So the biggest match in 20 years on Wednesday, a win will seal a play off place although mathematically it would be possible for Swansea to catch us it if they beat Leeds and reverse a 6 goal deficit, a draw against Swansea could be squeaky bum time if Millwall and Preston win their last 3 games but they both have far inferior goal differences, so theoretically we need 2 points from the last 3 games providing 1 of those points are against Swansea, simple int it.

Skegbyred I don’t believe this board mate, we stand on the cusp of a 4 team tournament, winning it could transform this club, much much bigger than any FA cup semi final, all I have seen is people moaning! Instances:about grabban ( our 1st 20 goal striker for years) our style of play ( that might have been an interesting discussion 40 games ago) moaning about cash and Worrall (two young players wanted by prem clubs, lads not interested because they can’t have a beer with their mates before the game ( most of us would prefer that to be) and 1bloke even talking about turning promotion down if we manage to win it!, I can’t understand it this board should be buzzing, never thought I’d say these 3 words but come on Leeds, !

Stevie f, for some reason in this country a lot of people just look for the negative it seems to be ingrained. Just look at the news everyday and journalists line of questioning it’s shocking. It’s not about just ‘happy clapping’ but we have so much to be positive about. Time for some people to try and change their mindset.

I leave this board for a few months I come back and Stevie F is the beacon of positivity 😂 what is going on!
I agree with you though. We have a chance. that's all we can ask for.

Redtree nobody is saying we play sparkling football, I just think we have. a chance we haven’t had for years, results matter, not stylish performances now, I can’t understand why no one seems interested.

Well said stevie, probably the same moaners who slagged ben osborne off for most of last season, the bloke who is playing for a team pushing for european qualification now.

It's exciting to be in the top six for so long, and reaching the play-offs would be a testament to a good manager with not a lot of talent at his disposal.

Positivity is what we need on this site but a lot more importantly the players and SL . Belief they can reach the playoffs and then it’s anyone’s for the taking. It would be great to see 3/ 3 wins to set up the next 3 games but a win against Swansea is the initial boost we need.

Its a testament to a good coach dealing with the cards he's been dealt.
We can't fail to get three points from three games so chill its job done as far as qualifying.
Its then down to us having to beat brentford or fulham or both to gain promotion.
Its just a massive pity we can't be there to cheer them on and have a day out.
Thats the problem for me I'm someone that has to be there, anything else isn't the same.
Hadn't been able to pick my granddaughter up for 14 weeks till last weekend and boy did i make the most of it.
I can't wait to go and watch forest at the city ground and away grounds again, only then can i enjoy because with no atmosphere, even fake its not for me.
