    Over the moon we’re at home 2nd leg mind, would be superb to seal a Wembley trip at the SoL. We’re usually always away!

    And there's the answer.

    So no one, unless they're calling the manager a liar, needs to question what he's doing.

    They may not agree with it all but they can't say there's no plan.

    When he says 'our main X1' that's obviously considering injuries.

    "Now with two games to play and one per week, the situation will be different.
    It will be possible to start with our 'main' XI and I hope that we will find our rhythm, the right flow and dynamic."

    It does seem a little more scientific than Peter Reid shouting 'Get your f*cking foot in!' <laugh>

    If we go up we all agree we need a fair few top quality players to be able to compete.
    Spare a thought for those of our players who, if we get promoted, will lose their place in the first team or even the squad.
    How do they feel about giving everything to get promoted and then not getting a game if we do get promoted.
    Onion will always give his all but I wonder how players like Hjelde, Seelt, Patterson and others feel if they are playing themselves out of the squad.
    I suppose having promotion to the Premier League on your CV is something but will it be enough.
    My opinion is they will all go flat out to get promoted but the outcome of their efforts might not be what they wanted.

    In fairness, ‘get your f*cking foot in!’ was a decent tactic for a couple of seasons!

    The most successful tactic since the 1950's.
