injuries next season?

    I'd take promotion, no question about it but I wouldn't want to see the season on season struggle. Its a dilemma.

    I'm easy on this one and therefore am simply enjoying the good run. Clearly a chance of promotion simply has to be grasped, look at the likes of Preston and Sheff Utd, they've been in this league for years. Leeds took a while to return to the Championship, MK Dons can't break the play-off spell, if you can get up, take it! But that said, I would dread another season of struggle, with away crowds dropping back to the loyal 350, all the positivity drained and youngsters possibly sidelined. Plus, next year's League One looks set to have a tremendous line-up of teams, possibly all except three within two hours travel. So a potentially wonderful season might await us. Let's just see how we finish, enjoy being in the mix, enjoy the positive vibes and above all else, have some perspective come May should we miss out.

    Depends if we can locate 10-12 million quid that we would need to transform the squad into a mid table championship squad down the back of the Oakwell sofas (and even then how good Jphnson's recruitment is). If not I would prefer another season of growing the squad and incremental success.

    It's ok saying we're not ready etc. but when we are ready we may lose in playoffs 4 years running, then never go up

    get up when you can and cope with whatever comes next best we can

    Wow ... the fear of promotion.

    Grasp it with both hands if or when it comes.

    no I want us to be winning all the time until we get to the business end and just fail to get in the playoffs every year forever....just so we don't struggle every year.

    how ridiculous....if we don't wanna go up whats the point?

    Nah. I was booing when the third went in and cursing Davies for making that late save.

    I want us to go up, but I fear we'd be Blackpool-esque in the Championship next season.

    Promotion. No doubt. That always has to be the objective otherwise what's the point?

    However, I do feel that our amazing run has only just seen us scrape in to the play offs. To maintain that form will be difficult. I can see us slipping back to 10th come the end of the season, but with everything to play for next season when I fully expect us to be challenging around the top 4 all season.

    Its a difficult one is this. I am sure the players are up for it. We might get a few more hundred fans back if we go up. If we get the chance in the playoffs we should go for it. The longer we remain in this league the harder it will be. Let's embrace the chance.
