Not sure people are getting it 😂. Don't need another.

Of course we can. They're cup ties loaded with pressure, which would all be on them, especially if we could take a lead to their place. Definitely doable. Injuries worry me, and I'm not saying we would progress, but we'd be competitive.

No point being dramatic. We get over the line next week or we don't. If we do, I'm strangely more confident we'd progress than I was ahead of the last two games. Saw that coming, but we're still right in the mix. Big home game in CV6 to come, what's not to like.

I simply do not get how people would rather 'give it another year', it makes zero sense. Promotion from this league is difficult, if the opportunity is there, you take it. The default position is that we will be stronger next season, but who says we will? I expect sales in the summer. The club...

I agree that the odds are in our favour, no doubting that. I'm simply stating the worst case here, that Boro beat Wednesday and Norwich and we lose our next two, it would be over. They'd have a minimum +8 GD, likely higher. There would be virtually no prospect of overtaking them. Of course, this...

Near the ground, 10 min walk, there is the Novotel. If in town centre, your usual Premier Inns etc., but the Telegraph Hotel is very good. Round the ground a few places for a drink, Longford Engine is an away designated pub, and you'll have no issue in Dhillons.

It may not matter though. We all can see the permutations, which makes the confidence of some a little unnerving. Us losing tomorrow and Boro beating Wednesday isn't all that unlikely. That's puts us in a position where a defeat at Luton could be the end of the road. We've all watched football...

True, but I'm not sure this matters all that much, these are cup finals now, they'll be a scrap. Besides our form against teams near the bottom away from home hasn't been great. Stoke, Cardiff, Derby, Pompey, Hull - just 2 points from 18 from those games.

We're obviously in a strong position, but that late Boro goal has made it very tight. We effectively have a 2 point cushion owing to GD, with 2 exceptionally tough away games to come. Plymouth will throw everything at it Monday. Lose and we could find ourselves outside the top 6 in a couple of...

Play off allocations are limited to 2k, we only gave them 2k for the 1st leg.

Given the circumstances, to not concede a shot on target all game is a testament to how comfortable that was. We are a very good side.

It's to get more people in with the added bonus that it's more revenue. If I were unable to go I'd list my ticket and wouldn't care if there was no incentive at all. What good is it to anyone the seat being empty?

Working now I think

Will still be loads of empty seats, I know quite a few who can't make the game as they are working. We need a resale option. Might only need it 3 or 4 times a season, but we do it for a section of the ground already so would be easy to roll out. Don't have to allow it every game, but when sold...

I don't get this 'they have so and so to play' stuff. It doesn't mean anything. Oxford, Luton, Swansea, Derby and Millwall have all recently taken points off three teams that apparently we had no right to expect anything from (and didn't). We give those teams way too much respect.
