On paper Sheffield Utd have got a far superior team than any of the other 3 in the playoffs, so it should be them winning this tie and the final. I actually think the bookies have got them a lot longer than they should be imo. But from a person that loves to watch football, I'd much rather watch S'land, Bristol or of course us in the PL next season.

None of the 4 teams are entering the playoffs in good form, which makes it up for grabs in the eyes of the bookies.

Guy looked into the data and entering in good form seems to have no correlation with winning the play-offs anyway and points total being more important (obviously)

Good news for us is that since Lampard came in we're only 3 behind Sheff U on points and ahead of Sunderland/Bristol

Fair play in that case. I think 2 years ago we were very closely matched to Luton over the last x months of the season.

They’ve got a Hamer, but we’ve got a Rudoni.
I fancy our chances

As good as Rudoni is he's no Hamer
Not saying he couldn't get to the level though but he's not there yet
Different players. I can understand the comparisons with O'Hare, I'd love to see Haner and Rudi in the same side.

Really glad we avoided Sheffield Utd in the playoffs. They murdered us at their place, as they have for our last two visits.
There is just a little hurdle of Sunderland to get over. Despite all the confidence, think our chances of progressing are 50/50.
I expect Sheffield Utd to reach the final, 70/30 in their favour.
Utd will be favourites if they reach Wembley, but anything can happen on the day.

We'd go into the game with next to no pressure, which would well suit us.

Under normal circumstances I’d want Bristol City to get through, however on this occasion I want it to be Sheff United. I’d absolutely love to beat them at Wembley just to see that twat Wilder’s face.

Lots of moaning on the socials about O'Hare not starting. Apparently he had a fantastic game for them last week.
