There's nothing "tinpot" at all about them. They'd give us a spanking. I didn't say anything about playing staff did I? In terms of infrastructure, fan base, heritage etc teams like Bournemouth can't touch clubs like Leeds, Sheffield Wednesday, Boutbemouth are a small club no matter how you want to dress it up premier league or not. id much rather pay premier league ticket prices to watch my team play in a sold out Elland Road or Hillsbrough than the f*****g vitality stadium thank you very much.

Mr. P Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I don't go on other teams forums but I imagine the Leeds forums are having a meltdown! Fulham looking the best of the lot. Reading the most over rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would it make a difference? I tend to go to football to watch my team rather than marvel at the oppositions' stadia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannable Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Just a thought. Could Huddersfield's drop in form be a conscious effort? Sounds mad, but their whole game is based on energy and the high press and we did see them take a more conservative approach at our place. Saving themselves for the play-offs? Or perhaps they're just knackered! They dropped off at the end of last season as well. For their sake I hope it's the former! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I did notice is that we were being mauled when we mirrored Fulham's midfield but created havoc with our pressing when we went man for man. And I do believe Hudders have two pivots and a ten like Fulham do. A slight change of shape in midfield may turn the tide like it did for us. It's hard to stop Cairney running the show otherwise.

Dimmu Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Fulham is my pick. Can't see them losing to any of those in semi's and even less so at Wembley. That pitch is sooo huge, that it would need qpr-sque display for them to lose, And it will not happen this century again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After "Anfield has an amazing atmosphere" the phrase "The Wembley pitch is so big" is the second biggest myth in football. they are all required to be within certain limits and Wembley fits in that too, it is only 1 meter wider than Pride Park (and they didn't do that well there did they?) Its the same size as Hillsbrough and Reading and a tiny bit bigger than Craven Cottage so it doesn't matter who gets to the final they will be used to playing on a pitch that size.

Kennington Ram Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Reading to win them. Boring but competent, risk averse football. 1-0 in both semi legs vs Wednesday, and then 2-1 in the final vs Fulham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
