Not a clue whether we will or won't. If we play like we have been recently, not a chance. If we play like we know we can and are at it, which you would expect in these big games, we are a good side on our day and could do it.

Seems likely that the players and manager have worked out most are not good enough for the Premiership and will have to be replaced if we achieve promotion so they have little incentive to make any effort.

I said this on a previous post. The loanees are not bothered if we do or if we don't get promoted because at end of season they will go back to their parent Premier lge clubs. Our players proved last season that they weren't good enough for Premier lge so they will have to be replaced if we get there. It's in their best interests to stay playing in the Championship. That's why there's a total lack of effort & commitment. Leicester + Leeds × Ipswich don't have a loanee between them (correct me if I'm wrong) so they don't rely on loanees hence they have an incentive to go up. A lot of Leicester & Leeds players are good enough to play in Premier lge. I can't think of any of our players that are good enough to play in Premier lge.

As of now the stats are 66% no and 34% yes so ironically that matches our possession style so no confidence in us "fighting" to get up, still don't think RM has a clue what his best team is and which of the fringe players are worth while as he's still giving them chance after chance yet all around him can see they are not up to it? Also, if we do get to Wembley the bigger pitch will tire us even earlier than our norm!

Yes we could go up, but after yesterday's effort I seriously doubt it. Even if we did, with the way we play we'd get absolutely caned every week - so what would be the point??
As for Russell Martin, the sooner he fvcks off the better, I loathe the man.

I don't think it's a problem having a lot of loanees. It puts them in the shop window so they want to play and do well. Burnley had a lot of loanees last year.
They may not be playing that way at the moment for various reasons, but these are good enough for the PL, if nothing else then as squad players: KWP, THB, Jan B, FD, Fraser, Brooks, Carlos Alcaraz and Perraud.

Ipswich have Kieffer Moore on loan from Boscombe and Omari Hutchinson on loan from Chelsea; they have made notable impacts.
Leeds’ best defender Rodon is on loan from Spurs.
TBF Our loan players have saved our season. Though Brooks is increasingly looking an expensive disaster, which I have to admit I couldn’t see being the case.

i think we misuse brooks,hes wasted on the wing he just gets clogged,i would play him centrally behind the striker/s similar to what stuart armstrong does,much more likely to effect the game

Disagree with your list of players good enough to play in Premier lge. KWP OK going forward but totally useless defensively. If he was good enough a Premier Club would have snapped him up by now.(he might go to a Premier Club at end of season but very soon get found out defensively.) TBH is not our player Man City will decide his future. Jan B had a torrid spell at Villa , couldn't get a game, that's why he came back to us. FD same as THB he's not ours & West Ham will decide his future. Neither Fraser or Brookes could get games at their parent clubs, just came to us for game time. As for Alcaraz the Jury is still out on him only time will tell. Perraud possibly get a game in a poor Premier side ( but he would be a massive improvement on Manning for us).

I'd do the same. Unfortunately, RM is a stubborn git who won't change anything & won't take advice from anyone - especially when things aren't working...like now.

Playoffs are unpredictable, and therefore us winning them ain’t completely out of the picture, as at least we can/have been resting players for a fortnight before them, whilst no other teams been able to do that
