Site Supporter desperado Posted May 4, 2023 Site Supporter Posted May 4, 2023 A win, using a little squad rotation, giving some big players who’ve been injured game time and resting some key players, would be best the outcome here. Keep the momentum going, keep the positivity and confidence high, utilise the strength of the squad knowing we can unleash the big guns to make us even better for the play-offs. Quote

Shouldn’t be difficult because Brizzle are on the beach and Barton is trialling some of his less used players Quote

Whitesince63 Posted May 4, 2023 Posted May 4, 2023 To be honest I don’t think it will change if we do lose. I can’t see either Barnsley or the Wendies wanting to finish the season with a loss at home, especially the Owls to Derby. Not worried about the Posh game because it’s irrelevant to us anyway. Quote
tomski Posted May 4, 2023 Posted May 4, 2023 I suspect us, Derby and Peterborough will all lose on Sunday Quote

green genie Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 Think I mentioned before Rovers had a decent sized beer marquee and couple of hipster food wagons outside away end if the Wellington isn’t allowed to open or goes home only like did for us. Inn on the Green is best boozer local to ground but home only so will need to order artisan cider in a Jethro accent Quote

No way will they want their last game before the play offs to be a loss especially at home. No doubt they might take the opportunity to give a few fringe players a game as we will probably do but I don’t believe their teams will be in any way weak. There’s also for Wendies a little score to settle with Derby over relegation so I’d fully expect them to want to win and also make 96 points which I believe would be a record total for not getting an automatic spot.

I'd also argue that Sheff Weds would rather play Peterborough than Derby in the playoffs, the opportunity to see them fail at their place is one I'd imagine they'd like to grasp with both hands.

LodgeMorrWhite Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 Sunday is still big for us. We don't want Wednesday in the semis. They have only lost 6 times all season and bar a downturn for those 5 games after we pegged back a draw at Hillsborough, they would be home and dry. Win on Sunday, and I see us beating Barnsley.

radcliffe white Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 Personally I’d go with the team that will start next week in the 1st leg, second half make some changes Quote
barrycowdrill Posted May 5, 2023 Posted May 5, 2023 Iredale and JDB back in training too. Only imagine they’d be called upon in the play offs if absolutely necessary Quote
