I'm starting to feel nervous near the business end of the season To play the Wendies in the Play Offs the pairing will have to be 3rd and 6th or 4th and fifth. At this rate the Wendies will finish 5th or 6th so would not play us until the Final if we finish 4th or 5th (Hull would need to finish 6th if we are to play the Wendies as 4th or 5th in the semis. We are not going to get above Brighton and Hull in the League this year to finish 3rd.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Let us get this right. Getting promoted via the Play Odds has about 200,000,000 advantages and only a few disadvantages. Boro, Brighton, Hull and Burnley are NOT bigger Clubs than Derby County. Next year the Championship will have Aston Villa and two of Norwich, Sunderland and Newcastle. This is the season to escape the Championship even if we come straight back down, with a lot of money. The distraction is that signing players for the correct Division is delayed until as late as May 28th. If we stay down it is less of a problem to sign players than if we go up. So put two plans in place. Getting another higher profile manager in place for the Premiership would be delayed as Wassall will have deserved his chance of a crack at the Premiership. i would give him ten games only and give him a monster pay rise and his Academy job back if he cannot cut it in the Premiership. A higher profile manager would probably find it easier to attract players of higher calibre (wages) and may get us into a big financial mess. So let's do a yoyo, take the cash and try again if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFCArmy Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Would be nice to beat this lot, their fans were impossible after that breathtaking 0-0 at their place earlier in the season, most of their fans were convinced they deserved to rout us 3-0 and they had the best midfield in the league Its on SKY so I'm guessing its got a dull 0-0 written all over it but hope not Same team as Bristol City with Hughes coming for the final 25 minutes.

Gone Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I hope he plays our strongest team from now until the end of the season, none of this freshening up rubbish. Get 4th in form and at home for the second leg. Please Mr Wassell leave Bent and co on the bench. (Plus I have several bets on with my Wendys friends at work for tomorrows game which I need to cash in on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'm sure Wednesday simply need it more right now and may well get something. Pretty sure it was Keane who said that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the subject of Owlerton/Penistone, if it hadn't have been true, I would have had to have made it up. It was almost Old One-Eye quality. Great knowledge and it raises a big question. If wednesday fans are from a place so close to Penistowne, why dont opposing fans have a nickname to reflect this.

Gritstone Ram Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Not sure if we'll make any changes tomorrow. I think we should keep the run going but we do have the chance to give some fringe players a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Burnley won at Preston by 1 - 0 If they win their last two games, they are promoted. Suits me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Burnley (87 points) have QPR at Home and Charlton Away Win two to be promoted Boro (86 points) have Ipswich at Home, Brum Away and Brighton at Home. Need 7 points to be certain to be promoted Brighton (84 points) have Charlton Away, Derby at Home and Boro Away. Need to win all three to be promoted if Burnley and Boro both win their next two matches. 93 points and you are promoted this season Chances are that if we beat or draw against Brighton then we will have to play them in the Play Offs Final. If we lose against Brighton then it looks down to the Boro v Brighton game to see who is in the Play Offs Hull will have played three games to our one game before we face Brighton on the monday. If they win their next three, they would have 85 points and need only one point to finish above us (or just a superior goal difference) on the last day at home to Rotherham. Derby County will be 9 points clear of Sheffield Wednesday if we win tomorrow and will therefore finish above them and be in the 4th v 5th Play Off game. 4th team has home advantage in the second leg.

jagerbob Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I love a good stat, me. Derby are unbeaten against Wednesday in 15 matches. So dont fancy their chances much tomorrow. Factor in, we have won 5 in a row at home, they drew their last 2 home games to bottom half opposition. The last time they did beat Derby, they had Tudgay and Deon Burton in their team, and the winner came from a sub named Leon Best. Make of that what you will.

Exactly, Think we have played each other 12 times since we last beat them. If the possiblty of us facing them in the playoffs is elimated then I can sleep at night. They would only beat us with a set piece like they always do, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram1964 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Lets hope we keep the momentum snd team spirit,but bring on a few fringe players to rest a few legs.Result not everything now we need to focus on having our best 11 fit and motivated for the play offs,would be great to see hughes on for 45 mins.Well done lads for getting back on track and recent performances.
