Monday is massive. We go to QPR after it with every seat in the seat away end sold. Then a potential 6 pointer with Blackburn after that. Other results have gone our way again. It’s in our hands now.

Let's hope those in the seats at QPR make an effort. Our support was awful today.

Totally understandable but think people are reacting to the league situation rather than the match itself. We played alright today, should have scored a couple and got away with a couple too. We are far too reliant on the same 2 or 3 players to be on top of their game every week to be a top 6 side.

I'll take that today. With results pretty much in our favour again. yes a win would have been nice but Hamer's miss cost us, but the playoff's still look likely with our remaining fixtures. Monday should be a really good game now. Lots at stake to both teams. Should be a cracker.

We’ve dropped points against a team with nothing to play for - dropped a place in the table - but playoffs look likely?

We do next face a Watford side in terrible form and whose keeper was sent off today, then QPR in even worse form. Win both of those and who knows.

Lets see after Monday Grendel. If we win, will you still maintain the playoffs not likely?
The one thing that always happens is teams get reticent towards the last few fixtures. Nerves play a part, results go awry as with the results across the last two sets of fixtures. They play each other, and nulify their league position. It takes just one team to pick up a win or two and hey presto! Beat Watford and it should be in our own hands with the remaining fixtures.

He got the ball but outcome shows that it was a very dangerous challenge.

Might happen, but it's a pity we a) have every attacking midfielder injured and b) have Gyo and Hamer out of form after the break.

No superstars in Luton's side, just a balanced well built squad that can stay the course. You can see the difference it makes

I disagree, every club from Watford up and they are 11th if they win three on the trot they will be right up there, personally I doubt we will make it but you never know look were Preston are now from nowhere.

While I do think we missed a great chance today to help our playoff push. We're still in the mix. This has been our best season in the championship, even given all the crap we've had to deal with earlier on in the season and throughout with injuries. I for one will be doing nothing other than fully support the team the best and enjoy what has been an amazing season.

Today's result on it's own is far from a disaster in reality. The main problem was getting roasted by Stoke (who lost today at home against Bristol City).

Amazingly we're still hardly worse off than we were two games ago, because many of the teams around us are bottling it as well.

It was a great opportunity the last week or so, and it's fucking annoying, but it isn't over yet... Beat Watford (which I think will be hard) and we'll probably see the optimism return. I never thought we would make it but given that we also have to play Blackburn, stranger things have happened.

Is it too late to cancel Allen's contract, don't you get a 14 day cooling off period.

This will likely end up being a season of a lost opportunity that’s not coming round again for a long time.

Hardly with the teams that are coming down. This is a pretty even league and Luton Millwall and Preston aren’t great. It’s likely two of the three teams relegated from the PL won’t be in the play offs.

Their fans were the scummiest Ive encountered this season and that includes the tramps At Burnley.
plenty outside looking for a bit of trouble too.
and they gave a nice rendition of jimmys in a box for good measure.

Namely all our fans cos the SAG probably had a collective orgasm at the thought they have a reason to shut off another block to keep fans apart.

Fucking annoying when pricks do this, then undoubtedly complain about the amount of segregation at the ground.

correct, but only by 2 points
we beat blackburn who still have to play Millwall

so win all of our games and others need to aswell to stop us
