What a complete waste of time that all was.

Yeah they were on top first half hour then we got a bit more control..especially second half. Must have been boring for the neutral fan but happy to go home even.

It was boring as a fan too. You could tell neither side wanted to take too many risks. 3 shots on target for the whole game and they were very tame. Hopefully opens up on Thursday.

Worry is Summerville ankle still seems a problem and Rutter still not right..although he’s no no. 9. Fingers and toes crossed

They could almost just do away with the 2 legs and just have the game at the higher finishers ground.

I'm honestly not against that.

If teams aren't even going to try and win, what's the point. Better off having the one fixture at that point.

Less $$ and more open to random events so less 'fair'.

The 'less fair' bit shouldn't really come into it, especially when the final is a one off event anyway.

It's at a neutral venue though.

Sure but the team that finishes higher deserves the leg up until that neutral final.

Yeah quite possibly. The advantage at the moment is they get the second leg (and potential OT) at their place. That feels like enough of an advantage for something that's potentially decided on GD (for 4th v 5th).

Congrats to Leicester and Ipswich Town.

Very tense playoff matches - I recall the stress of these games and am glad we are not in them (at least not for the time being)!

 

[Bradesmaen]

Well, that's Leeds guaranteed

Like heck it is. We can still bottle it.

You're not Arsenal

 

[joop]

This performance makes the last couple of months even more infuriating.

 

[SM]

You're not Arsenal

Have you met Leeds?

 

[SM]

This performance makes the last couple of months even more infuriating.

Ditto.

 

[Jatz]

Be staggered if it isn't Leeds going through from here.

How frustrating is it. When we walloped Southampton 4-0 it was the same - where the heck has that been for the last two months haha

We’ve taken a combined one point in 4 games against Saints and Brom.

Very good today but tough game coming up

Yeh I’m not confident against either, maybe Southampton cause they’re more leaky at the back.

Still think today's performance will shock you back to form.

Either way, play off finals suck and I wish you well for the 90 mins of anxiety coming up.

Hopefully shocks us back into form whilst there are 10 red cards tomorrow…
