Fear their result yesterday will ignite them now.

Likely play offs now because of the momentum the others have. Don't think we make it through the play offs either. Zero bottle on the big occasions.

I know this is becoming more fashionable but I do still think about what it would do for the core, match going fanbases of those teams. We might have negative feelings about some teams fans but at the end of the day they're fans like us and they'll get fvcked by it. I get the view to an extent though.

It won't be Ipswich.

Think we have to win pretty much all of them. Pressure will not be turned down.

Sincerely hope I’m wrong. Got an uneasy feeling about it all.

With the pack not letting up and the news on our financial cock ups can’t help but feel the end of this season is going to be bleak. Play off heartbreak to compile the misery no doubt.

The revisionism from those who were blowharding about Everton, Forest and Manchester City is funny. We're in the same boat whichever way you spin it.

We'd like transparency in the form of a statement on the goings on inside the club but as we saw last season, you criticise him and his hierarchy when they're doing an abysmal job and the retort is him/them having a go at the fans. Doubt they'd have anything worthwhile to say. Imagine they're hoping promoting will distract any shortcomings which it will for the majority who refuse to see the dear leader in any other light than deity.

They're sat in the plush seats with the telly's about half way up the west stand on match days.

Completely missed the point that I'm making.

Can play "my billionaire's betting than your billionaire" all we like but they're all basically shit. No interest in the actual fabric of the game or those who care about it. Fan ownership now.

Yeah, it was them who forced John Rudkin to negotiate an average weekly wage bill that could choke a police horse.

All the whinging about luck and deflections is tiring. As if they score for no reason at all.

Thing that worries me most is we don’t have results like this one in us. Teams around seem to be able to pull these out the bag consistently.

Troubling.

All know where this is heading.

Also think we don’t get through the play offs. Haven’t got it in big games, proven numerous times this season.

We’ll be lucky to be 2nd at this rate.

You know we’re shot as a fanbase when not one supporter bar the bottom end of the section are singing when we have our backs to wall in a fight for promotion.

Fear the rot is setting in.

Of course. But as I've mentioned in numerous other replies, if we were to play them I think the occasion would have a massive part to play (home support, local derby). On paper we're categorically better than them, but that can go out of the window as we all know. I just think we'd struggle with it, like we have this season in bigger games.

Didn’t once say we were bad away from home. That would be ludicrous. Going off past experiences, particularly this season’s (Cov/Leeds), a fired up Ricoh and the occasion would have us on the back foot and I think we’d struggle. I’m sorry for thinking that. Don’t worry, your opinion is just as valid!

Yes.

Very positive, thanks. Just being realistic. The gulf to pretty much all of those teams is much bigger than we think.
