Then you don't understand the meaning of "must".

I know you did, but you still didn't answer the question.

You didn't answer the thread title.

The loss of Dovin was a massive hammer blow. If you were to look for one particular reason for our struggles this season, Dovin's absence, forced or otherwise, is it.

By definition, it can't be "must win" if a draw and other results going our way mean we get there. There's no such thing as a right to a play-off place - get the requisite points tally and we're in.

Come full-time on Saturday, we will have completed a full 46 game season without having taken part in a single "must win" fixture.

That's the inherent unfairness of the play-off system, created to provide more entertainment and generate more cash, which it undoubtedly does. You'd still feel a bit cheesed off finishing third, miles ahead of the chasing pack.

If we get enough points to get promoted, we "deserve" to get promoted.

If you've been a Sky Blues fan for more than five minutes, your heart will take it and you'll be back in August thinking this is our year.

Agreed.

Wouldn't disagree with any of this, which is why I said I'd rather Wilson starts.

Not disputing this. I'd rather Wilson starts too. Let's not lose the game before kick-off though.

It's the assumption that if Collins starts we've no chance that I have difficulty with.

People are starting to lose their minds.
