Fleetwood (H)

[waffer cup 07]

Never been a big Kachunga fan, but played better recently and today was his best performance so far. His close control is light years better than Charles.

[radcliffe white]

Kachunga played very well tbf

For me it’s too late 

[captainmed]

Progress.

That’s all we expect.

Irrespective of the outcome in the play-offs we’ve had a bloody great season.

UTW.

He played well today, even though he tried to " con" that he had scored! Yes control better, but light years behind Charles scoring stats!

And just as good, Accy are as good as gone as well.

Worth a punt?

I'm a bit surprised at those odds- Derby not yet qualified!

[Mantra]

Huge relief to get that done and dusted.

Bolton vs Sheffield Wednesday final would be quite the fixture

[Underpants]

Fleetwood are a tidy outfit. They were a tough nut to crack. 

[Lostock Whites]

I'd take our bright energetic young team going back to the comforts of Wembley against either Derby or Sheff Weds very old squads.

But need to get there first !

Another few comments about pressure and ‘over reaction’. 
I know we are a fickle lot but he needs to be careful about consistently referring to fan reaction. 
Last Saturday there was regular comments from Evatt on the reaction of the fans 1st half. 
BEN jump on this and before you know it there’s another article of evatt defending January signings or pleading for calm or talking about tiring teams out before attacking.

Slippery slope

I'd take that Omochere over our 2 big lumps up top any day of the week.

Give over. 🙄

So a draw at Bristol guarantees us 5th spot & a semi V Barnsley.

A defeat at Bristol and a win for Derby at Sheff Weds gets us 6th spot & a play off semi v Sheff Weds.

Barnsley it is then.

A few weeks back I wouldn't have fancied us against any of them, especially Barnsley, and although we're not really playing any better, they've shown their flaws too so bring them on. If we beat whoever we face in the semi we'll win the final 👍

I know what you mean, and Evatt has made similar points before.

That said, results have remained decent, we've a trophy in the cabinet, and I reckon he's got plenty of credit with fans in general.

In reality, he is always going to defend his players publicly- wouldn't expect anything else- but I'm sure he is aware of the shortcomings so far, and will work with Vic during the closed season.

Form goes out the window but you also need form going in to them if that makes any weird sense? On that basis I’d take Weds over Barnsley 

Thing is, weds won 3 in a row 

Barnsley 1 win in 4  

I'd rather face Barnsley over two legs and weds at Wembley

 Or Derby at Wembley but definitely not over two legs

Take 1 game at a time whoever we play.

Same thought process as me. Out of Sheff Weds, Barnsley and Derby, I’d rather face Barnsley in a 2 leg tie - mainly because I think the away leg would be our biggest challenge of the 3 games and I think we’ve got a better chance at Oakwell than going to a sold out Hillsborough or Pride Park (we’d lose there if we were playing their U18s).

If we get past Barnsley then based on how we took Plymouth to pieces at Wembley I wouldn’t be concerned against either Derby (who are scraping into the play offs and are full of old men) or Sheff Weds.

... & who's owners will he cracking themselves. Yet again they spent money they didn't have, assuming they'd be promoted.

Yep agree. Barnsley over two legs is hard but Derby or Sheff Wed away is harder. We do need a good home performance in the first leg though whoever we face.
