People saying its the biggest game for years, for me the L2 play off games were bigger.
I honestly believe are existence would have been in jeopardy if we gaunt got promoted.

Fuck this up and we'll be good to try again next season.

Its an unusual opportunity with a low points threshold though. One year Fulham had 80 and finished 6th

There is a real possibility the relegated teams will be very strong and a couple of promoted will be as well

Sieze the opportunity and all that

Hoping its prematch nerves (or my anxiety) but I have a growing feeling that the wheel comes off the wagon today. Birmingham have nothing to play for except pride and local rivalry and the opportunity to mess with us. Their fans are certainly up for it. And I do not like the idea of Juke and Deeney bullying our young CBs. The pressure is all on us.. can our players handle it ? Kelly is the only one (I know of) that's been through the playoffs previously.

If you're going up to the CBS, have a great day. The atmosphere should be electric and let's hope the football is as well.

My prediction. Viktor - unplayable today.

Need Hamer on song to find him with those through balls (as against Reading)

You can never be sure with Vik whether he'll carry over the frustration of not scoring any of his chances last week positively and get a couple of goals, or get completely greedy and try to do everything himself.

I’ve a horrible feeling about today being an anti climax. Players don’t turn up, referring decision influences a goal for them you name it today.

You watch Birmingham raise there game to another level not seen all season. If that happens what’s they say them as players and cheating their supporters?

Believe me this will be a really tough game.

Yup and every one of us would have taken this position pretty much at any point over the last 44 games!

Yer but we'll be raising our game too!

People talk about us bottling big attendances, but they're pretty much all been against teams better than us, which explains why we usually lost!

Not the case case today and as long as the lads relax and just play, we'll be fine
