    Would just like us to go in with a bit of a run it might make a difference it might not, that and I just really really like watching jobe Enzo etc

    Really need to up it at some point before the playoffs start. I understand resting, rotating and trying things but momentum is huge and whoever we play will probably have it, it's a long time until that first leg so we need some serious football before then.

    Would give Mayenda MOTM, didn't do much but that was still a whole load more than the starting attackers.

    Going to be honest i'm sick of watching Roberts now. I try my best to not come on here and bash him but my god he makes it difficult. He's a bottom half Championship player at best and that's probably being kind. So, so poor. Alan Browne as well, pointless.

    Another ****e performance without Jobe, what a surprise. Our best player.

    That was terrible mind, absolutely terrible. We may have nothing to play for but we've been a bloody hard watch for too long now.

    Any manager should go ballistic with that performance, we should still be trying to maintain a high level going into the playoffs. Sick of the crap excuses too.

    Good to see ref telling their keeper to **** off after pretending to be injured. That has been going on way too much this season.

    At last, a referee with some balls ...

    ... I'd love to see a tap in scored against a keeper writhing on the floor with a mystery injury.

    Couldn’t help but laugh at Samed coming on to just cause pure anarchy either, seemed to want to fight everyone

    Me neither but both have already played at a higher level than any of our team ...

    ... that will hopefully change but won't for a while.

    Very disappointing performance, across the team, imo. Hard to find any positives. Bit of a before the lords mayor show I hope, and think. I know folk want momentum, and I think it is key. But in reality motivation is just as important, maybe more so. I will trust these lads come game 1 to be right at it.

    Also, everyone could see Aleksic can't play out wide last game, he's a central player and has been his whole career.

    So we bring him on to play wide left...

    I actually liked what I saw of Samed.

    I’m hoping he’ll prove some of the ones who’ve already made their minds up wrong

    Well, another pile of absolute cack!!

    We are awful, and I know we’re resting players, and giving others a run out.

    But if we don’t get any momentum from somewhere, there’s not a cat in hells chance we get to the PL. I can’t see us getting to Wembley.

    Everything crossed for an upturn.

    It was probably his best performance for us, even factoring in his club foot which put that simple pass straight out of play. I've seen nothing at all to want him involved for us, but there might be a point in a difficult game ahead where a disrupter has it's value.

    Shocking today, I hope it’s a case of us taking the foot of our gas (and also an element of resting players) because if that’s the standard going into the play offs we will not make Wembley

    If he was Ligue 1 team of the year I’m pretty upset that Marseille didn’t call me when I scored 8 in a season from left back when I was 19.

    Sheff Utd have lost 3 in a row. That’s not what you need going into POs

    My emotions are high right now but i can honestly say as it stands we have no chance right now for promotion.

    The last 2 games have been pretty embarrassing. I hate to say it but the performances since Proctor left has been pretty obvious?!
