BeeversLeftPeg Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Picture the scene the next 8-9 days. Wycombe bounce back from disappointment yesterday to scrape a 1-0 over Derby with backs to the wall stuff. Sads with the winner. Roll on to Saturday, Derby are 2-0 down at HT. Fightback and pull back to 2-2 with 15 to go, but can't find that elusive winner. Meanwhile, at the Reebok, we beat Pompey 3-1, Charles netting off the bench and the place is bouncing. On to Tuesday, we batter Shrewsbury 4-0. GD now looking handy, we had into a home game with Port Vale Saturday week knowing 3 points will secure 2nd spot. Mega. In my honest opinion however, I do think it'll go down to the final game, hope Peterborough drop points before we go there, I think if they are already in playoffs at best, we'll get 4000 tickets like Pompey and they may well rest players too.

That would be the perfect scenario, of course. That said, I've heard 2100 is about as good as we'll get for Peterborough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, then can slope off when ready. Must be a shitter to go all that way, then have to trog home again if unsuccessful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're out of the reckoning for autos by then, then they might as well hand over as many as possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constantly built up then having the life sucked out of you. Whattsapped this out earlier before I saw your post. Same message slightly different vocab 🥲 I’m really flat and upset tonight. Feel a bit fed up of it all. I really hope the narrative changes because tonight I just feel like it’s the season that has kept offering chances, we’ve kept having hopes raised and sparks lit, for them to be weakly blown out. Would be horrible to witness that in the play offs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constantly built up then having the life sucked out of you. Agree with you wholeheartedly there, this season has been painful. Coming short in nearly all the big games and have losing both games horrendously to Wigan. It's also felt like every single week there has been and opportunity that presents itself and we don't take it and end up playing catch up. Really hoping we improve next season if it is League 1 again. This season hasn't been good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constantly built up then having the life sucked out of you. Seems mad to say it when we’re 3rd in the league, and little bit of an OTT reaction to last night’s result, but I’m exactly the same and can’t fucking wait for this season to finish. I think it’s a mix of expectation/pressure to go up, meaning sitting 3rd isn’t cause for celebration, having the opposite form to the last few seasons (I.e. first half of the season great and it seeming like we were on track, only for the second half to be shite and the hope just gradually fade) and also the fact that we haven’t had any ‘big’ wins - all the games we’ve won, you’d expect us to so although it’s all great to get the 3 points it doesn’t give you the same buzz that getting 3 points at Wigan/Blackpool/Derby etc. would give you. Obviously standing in the sun at Wembley celebrating promotion makes it the best season ever, but fuck me even if we do do that in reality it feels like an absolute slog to get there.

Farrelli Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I think we can beat anyone in the play offs bar Peterborough. Their forwards will give us a problem. Unfortunately if it goes to form we will have to play them and I’m not confident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
