after reading drivel about us still finishing top two i thought id post a more realistic thread So who would people prefer to face in the playoffs ifffff we sort our form out and stay top 6 For me sheff weds or cardiff, im hoping derby drop out so we dont have to face them
I wouldn't mind playing Derby at Wembley. Having meted out two severe beatings to us, it should be possible for SB to motivate the team in a one off match. They'd **** on us in a two leg semi final though.
was talking about this last night with some mates who support Wednesday and one lad who supports Boro, they were unanimous in naming us as the team they'd want if they make the play offs......as for me, i'd go for a late surge by Ipswich into 6th, failing that it'd be Brighton I think
I'd take Derby - we owe them big style and if the players have anything about them, they'd want to put the record straight. Nothing to fear from Boro either. In fact I don't think we should fear anybody as if we play to our potential we can beat anyone.
The more I think about it, the more I'm accepting of another Championship season. To me it doesn't matter who we get, they'll beat us over two legs. Oh well. It's only £92m.
Come on, guys lets not throw the towel in yet eh? Two months ago we were top of the league. You don't become a crap team overnight and although the last 2 months have been a massive let down for us all, there's no reason why we can't rediscover our form between now and the end of the season. We can all blame SB as much as we want, but I'm looking for a big response from the players starting on Saturday. After Tuesday you'd think they'd all want to show some professional pride and passion for the shirt.
We should have enough to beat most of the teams bar Derby, but should doesn't equate to anything this season. Derby have our number so if they are in the play-offs we have got it all on at some stage
They might have our number if we play 4-4-2 against them again. Having found out twice that that system doesn't beat them, surely SB will think of going 3-5-2 in the event we should play them again.
Despite them generally being our bogey team, I think I'd fancy us against Burnley, should they drop out of the top 2.
Unless we recapture some kind of form and momentum we might as well play Scunthorpe ffs ... and still get beaten !!!
id take Derby, even after the beating on Tuesday , I don't think they are that good and it was more down to us being absolutely terrible.
Unfortunately I think the wheels have fallen off and a play off place looks very distant, really do hope I am wrong.
Bruce has been totally out thought and motivated by two Derby managers, one who got sacked and now another with little experience at this level.
