All that has happend is that the home & away legs of the playoffs have been reversed. I fancy our chances against any of that lot. Why am I so pissed off? We should be playing Stevenage. Quote

We haven’t beaten Bradford in the league home or away and we’re going into the play offs on the back of a home defeat and having lost home advantage. Bradford could have dropped out of the play offs altogether, but have won away and have home advantage. They’ll be on a high and looking forward to it. I noticed Sarcevic scored for them today. That said, I’m glad we’re not playing Stockport in the semi. Quote

Leyther_Matt Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Bradford posted details for away leg £24 (tight cunts didn’t reciprocate £20) Not got behind the goal The two touchline blocks we had last week will be home fans, and instesd we’ve get the what was the home area of that stand last week, up to the Kop Quote

Thankfully I didn't take any notice 😀 I cleaned up with Ladbrokes today, not sure they'll recover: Wins for Wycombe, Stevenage, Lincoln, Plymouth, Stockport and Bradford 26/1. Quote

barrycowdrill Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Could argue we’ve done a similar thing by giving them the top tier only and home fans in the lower tier just have to make sure it doesn’t get to pens at their place Quote

No getting away from the fact that we have to beat them, if it goes to E-T at their place its not happening. And we haven't lost there in about 50 years or whatever, it counts for nothing if we don't win the 1st leg. Quote

If it goes to E-T/pens, the advantage is with them. If anyone thinks its not an advantage, we've won 6 away and 13 at home. Quote

Which give the game before that run was the Wycombe miracle, only Bolton could get that result then proceed to end up 5th and in the play-offs as the team in the poorest form.

Rizlar Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Finished poorly last season and the same this season it’s worrying. Quote
gonzo Posted May 2 Posted May 2 How the fuck have we ended up 5th. How did it come to this? Fucking shambles. Quote

I'm not claiming that it will happen or that I even think it'll happen, but there's a fair difference between and end of season fixture and the second leg of a play-off semi-final Quote

Had we lost last week, we'd have finished 6th and played Bradford anyway. Edited May 2 by jmjhb Quote
