Making the Play Offs only to lose


Getting into the playoffs, even to lose, would be better for momentum going into next season than falling short.
Doesn't always work like that. Huddersfield reached the final last year and they should have won. Two very dodgy refereeing decisions robbed them.
Having said that I reckon our current squad are more likely to go down the same route as we did after losing the Charlton play off and really go for it the following season.
 
I don’t think either of them are particularly heavily involved. Certainly not Donald. He has a tiny shareholding

Would you have preferred we paid a few more million quid for the likes of Clarke, Stewart, Ballard, Batth, Cirkin? Just so you could say the club was more ambitious? It just seems like good business to me.

At the time Matete and Wright were well down the pecking order. I don’t think many would have predicted we would have so many injuries and both of them would only be getting in contention of getting a game in the last few weeks.
I’d rather we paid something for a proper striker than nothing for no striker
 
We aren’t winning 6 games in a row but we won’t lose many either.

Not sure the benefits of the money or the experience for the lads either. Nominal at best?
 
Of course I want us to make the Play Offs but theres a part of me hoping we dont. I tell you why.

I cannot see us winning over 2 legs and then a final with all the injuries and the no striker situation we have.

Therefore in the long term , is it best for the team to - just miss out ; get all the plaudits for incredible season ; not have any play off heartache/baggage ; take a well deserved holiday and come back ready for next season with no play off hangover......... OR is the experience and involvement for the players very useful. Your thoughts???
This team would be destroyed in the PL.
 
Let’s give it a rattle. Winning never hurt anyone. Should we catch a break here and get in we should give it everything.

Did you feel the same last season as well then ?
 
Imagine not wanting the team you support to get into the biggest and most watched league in the world with a massive financial boost that comes with it

Probably the same clowns that claimed going down was a good thing and "rebuilding"
This team would be destroyed in the PL.


We got destroyed at home by Stoke in the Championship
 
What an absolute f***ing losers mentality not to want to be promoted to the Premier League for fear of what might happen should promotion happen.

So short-sighted and inferior its untrue.
