Our last 4 games have basically been cup finals. I feel the team are in that mindset whereas Middlesborough need to get up to speed. We have the momentum. I think we will make the final.

I am glad we drew on Monday and didn't win to be honest. I don't think there was anyway we were going to get the better of Middlesbrough 3 times in a row, so now I feel we just have to win once. Win one of the now two remaining games and the draw the other and we're in.

I think if we had beaten Middlesbrough they would have sought out revenge this coming Sunday. Now I feel they think they could settle for a draw this end and then think they would beat us at the Riverside.

I think we just need to win Sunday. I feel confident we could then go up there and bag a draw.

You should have said, "hello clean sheets" might have given him a laugh 😂

It’s going to be a different beast from the game on Monday when realistically we all knew a draw was going to be the most likely outcome.
If we draw again on Sunday or even lose by an odd goal it’s still not over as obviously we have 90 minutes to put it right and we are more than capable of turning it round.

Did anyone have any problems parking at Tesco for the Blues game? The cynic in me wonders if they'll try and enforce the 2 hour maximum stay unless you spend £50, a bit like the council nailed the exclusion zone for the Lionesses game.

Firstly, hello all - just registered and will only stick around until the play off semi final is finished.

I can honestly say we are not over confident or arrogant regarding our game with you - the idiots you see on the various social media platforms and the dregs of our fan base, we all have them. The level headed of us are very nervous and genuinely worried for this game.

We have a number of key players missing and rumours are they are not going to make the 1st leg - Howson, Forss, Ramsey and Fry. All of which would be certain starters. I am worried about our right side and though you found lots of joy there on Monday.

We genuinely concede most goals, at one point we did not care as we where scoring 2 or 3 ourselves but its all dried up a bit of late. I am hoping the couple of changes and players taking the foot off the gas once top 4 was confirmed will be a distant memory and we will come out like we have been for much of the second half of the season.

Managed to secure my ticket for Sunday, first time at the ground. I cant say i am looking forward to it because frankly i am bricking it.
