Love the sentiment. We've won four on the bounce which is our longest run with Carlos. I can't remember last time we did five, six, seven. Even Chelsea and man utd etc struggle with 10 which is what we'd need for the universe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j17tjp Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 as Derby can't make the POs now, do we reckon they'll turn up in sandals & beach towels ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticOwl Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Why do people fear Fulham? They aint on some glorious run. This is the first weekend they made the play offs. We have been in the play off for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last 10 games, 20 points, 22 goals. Or 48 points from their last 24 games, scoring 53 goals. That's a pretty decent run however you look at it.

Fulham are 3 points and 3 goals better off (GD) than us. Not much of a difference. As I said....why do people fear Fulham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owly Mowly Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 The fear of Fulham is due to their expansive attacking style and number of goals they've scored. For me, I think they are the type of team we would relish playing against. We are much better against the technical sides rather then the physical ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are much better against the technical sides rather then the physical ones Exactly, half our problems at Hillsborough this season has been playing the teams that "park the bus" or the "wall" as Carlos calls it. Play football against us and you are in trouble as Newcastle and Norwich found. Also, Play Off's games are not league games. Very different style of play in the semi's and the finals are often cagey affairs. Edited April 18, 2017 by iliveinthenow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Ipswich looked class this weekend gone. But, of course they weren't playing us ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sMacLean Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Leeds the only side in contention who i wouldn't want to play as their style is horrible for us. We need teams that attack so the Fulham and Huddersfield style is fine for us.Reading are a weird mix of all styles for periods of their games but probably give us enough chances to beat them. In reality all of them are mid-table squads with a few bits of extra class like Cairney,Wood etc that have generally over achieved this season so we probably will be viewed as clear favourites against any of them which usually isn't our strong point.If we secure our own place first of course.
