Well, I woke up this morning and I’m feeling fine.

There's somethin' special on my mind

As much as the feeling of nerves and worry is horrible , atleast it is for the right reasons , this is what it's all about .. this is what we pined for when we were shit

People saying its the biggest game for years, for me the L2 play off games were bigger.
I honestly believe are existence would have been in jeopardy if we gaunt got promoted.

Fuck this up and we'll be good to try again next season.

Its an unusual opportunity with a low points threshold though. One year Fulham had 80 and finished 6th

There is a real possibility the relegated teams will be very strong and a couple of promoted will be as well

Sieze the opportunity and all that

Hoping its prematch nerves (or my anxiety) but I have a growing feeling that the wheel comes off the wagon today. Birmingham have nothing to play for except pride and local rivalry and the opportunity to mess with us. Their fans are certainly up for it. And I do not like the idea of Juke and Deeney bullying our young CBs. The pressure is all on us.. can our players handle it ? Kelly is the only one (I know of) that's been through the playoffs previously.

If you're going up to the CBS, have a great day. The atmosphere should be electric and let's hope the football is as well.

My prediction. Viktor - unplayable today.

Need Hamer on song to find him with those through balls (as against Reading)

You can never be sure with Vik whether he'll carry over the frustration of not scoring any of his chances last week positively and get a couple of goals, or get completely greedy and try to do everything himself.

I’ve a horrible feeling about today being an anti climax. Players don’t turn up, referring decision influences a goal for them you name it today.

You watch Birmingham raise there game to another level not seen all season. If that happens what’s they say them as players and cheating their supporters?

Believe me this will be a really tough game.

Yup and every one of us would have taken this position pretty much at any point over the last 44 games!

Yer but we'll be raising our game too!

People talk about us bottling big attendances, but they're pretty much all been against teams better than us, which explains why we usually lost!

Not the case case today and as long as the lads relax and just play, we'll be fine

 

[OldBedrocker]

87 Cup final on itv4 right now.
Is that an omen for a 3-2 win?

I always feel like this before big games.

Getting ready to head to the pub now. The atmosphere will be incredible today

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Not nervous at all. We've got this. Have a little faith.

 

[SkyBlueSam01]

In Barcelona and just walked past this...

We've got this today

Hoping the Birmingham players still have the shits to be honest!

 

[Boosh]

People who don’t attend tend to care a little less let’s be honest

 

[jordan210]

I can't make it today. As Partners dad is in hospital. So no doggy day care boo.

But I thought I was doing ok. But pretty nervous. Esp knowing I have to watch it on a dodgy stream that will be 5 min s behind

 

[Greggs]

No Vik apparently

 

[Boosh]

No Vik apparently

Walker in then, most will be delighted

Crewe and Accrington Stanley weren’t better teams…

that being said - how we lost that Crewe game I’ll never know

Still strangely calm.

No - but the amount of chances we missed were ridiculous.

I'm in block 23. Where on the half way line are you? I'll be there from around 14.15 so let's have a chat.

Won’t be there that early, I’ll meet you outside the anecdote at half time
