Why is it on Monday?
I assumed it was related to old big ears, but I've just noticed that there are PL fixtures on the Saturday.

There was some bullshit reason for it and why the 3pm TV blackout could be broken.

I’m hoping they don’t kick shit out of Vik and Hamer, on the proviso we meet them in the playoffs.

 

[SBT]

People actually starting to notice

Glad to see the Mail showing some love by namechecking all the key players - Kelly, Norton-Cuffy and “young loan signing” Josh Eccles.

Ive been on edge about this game all day...and there is a week to go

 

[covcity4life]

Millwall v Sunderland Blackburn selected as the Sky live match.

Guess that makes sense, them showing us live against Boro 3 times in a week or so might get a bit boring...

Isn't there two live games simultaneously on sky?

Who's the ref for this, anyone know??
Edit; just seen it’s John Busby, let’s hope he stops the shirt pulling ans sneaky nudges on Vik

I’m predicting a 1-1 draw, or a dogged 2-1 win. Can’t see us ballsing this up, the players believe they can do it.
Cometh the hour, cometh the playoffs. ⚽️

 

[Covcraig@bury]

As long as them tramps from the south Newcastle suburbs don’t get in the play offs I will be very happy .

I think that’s right - well I’m bloody hoping so anyway

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

narrow loss - but enough to scrape playoffs

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

In honour of Mr Monkey from early on in the season

 

[Hobo]

Think we're 4th for the amount of games lost. If we'd have held on v Swansea at home or Wigan away we'd be qualified now.

Every team can look back on moments like that.

They can. The Millwall game is more pertinent though as Moore had a shocker to mean a six point swing.

 

[jordan210]

He loves a yellow card.

also we have not won when he has reffed us. Lost twice drawn Twice

 

[Nick]

I'm not nervous yet, it will be like the League 1 season checking the league to make sure we were still top before it was nulled.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Got club coach tickets booked but two different pick up times listed. Anyone else going on them?

Enjoy

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Enjoy

As above some confusion on pick up, different times on CCFC site and coach booking

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

We've come a long way in 5 y ears, more of the same on Monday please.

I’m getting nervous. It’s impossible for me to imagine anything other than catastrophe, a glorious failure like us being 2 up with 10 to play and conceding 3 at the end and Sunderland getting a late winner.

I’m not a pessimist but for some reason after all these years it feels impossible that we could get back to the top where we were for my childhood and young adult years.

I believe in the team we have and that they have the mental strength to get over the line. It’s just fear taking over….

I've been like this since I woke up Sunday, and it's getting worse the nearer the day. I can't comprehend how shit I will feel if it all goes pear shaped by 5pm Monday, what was it Shankley said lol

Imagine losing the playoff final on pens though, that journey home would be awful.

Imagine winning it.

Well yeah, get home 4 days later.

Robins tight-lipped on Sheaf. I think he's fit to play. Also he gave a vague answer last week about Kasey Palmer. Wouldn't surprise me to see him involved in the Play Off games.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

The closer we get the more nervous I am about it. Think we’ll be out if we lose so going to have to get that draw.

 

[Evo1883]

Don't even feel nervous yet

It wouldn’t be the Mail if they didn’t talk bollocks.

I heard last week Palmer is very close fingers crossed.

Was it from the same source that told you about Vik's new contract?

A player, sort of.
