General_Grievous Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 ...qualify for the playoffs and get knocked out - after 2 or 3 great games (and money) Or finish seventh and avoid the above Obviously this is totally hypothetical question as we can't control anything, and we'd (nearly) all want to go up, but which would you choose???

Captain Sl-OWL-ly Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 TBF, for me it's a tough one, I ache to get back where we belong but after all the stick we've given the blunts !!!........ In fairness I'm probably only worried about what the Blunts will say cos I don't think we'll go up and I've enjoyed getting at em for so long I don't want to give them a reason to get off the hook... C'mon WEDNESDAY ! - we can do this ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General_Grievous Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Yeah I know what you mean about the piggies. It would be the best bit of their season Tough one to call... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darklord Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Pigs ain't in any position to laugh at us. Would like to hit the playoffs and lose. Even if it's just too say we have it a go and got in there. I suspect for most of us a year ago seventh would seem a dream. This season has been a great success. Imagine how great or team will be next year with another transfer window done. Get in the playoffs and is good experience for the players for next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Sl-OWL-ly Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hmm, many on here seem to think that if we miss this year next year is a cert, Villa, Newcastle and Sunderland (probably) may all have other ideas.. Next year could be one of the hardest the Championship has ever seen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robswfc Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Bet both Villa and Newcastle don't finish top 6 in Championship next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Playoffs of course. I want this fantastic season to last as long as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chow Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Finish 7th. I have said already the teams above are better as a whole collective squad. I think we should get rid of the trimmed players and replace them with better squad players. Can just see it, play Brighton in the playoff final and Zamora come on for the last 10 mins for them and get the winner in the last min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torres Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Make the play offs or don't make the play offs?? Hmmm tough one!!! Tune in next week for the question would you rather be alive or get eaten by a lion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 It would be devastating for fans to lose at Wembley but for the club it would be better than finishing 7th. As it could help with how we're perceived by players we want to recruit in the summer. And it would be a good learning experience, like Boro have done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Make the play offs or don't make the play offs?? Hmmm tough one!!!

Blatter Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 None of the local clubs are in a position to criticise and who cares about them anyway. Priority has to be a top 6 finish and give it a real go. Anything else would be cowardly. Next season is a complete unknown and could easily go badly wrong. We have to give it our very best whilst the opportunity is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 The day I take Wednesday not doing as well as possible so the pigs don't laugh at us is the day I'll go and start supporting Liverpool. Never gonna happen. The pigs arent far off total meltdown. If us losing in the playoffs is the highlight of their season, and it would be, then they can have it. Are people really that bothered? Just point out where they are, shuts em down in an instant. Our failures are their greatest triumphs. Hate Wednesday first, love united second. Always been the way. Always will be the way.

JackSWFC Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 would you rather pick up a scratch-card off the floor and see if you've won some money, only to find that it wasn't a winner. Or would you rather it blew away in the wind as you bent over to take it, and never know what could have been? Also, playoffs = another match in a packed out Hillsborough, which is always great to be a part of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Finish 7th. I have said already the teams above are better as a whole collective squad. I think we should get rid of the trimmed players and replace them with better squad players. I'm not sure about that but once in the play offs Carlos has just got to get his best team out on the pitch for three games. Got to take the play offs because it shows real progress.

Cambs Owl Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I would have happily taken a top six position at the beginning of the season. A play-off place, whatever happens, is an achievement. Yes, it will be a disappointment if we lose but so will not qualifying for a top six place. Sod what the pigs think or say they are irrelevant - they can't even qualify for a play-off place in the pub league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leaping Lannys Perm Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Losing in the playoffs would be better than finishing 7th because: A) it is an experience for the players so hopefully they would be more prepared next time. B) A playoff team will find it easier to attract a player than a 7th place team. Even if it is only 1 place different, it is still massive psychologically.

gurujuan Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 (edited) I'm quite relaxed about the situation, firstly I'm enjoying the football, and some great goals, secondly I feel we could be better prepared to go up next year. Of course, it's not a certainty that we would, but none of the sides coming down worry me. If Mr Chansiri is prepared to invest a similar amount again next season, but on 4 or 5 players good enough to take with us when we make it to the Premier, then we'll be more than a match for any side in this division. So for me, it's win win, if we sneak up now, then great, if not, I'd expect a cracking season next year. Edited April 13, 2016 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
