    I can’t wait for the POs

    Now know it’ll be heartbreak or ecstasy

    I’ve loved this season, memories to last forever

    I was hoping Hume would be MOTM but it's either Luke or Mepham for me.

    Hume has been excellent of late, it must be said

    Skinned a couple of times tonight but Sainz does that to full backs week in, week out

    Big spenders like Sheff Utd or Burnley have no excuse and should expect to win ...

    ... we go into the playoffs with teenagers who have no fear, neither should the supporters.

    No one can have a go at a defence that has kept 3 clean sheets in a row.
    If Le bris wants to Muck about trying formations and players, now is the time to do it, not on the play offs.

    Good news we’re one of the two and should’ve had 6 points

    We'll absolutely hammer that fraud Wilder in the final. And they can stay in the champ with a Tom Cannon shaped millstone around their necks:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Just noticed…

    Leeds, Burnley and Sheffield United all play before we kick off in our next game

    He had a blue patch a few weeks back and I thought he was getting back to the Dan Neil who seemed destined for a very bright future , recent games has seem him lapse back to making mistakes due to lack of focus and concentration- he just seems to switch off during games .

    Hilarious, in the 90th minute when he thought 'Right, I'll go down and win us a free kick' ...

    ... only for Mepham to step aside, let him fall and make him look the cheat he sadly is.

    Counted at least 7 of those. He got fouled once a.l game. Ref gave that one, how he isn’t booked for play acting (all far worse than Mayenda on Saturday] is beyond me

    Three more points will guarantee a minimum of 4th place.
    Even less if Bristol City and Coventry drop points.
    We're on 76, maximum Bristol City can get is 78, Coventry 77.

    Fine with that tonight. All about the play offs now and getting the squad ready, not just a starting XI. Norwich aren’t a bad side and we got a draw away from home after making 4 changes. Bodes well IMO
