I don't get this Barnsley resting players against Posh. They could play them in the play offs. They wouldn't want to give them a confidence boost surely

? I don't think they have picked a team two weeks in advance of the match.

People on here suggesting Barnsley will rest players ahead of their play off games. I don't think they will

Hotels reserved in Plymouth and Ipswich based on the rumoured second leg dates. Hoping we play Sheff Weds, personally.

Just covering bases. I’d have a hunch that we’d be the half 12 slot away to either of those btw. 

Can’t see them fixtures being correct myself

And we are more than likely to finish 5th so it’s two Saturday 3pm playoff games

Not much time for final tickets & travel to be sorted

could be a busy day if both us & Derby are in barnsley & Sheffield on the Saturday

Such a bizarre schedule.

A week between L1 games - and leaves only a week to sort travel/tickets etc for the final if we get in and get through the semi.

Feels like an EFL experiment this.

Re the P/O legs televised, or are they outside of the 3pm Saturday blackout if PL games are still on ?

Battling over £8 pint😀

seriously though the time to sort things out is scandalous and coach companies etc will just take the piss big time

It's ridiculous really, even standard play off schedules don't leave an awful lot of time to sort so this is just daft

Notts county are doing an early bird thing for the final where you buy in advance but if they fail in the semis you don’t get your money back😀

Who would people prefer us to face if all goes well and we finish 5th?

Every team will be tough and unpredictable, I reckon the top 6 will be as follows:

3rd Sheff Weds

4th Barnsley

5th Wanderers

6th Derby

 

Bolton Vs Barnsley 

Barnsley Vs Bolton

 

Derby Vs Sheff Weds

Sheff Weds Vs Derby

 

I don't think we have anything to fear against anybody. Derby and Sheff Weds have both been quite poor as of late, but are tough places to go with 30k+ crowd.

It is a lottery at the end of the day, but if we do make it I think personally I'd prefer Barnsley over the other 2 

Probably doesn't matter greatly.

Going to have to play 2 of them anyway to go up.

If Derby are an older side, then perhaps a final on the expanse of Wembley might suit, but probably not much in it.

Tight bastards! They're so far ahead of everyone else below them, can see Chesterfield scabbing a 1-0 win over them 😂

The online ticketing system will see tickets sold easily enough. Big rush maybe at first, but everyone will get sorted should we get there.

If we do come 5th hopefully we'll get that entire end against Barnsley.

Depends on what’s decided this year
