I can tell you for a fact that not one of the other 3 will be wanting to play us. So Fulham will try to beat us and reading and udders will be keeping an eye on our result. Stop wetting yourselves about Fulham. Exactly this. I've been saying for a while there's a reason Fulham are below us. They're not flipping Barca.

GMOwl72 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Think udders will beat Cardiff with a draw or defeat for Reading. if so a win or loss would see us play Fulham, draw we play Reading. Then again if Udders draw.....oh ffs lets just play the game with a second string and let fate take over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 From a financial point of view, attendance wise anyway, all four clubs would probably prefer the current positions. Reading and Fulham is almost a local derby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Beat Fulham, then beat em again twice in the playoffs. Shut em up and give the media summat else to talk about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd maybe put Hirsty and Stobbs on the bench and give them 10 minutes at the end score permitting. I'd love us to stuff Fulham because if we lose it'll just give the lobbers more reason to call them the in form side but if we beat them it'll shut them up for good. It would be silly to get a key player injured in this game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A defeat would probably more beneficial. Hence the title 'undead rubber ' Can't think of a fixture that was so strange in terms of how to approach it.

Beauchief Owl Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) 50 minutes ago, Tamworthowl said: So what a lot of us are saying is: Fulham are definitely 6th so will play the reserves; wednesday and Reading and Huddersfield don't want Fulham in the semis so will all play to lose (perhaps not deliberately, but won't try too hard to win). What message does that send out to Fulham? Yet there are other posts questioning why the media focus on Fulham as the favourites. We should go for the win, whilst resting any players with knocks and tiredness. We should show Fulham that we're not worried about meeting them over two more games if that's how it pans out. I agree, Tamworth. We beat Fulham three times last season, let's do it again. Let them worry about us not the other way round. Certainly don't want to lose so that we play Reading or Huddersfield, that shows fear on our part. There's no guaranteed passage to the final, we've all earned the right to be in the play-offs over 46 matches. Play a weakened team so that players can be rested but play to win. We have the best current form, the best squad, the best fan base and the experience gleaned from last year's play-offs. We should be feared by the others.

asteener1867 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Call me a rampant optimist, but say there is a bit more to these HMRC Newcastle investigations....and they were docked points....Would finishing 3rd have any merit, just in case?

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Rather go all out to give Fulham a good beating, get them running scared for any play-off meeting between the two clubs! But I suspect we'll see the squad rotated and the key players rested for the semi's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Huddersfield are resting players already. Tells us everything we need to know really. However, I'm not sure resting players for two games is that great. Seems a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a long time Its fine margins mate, between being ready and being rusty...I would play Lee for a half, although it looks like he's virtually up to speed already.... Wonder about Hutch and how near he is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
