Tonight is the other playoff semi final 1st Leg
What do we think and what do we want.
Be nice if Bristol can take a lead into the 2nd leg at Sheffield

I'll be happy with a 2-1 Bristol win....a few sending offs
Will make the 2nd leg very interesting
I do think Sheff Utd will scrape through after the 2 legs but I do hope I'm wrong

Not fussed who we would get. On our day we could beat or lose to either side. “Let’s just get there” are my thoughts.

Bristol City are a nicer club and set of fans than the Blades, who i despise with a passion! I would prefer them in the Final, as i think we have a better chance of beating them and would mind less if we didn't.

Be nice if Hamer gets a red or injury.

Any sending off would just give them a rest for the final no - unless they all start biting each other?

We want lots of red cards for the winning team in the second leg

can't see past Sheff Utd going up at the minute, would be great if Bristol can give them a really tough game though.

The thought of only needing to beat Sunderland and Bristol to get promoted is nice!

I am hoping against hope that BC sneak this, but in all honesty I can't see past Sheffield United getting through the tie.

Would love to see Sheffield United get battered over the 2 legs I cant stand the club, sisi supporting, quarter final stealing poaching fuckers

Can see Hamer running the show like he did for us in the 2nd leg, so B.City need to go into the 2nd leg with a lead to hold onto

Maximum casualties is what we want. Fights, red cards, lengthy bans.

More realistically i suppose Bristol would look the easier opponent for Wembley (should we get there) but id hope that whoever makes it in plays poorly and doesnt take much momentum into the game.

Not if its violent conduct, so lets hope a massive scrap starts.

Then the replacements can get sent off for two bookings in the second leg.

Sheff Utd play offs record- played in 9, promoted via the play offs - 0.

I told my lad about the dream I had about this fixture
1st leg Bristol City scrape it 2-1
2nd leg Sheff Utd are winning 2-1 with 2 mins to go, looks like extra time, then they give away a penalty, Bristol City score to go through to Wembley

I suspect Bristol's playoff campaign to be pretty short and sweet, but you never know.

Fully expecting Sheffield United to walk over them.

Would love us to beat Sheff Utd at Wembley, but it would be the harder game, and Wilder is is bound to come up with a plan to stop us playing, and will have them smashing into Sakamoto and Wright early on. Whilst a win against them would be magical, a loss with Hamer & O'Hare celebrating would be hard to take after Luton & Man U.
We were disappointing against Luton 2 years back. Apart from a great goal, we barely carved out a chance in 120 mins. We managed to get to grips with Luton's attack by the end of the 1st half but were lucky to only be 1-0 down at that stage.

Expect Sheffield United to win both legs , & play Coventry in the final , with them feeling confident of reaching the premiership.

Sheffield Utd are clearly the superior side so I’m hoping (and weirdly expecting) that they’ll balls it up.

Wilder has got four promotions under his belt, just can't see them ballsing it up

We would stand a better chance against Bristol in the final, but just can't see them getting past Sheff U over 2 legs.

If we get through i hope Bristol City win.

If Sunderland go through i'd prefer Sheff Utd to win.

You've got to favour Sheffield but seen a united fan previewing the game he said he thought they gave them more problems than most this season.

Just seen a good question. 2 players have played for all 4 clubs in the championship play offs, who are they? (Keep quiet if you’ve seen the answer)

Beating Sheff Utd in the final would be the stuff dreams are made of. Ideally with 2 OGs from Hamer and CoH.

Mass brawl, proper kicking off, few concussions, few broken bones. All 18 men and managers on both sides getting 12 month bans.
