We nearly went up last year through the playoffs via a play not to lose attitude. We’ll go up this year because we will always play to win, have goals everywhere in the squad, a defence that has improved and unmatched depth in the squad as clearly demonstrated yesterday with the impact made by our two subs. We will not to fear anyone at all.

And in our current form, no-one will want to face us either.

I am more worried at Olbiyon, they have a very strong experienced team.

Would absolutely love to get the Baggies in the play-offs. Time for some pay back!

I had us at 50-50 a couple of weeks ago - I've now revised this to 65-35 - just got to keep winning.

With Mings scoring a late winner, punching the ball in whilst standing on Rodriguez face.

It's by far a trickier set of playoffs this year than last. We have a better at going up with the way we're playing but we're up against it if, as seems likely, we're playing an occasion against the Bitters and then probably Leeds or Sheff in the Final. Win promotion through that and we'll have bloody well earned our place.

I would rather they didn’t qualify after losing all of their remaining matches.

Going to be more tricky this time round. To reach the playoffs in our hands but we need to raise our game again after a poor finish against Blackburn and an off day yesterday

As for the playoffs if you look critically at the possible opponents then we are the favourites however in our he pitch all the possibilities worry me

This is key for me. Under Bruce Vs Fulham it was obvious that we feared them and so it was a contain-and-hope strategy. This group backs themselves against anyone.

But were nearly beaten by Wednesday- perhaps not as good as they may think
