It's gone our way - pre-Luton 17:00 - Mar 12 with 3352 views | Greenbay | We're back in it - that's if we win at 6th placed Luton. Got to be optimistic. Victory and we go from 7th to fourth. Most of our nearest play-off rivals all dropped points. Third placed Huddersfield drew their Friday match 2-2 at West Brom. Fourth placed Blackburn lost 1-0 at home to Bristol City after missing a penalty to take the lead in the closing stages. Fifth placed Sheff Utd lost 4-1 at Coventry. And 8th placed Middlesbro drew 0-0 at Millwall. 12 teams still have a possible chance of a play-off spot. And by the way - it's official - we can't be relegated with Barnsley drawing with leaders Fulham. Win at Luton and we're back on the horse. Optimistic? Why not? | | | | |

5 points out of the next 9 would be a good return IMO | | | |

It's gone our way - pre-Luton on 17:16 - Mar 12 with 3186 views | davman | None of this is relevant in any way unless we finally get our fingers out of our collective arses and fight to get back to form instead of whimpering like we have the last few games. Niggles, knocks and illness are taking a little longer for players to get over that they were earlier in teh seaon. Let's see if they are up for the fight. If we didn't look at form, the table still looks good for us. Unfortunately, the form means that we have our negative heads on. First goal vital tomorrow; the confidence appears so frail that if we go behind, I fear for this lot. The polar opposite of the team that wins more points from losing positions that we were a few months back. Hendrick out and back to JoJo and Field. Dykes up top as the only semi capable striker with have with Charlie waiting for his inevitable goal v LooTown from the bench. Willock and Chair with Adomah and Wallace wing backs. Dunne / Dickie (for one more game 'til Sanderson is back) and Barbet pick themselves as does Marshall, who I hope has got his two mistakes out of the way now. | |

That's exactly right. Points being dropped all over the place. In once sense it makes the 'if only' more frustrating, but more importantly if we can get our mojo back, it is all still there to play for. Tomorrow, will be very telling one way or another . | | | |

It's gone our way - pre-Luton on 17:42 - Mar 12 with 3010 views | nix | What I'm taking from this is how bloody hard it is at this stage of the season. You win a few matches, get yourself noticed and players start feeling the pressure. Fans start demanding success rather than feeling pleased with wins and philosophical about losses. Other teams start seeing you as a bit of a target and try that bit harder to beat you. A draw would get us level with Sheffield United and still only a point behind Luton and two points behind Blackburn. I know we've got some tough games but it's sometimes just as hard playing the teams fighting for their lives at the a*se end of the season. Agree we have to believe and continue to get behind the team. | | | |

I think you are right, mate. Goal difference on the last day? | |

It's gone our way - pre-Luton on 23:53 - Mar 12 with 2173 views | ManinBlack | I think what makes our current form so disappointing is the unreliability of those around us. We couldn't score against Swansea who have struggled since, lost to Peterborough in the cup who lose to everyone else, gave Middlesbrough a point, one of only two points they have got in their last 6 away games, lost at Barnsley who have the worst home record in the division, we are the only team to let Blackburn score in their last nine, made worse as it was a winner. We couldn't beat Hull and Cardiff at home after winning away to them. Suddenly the goals have dried up just as the fixtures got more favourable. I just wish the enterprising football of 2021 comes back before it's too late. | | | |
