I'll worry about what team we put on about a hour before kick off, no point in getting in a tizzy over it.

We can beat Boro with or without Hamer, they are a team that finished a few points a 1 place above us. It's not like we are playing Man City, their a decent team but really not unbeatable.
Exactly. Team needs to go out and give it there all. This boro team is on par with us. Nothing more, nothing less.

According to John Dawkins “he’s fit and ready” when referring to Gus in a tweet. Just for the benefit of everyone who was going to be awake tonight worrying.

Luton will be an incredibly tough game for us or Boro, but I would rather play them than Sunderland.

I really want to fancy us tomorrow, but I think Boro will have too much for us, but I hope and pray I’m wrong.

Can't understand people who wanted to play Luton over sunderland. We have a fantastic recent record against Sunderland and they were clearly punching this season, id have been far more confident should we make the final than I am playing a very very effective Luton

Luton won’t play as well on a big pitch. Suits us or Boro more, and both clubs will bring more fans. Plus there will be VAR so they can’t be too dirty.

Anyone else feeling a bit less nervous about the playoff second leg than for the last few matches (Reading / Brum/ twice against Boro)? For all those games I felt like we were suddenly in pole position and I was scared we might blow it. Now I feel we are slightly the underdogs, meaning we can go up there and give it a go without fear, and if it doesn't happen so be it.

Yeah, not really nervous.

We've done brilliantly to get here, to where we are now. Fantastic achievement.

Anything else is a bonus.

Only thing I don't want tonight is for us to be blown out of the water. After such a fabulous season.

Reality is though, we should get beaten. We can do it if everyone is fit and on their game, but Boro are very clear favourites for this one.

Anyway, whatever happens, we should be immensely proud.
