Do you think we will win the play offs if we end up in them?!

That depends. "We've been no good at them in the past" is irrelevant, as only Murty, Harper and Hahnemann remain from our last play off side. I don't think you can count Henry tbh, seeing as he was in the depths of our academy.

We'll finish 1st or 2nd.
Just keep booing the team, it's a real inspiration!

We'll finish top 6, which is good enough for me. Will we go up? Far too early to say. Wolves are about the only club who can say they're looking good for it. And it's still very early days for them.

We've got a good chance in the play offs, our record against the better teams is pretty good. But we do seem quite fragile still, so it's a tough one. Especially without knowing who we'd be playing.

That statement is as bad as Schards' dull and uninspiring sea change. It's far too early, far too tight and we're far too inconsistent to be making certain statements like that. We've still got a good chance, but that's all you can say right now.

So far we've done enough to ensure about a top 10 finish. Even with a poor January IMO, but thats about it.

That's what I've always believed.

IMO i dont think you could really call preston and burnley dull or uninspiring,
weak capitulations yes, but not dull
plenty of chances, endeavor, just profligate, and folded at the end

that was the first ive seen where nothing worked at all, and everyone was shit

QPR and Forest weren't exactly fine adverts for Championship football either.

Ipswich was pretty bad. But I don't think we've had many especially bad performances. Yesterday hardly sounded dull. Even if it wasn't good.

Yup. Had the pleasure of both. Decent pub lunch for Forest (a) so not all bad.

goal, goal disallowed and a couple of more chances that could/should have been put away...

We got battered for most the game but still could have had a draw just as easily as Saints could have won by 4 or 5. Take the first 60 minutes and I'd call it dull and uninspiring, but not the whole game.

But thats judging by commentary, not being at the match sadly.

I hadn't seen anything so one-sided at home since Fulham last season.

Perhaps you should have stayed for the second half then ?
