I wonder if we should lose to derby to try and get them in the play offs at the expense of Millwall or boro!

I hope not as they are the only team below us who can still mathematically finish above us

You mean groom our own play off opponents? It's a novel concept.

Trying to dampen down expectations, I just dont trust the bloke to make the right decisions at the right time.

giving the team unequivocal support would be a massive help - too much negativity here

When I get inside the ground for the play off Home leg and hopefully the final I will roar the lads on as usual. I’m very likely to voice my worries on here though. These worries are based on what I’ve seen this season. I’m not that positive about the outcome but here’s hoping.

Same here, i hope that my trepidation is unfounded.

I wonder if we might have gone about 10 miles past the point where we start overthinking this?

Why is it your job to dampen down expectations?
