Match Thread Middlesbrough vs Coventry City Play off Semi final 2nd leg Match Thread - Wednesday 17th May (6 Viewers)

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.

Doctor Dawkins ITK.

What's the thoughts on the ref now that highlights have been watched?

Doesn’t change what I saw live

 

[Matt smith]

Happy bloke tonight, PUSB

Positive news being reported tonight on the injured players from Saturday.

Return of Palmer (if match fit) suggests the squad is stronger than Sundays.

 

[Earlsdon-Loyal-Blue]

Absolutely bricking it now, this is like the night before a trial! Going to be a long day and a 3am return, let’s hope it’s worth it. PUSB

Typical! Comparing a CCFC game to one of your fucking Bill Bright court appearances.

PUSB!

Feel sick just thinking about tomorrow!

We do not want to play Luton !

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

We do not want to play Luton !

I’d love to play either of these teams at Wembley

True but if I had the choice - Luton are very quick - very physical

 

[shmmeee]

True but if I had the choice - Luton are very quick - very physical

Id rather lose to Luton than Sunderland. If we win then whatever.

 

[Mcbean]

So you have your wish - just got to do our part !

 

[SkyblueDad]

Luton don’t have an ounce of football throughout their team on the big Wembley pitch we should run them ragged.

Career ender then if Dawkins says that

We do not want to play Luton !

We've drawn against them twice this season (and could have won each game) and we're one of the best teams in the league at defending set pieces - they would have been my choice to play if we get there.

‘Was it all worth it? Course it fucking was!’

All jokes aside, you’ve seen more courts than Tim Henman.

Crazy they managed to finish 3rd in the league without playing any football!

 

[Perryccfc]

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.

 

[CBS16]

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

 

[Johhny Blue]

Where’s the Luton match thread?

 

[Johhny Blue]

Don’t worry about it.
Worry more about playing a very very effective Man City

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.

More like a home game for them surely?

Nah, Fadz won't let Haaland out of his pocket!

Didn’t help Tottenham

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.

 

[coop]

If someone told us that we would of been in a one game shoot out to get to Wembley we would of bitten there hand off so we'll done to the team and what will be will be.But we can do this.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Safe travels to everyone going

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Safe travels everyone! Perhaps I’m delusional, but I’m backing us to win somehow!
