Posh Ram Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Psychologically we've got the upper hand having beaten them comfortably on aggregate this season, which is nice. They do have a habit for getting late wins though so we'll need to be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inglorius Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I can't understand the puerile logic on here with regards potential play off opponents; Hull are a good catch as we have beaten them twice but Boro would be poor as we always lose against them. I forgot that the playoffs always follow the formbook year after year I would suggest giving Boro a bye if we draw them save them the effort of the inevitable victory.

nottingram Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I think having Hull in the semi is the best outcome. They're possibly (if things stay as they are) the only side in the play offs that can match us in terms of experience. Playing them over two legs gives us the chance to hopefully see them off and face either Wednesday or Brighton in the final, both of who are relatively inexperienced in terms of having promotion experience.

GboroRam Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Playoffs often throw up an unusual result so I'm not scared of any team. Bring it on - Burnley or Boro. Don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Skybet has Hull as 2/1 favourites. Us at 3/1 and Wednesday at 4/1. Brighton 9/2, Boro 8/1 and Burnley 28/1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't want 4th spot, only one team as won promotion from 4th spot in the last 26 seasons!!! With 3 teams on 87pts going into their last two games, who ever misses out on automatics will be down in the dumps and might find themselves out of the promotion frame after their first match in the play offs. Lets stay 5th please, put 4th placed team to the sword in the home leg. You do realise who the only fourth placed team to win the play off final is, don't you? That's the trouble with superstitions; pick one which appeals to you and you're ignoring (almost by definition) at least 23 other common factors which can be read as indicating 23 other conclusions. Unless your superstition is that the bloody gypsies cursed Derby County; that's just plain fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such was the amazing scenes after the penos, I think some forget we actually lost the second leg 2-3. Ahh I remember the Southampton game well. When Idiakez did us a favour and put the ball into row z. Then when we won and invaded the pitch, A shower of coins were getting thrown at us by the Southampton fans.

Gritstone Ram Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I wonder how they will distribute the away leg tickets. I hope they give people with 15 away games under their belt 2nd dabbles after half fan away members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexydadbod Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 No way that we will destroy Hull in the play offs in the same way as the league. Play off fixtures are always tight. They most likely underestimated us, that won't happen again. Boro did the double over norwich last season but lost in the play off final to them. Anything can happen which is why we love this beautiful game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So playoff fixtures aren't always tight after all! The away leg was a close one. Grant made some great saves, especially from Ulloa. And one of our goals had a lovely slice of good fortune rebounding off the bar and keeper. The home leg was exhibition stuff from us. Will Hughes with 'that' goal and some great noise in PP.

Rampage Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Ulloa may well be getting his Premier winning medal in a couple of weeks, two goals today including a great header.Good luck to him, a good investment at £7 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
