Not sure if this is a good thing in some ways (blood pressure etc.) but better than Brentford I reckon. What do you all think?
I'm sure the boys will go into that game confident and strong. Rather than their eyes being on the prize (winning the final) they will go to Portman Rd knowing they are going to have to turn up and be counted. It will be an absolute battle - no doubt. Although auto's would have been great - is there more of an exciting way to finish a season than a derby and then maybe a Wembley final?
Think they were lucky to be in the play offs to be fair, I'm not too much worried about them, Brentford or Middlesborough will be a lot tougher games.
As I said on another thread..................... The odds on winning all 4 games against the same side, in one season, must be pretty high. For this reason alone, I am more than a little nervous about the play-off games against them. If we manage a 1 goal defeat or better in the 1st leg, we should hopefully be okay.
I don't suppose an away win can be ruled out, given our away record this season, but I don't think we will this time. (Happy to be proved very, very wrong though )
Surely we have a massive advantage in the play-offs - our away form being the best in the league. We play so well away from CR - don't need a home crowd. I fancy in to take something away from Portman Rd. holding on to it at our place might be more difficult. Two preventable goals conceded again today.
Portaloo Road should be full for the first time in years and our following will be massive. Having seen how nervous the Binner players were today, I'm feeling ever more confident, though anything could happen of course. All being fair, we should be strong enough to win both tbh
You were dreadful today just lucky that Derby were worse or there would have been tears and calls for M M's head today.
