    Will you stop with these positive posts which doesn't fit the agenda of some on here.
    Can't remember what it was like on here when our season crumbled away last year, and still Reggie can do little right for some.
    Some of our 'fan's are amazing.

    I’m fully expecting extra time in the 2nd leg of our semi

    Our games are always tight and it’s the play offs, stakes are huge…

    Isidor is scoring a penalty in the playoff final. Nailed on.

    That would suit me fine tbh.

    Yes they're a decent side but I think we'll go there, at Easter, to win and put a marker down.

    We have to beat two more teams to go up ...

    ... we're capable of beating anyone.

    Said before the key is hitting the playoffs in form, do that and I don't fear anyone as on our day we are unplayable.

    Would be the easiest route to the final possible IMO and I would be confident of getting there.

    It's quite strange but, after a quite ordinary game when we only really tried for twenty minutes ...

    ... I get the feeling people have suddenly changed and are really starting to get excited.

    Am I right, or am I right?

    Probably more nervous about getting through a semi tbh. If we get to Wembley, we're winning it

    Indeed and with three clean sheets I'd not be rushing anyone back in

    I 100% don't in pens. I really don't. That's not just the nerves in me it's player psychology and ability to take them.

    Don't get the general negativity about that game tonight. First half was poor but was Patto even tested? 2nd half much improved and might have won it on another day. Vital rest for Jobe and Roberts, mins in the legs for Le Fee.

    Samed, Jobe Ballard and Cirkin to come back in next few games. 4 points from 2 tough away games in the space of 4 days.

    Plenty to be positive about.

    If I was Dan Neil I would get into the office tomorrow and sign as long a contract as possible.
    Any Premier League scouts watching that game would have lost interest in signing him at this time.
    I think we’ve got him for another 4 years.

    I seriously believe RLB has to use minor injuries to persuade these lads to take a break ...

    ... they just want to play every game.
