With Millwall only drawing it guarantees us at least a play off place whatever happens
Still be nice to catch Bournemouth though 🙏🏻

I would prefer to miss Millwall or Luton but whatever we will run them close in the second league at a packed CG

The players recently have looked tired, jaded, and slightly exhausted but the season is finally coming to it's conclusion. Undoubtedly our opposition are in a similar position, but teams demoted from the Premiership - Bournemouth, Fulham etc have a distinct advantage with a depth of squad. Yesterday Bournemouth had the all the advantages, playing at home, deliberately over-watering the pitch and only requiring a draw, thus could play a disruptive, holding game that severely disadvantaged Nottingham Forest. The concern is that other Play-Off teams could use similar negative tactics as emphasized at Luton, whereby hinder our fast, open, expansive, passing game could be stalled through specifically man-marking players, deliberate fouling and aggressive, physical tactics. Could we win the play-offs? Honestly we stand a reasonable chance, but there are too many variables especially the pedigree of Refereeing that could easily impact our chances.

I would like to see us rest the first XI against Hull. It doesn't really matter if we finish 3rd or 4th
Horvath, Laryea, Figs, Mbe Soh, Panzo, Bong, Cafu, Ojeda, Lolley, Mighten, Xande Silva
I'd really fancy us against Luton but I have a horrible feeling about Sheff Utd, I still haven't really recovered from that loss in 2003(?)
Hopefully we avoid Middlesborough as well, just because Spence wouldn't be able to play, which would be a massive blow.

Tbh I am not fussed about playing Sheff Utd. I thought Luton bullied us and if we got a week Ref they would do it again
I rate it as 50/50 either way with the blunts but live in hope

Luton seem to be getting a free pass on their style from refs and I see a few teams have tried that against us successfully. I’ll be gutted if we if we don’t do come out of this, the winners but I can accept it if we get outplayed. Getting shithoused into another season in this league will sit wrong with me for a long time. |

Word is Davis will be available. That would make a massive difference. You can’t commit 2 defenders to Spence, Johnson and Davis! Tbh, I’d rather have a recovering Davis available over a recovering Grabban. Unless Grabban’s on top form, Davis’ ability to play people in and free up other players to score is worth more than Grabban’s goals imho. |

Looking forward to this. Our record in the playoffs is shite, but we have enough about us to make it through.

What a boost that is.
I'm going 2-0 to us. I just think we are a better team.
