Play-Off Poll

OK, here we go. Let's see how positive we all are!

Only 28 votes to win? Where's the rest of you optimists?

My vote goes to the opposite of the supercomputer’s prediction.

I've only voted so that the confidence of our players is not dented.

It is vital that they believe, have no doubts and play with no fear

This is like the thread "remember where you were when we went top". I won't be voting.

Yup - pretty pointless thread. The end result will be option 1 wins, because fans mostly vote with their heart.

Others, like you and I won't vote because we don't want to jinx it.

And others that vote for option 2 or 3 will be called out with responses such as 'great support' or some such other nonsense. Therefore, they probably won't bother voting at all!

Let's just be quietly hopeful and watch what unfolds.

Great support.
 

Play-Off Poll

It can’t be worse than last year. So pressure is off somewhat in that sense. It’s physically impossible for us to lose to local rivals in extra time in the final.

In any case, Brentford don’t do playoffs. We know this. So it is free hit for us in that sense anyway.

Thomas Frank, earlier this season (on our League Cup run) spoke about this squad of players having the chance to make history for the club by reaching the Semi-Final. No pressure, just opportunity. That’s how I feel about our involvement in the post-season lottery this year.

There are parallels in what he said with some of Gareth Southgate’s comments leading up to (and post) England’s recent tournament and penalty-shootout successes. After beating Colombia he said “To come through all of that – we’ve spoken to the players about writing their own stories. Tonight they showed they don’t have to conform to what’s gone before. They have created their own history”.
 

Play-Off Poll

1. We’re going into this on the up as opposed to missing out on auto promotion the previous game
2. New formation giving us more options against teams that press (Barnsley)
3. We beat the in form, parachute payment cartel team with 10 men
4. The law of averages state we must win a final one day
5. The players will have learned a lot from last years final
6. We will be at Wembley to cheer the boys on

7. Chances of three relegated teams going straight back up are virtually zilch.

That's just based on the current league positions.

Why do you think that? I think 05932004-41E5-4170-ADDC-B9890103260B.jpegIt’s based on the bookmakers expectations of likelihood of each team winning it as well as their own personal profit/exposure on each result.

Lowest expectation possible, semi finalists. Don't want to get my hopes up too much!
