Oxford away is a deceptively tough away game but it’s still winnable. Ironically, it’s one of the game I may struggle to get a ticket for without calling in favours.

There’s everything to be optimistic for! I reckon we’ll finish 5th this season.

Only away team left with a better home record than us. If we make it it’ll be down to home performances I reckon.

It always down to home performances because there is a bunch of 3 pointers. We’ve got most of the top half at home in 2025 with Watford, Leeds and Bristol played already (and QPR who were thereabouts).

The games against WBA, PNE, Boro and Sunderland are big games. 3 of those are proverbial 6 pointers.

We had some good chances but on fair viewing, Wednesday were the better team overall imo. A draw was a fair-ish result. Needless to say I’m buzzing Simms forced a clanger from their keeper!

PNE down with Stoke for home form. Derby even worse. Gonna be some huge home games.

Agreed to be honest mate! In this league you need to ride your luck a bit and we’re doing that atm.

It roughly evens out over a 46 game season and it feels like we’re finally getting our luck.

If Dovin gifted a goal like Beasley did today, I’d have been “incandescent” to use a fancy word!

God , how did we get away with that ?
Although the ruled out goal ,was allegedly good , we gave away possession so easily at times, but we seem to have a never say die attitude & 2 games with extra time wins , in the space of a week is brilliant.
I have to keep looking at the league table to remind myself on how far we have come ………now for Preston & hopefully another bumper crowd .

My indignation would’ve been through the roof!

I reckon we didn’t have any luck at the start of the year…or were just rubbish.
It’s been a funny old season. Previous (recent) years the football’s been more exciting but if we grind out shitty wins for the rest of the season I’ll be well happy!

The 'up and under' for the goal at the end reminded me of Benno's hoof for the third goal in the '87 quarter-final, very nearly the same spot We should try those more often

Form since the new year has been insane, find it hard to believe we can keep it going but we keep avoiding banana skins and getting results. Win two of the next three and I’ll believe I think. Still got questions about whether we can win those six pointer games and definitely the play offs, but if we keep beating the rest we might not need to.

There was loads on the main road back to the city centre. Just makes me dislike the northern wankers even more.

100% here mate! From the Wednesday POV - a terrible goal to concede!

Under Robins, any game we could’ve lost, we lost. Under Lampard, any game we could’ve won (bar Norwich), we won! That’s how it’s felt to me!

Just catching up on this: what a way to take the points, very sweet after the CBS fixture. Great work by Simms for both goals and his disallowed one ought to have stood.

End the PNE hoodoo and just hand us promotion now
Click to expand...
We need to be careful with all of this hoodoo stuff next week , we do win at home against them occasionally, certainly draw a few times. Admittedly Queen Victoria was a young child when we last won there but at home it isn’t anywhere near as bad

Do yourself a favour and just believe. I agree with the sentiment but I felt the same way in 22/23 where the impossible was somehow possible!

Ngl, I and few mates of mine were pally pally with the Wednesday-ite’s- in the Hillsborough social club and they weren’t bad lads despite being ‘round the edges’ by our definitions!

My personal experience with Sheffield W fans was that they were decent, honest working men!

What you classing as 6 pointer games? In this run of 7 wins in 8 or whatever it is now, we've beaten about 5 play off contenders.

We parked a good 25 mins walk away from the ground. Apart from a handful of police right outside the away turnstiles we didn’t see any on our way back
