There is the small problem of almost certainly having to face one of them in the Final though.

Could be WBA?

..and we've got a better chance of beating one of those two in a one off game at a neutral venue , rather than a 2 legged affair, the second gane of which at their place.

They might just freeze on the day, Middlesbrough style??

With us still in a hunt for the play-offs everybody was hoping we would strengthen the squad. Instead we loan out our 2nd best striker and bring in this character - effectively weakening our striking options.

I don't detect a huge desire to get promotion really. I can't imagine Ipswich playing like we did against Leicester, and in fact they didn't.

It was a decision of monumental stupidity. Even if Idah was looking for the exit door, he should have been told.................'you've got a five year contract here son that you were happy to sign so you're going nowhere in January. If you still want out in the summer then you can go. Meanwhile you score the goals to get us up' 

[king canary 7,695]

Based on what I've seen, from the current top 6 I'd say this is my order of preference on who to play...

West Brom

Southampton

Leicester

Ipswich

Leeds

[Capt. Pants 4,318]

Oh look Hull have equalised

You'd put Leicester ahead of ipswich after what we saw us do there today??!

Yes.

Leicester weren't very good, we were just worse. Also to add that Leicester finishing in the playoffs having blown a huge lead means they'll be coming into them in relatively poor form which makes it harder.

The energy from 60 mins onward is questionable. 

It’s not exactly hard to get drugs in Ipswich if the news is to be believed.

and, I mean, look at the state of the inhabitants.

[Capt. Pants 4,318]

We potentially have 3 more games against Ipswich. They won't finish lower than 3rd and we won't get 5th, so it's a play-off final against either Southampton or WBA. 

If the scum get the autos, then I can't see a trip to Wembley happening as Leeds or Leicester would be too strong for us over 2 legs.

Ipswich are an ordinary lucky side who are blagging it. Whatever they are or arent they will give you chances to score, we barely got a sniff vs Leicester over the 2 games this season.

Plus theres the small matter of that 15 yr unbeaten thing.....

In my opinion now the only chance we have is Ipswich in the semis and West Brom in the final. I can’t see Wagner getting anything out of Leicester, Leeds and Southampton

We haven’t got the players to get past Leicester, Leeds or Southampton 

[Creedence Clearwater Couto 1,310]

Leeds looking average.

I think we have enough quality in the team but what we are lacking is heart, fight and desire to go out and do it. This teams mental strength is paper thin. My biggest concern in facing those 3 teams though is that Wagner will resort to the tactics of today and Southampton

Hull showing how to perform away from home to a top side. Amazing what a competent manager can do....

All the best.

Leeds never seem able to just win a game straightforwardly. They always appear to be having to force it, often with some late drama

If that’s the case, why are we the third best team in the league at fighting back and winning after going behind? 

Honestly, one defeat to one of, if not the strongest team in the league and half of our support go to pieces.

Mentally weak.

Or just mental?

Take your pick.

The difference in quality between us and those teams. There has been plenty of examples in matches this season where we are mentally fragile and fall to pieces

Get in Farke 

[Virtual reality 760]

Nice. Luckily barn door wasn’t on the pitch to take it 

[daz 72]

Thought we're gunna miss the penalty with summer ville and normal pen taker piroe squabbling, phew. 

[Ken Hairy 3,795]

Can't believe someone is going to end up with 90+ points and only get play offs

[GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,815]

Leicester still with a game in hand....even if we can just stop those c#nts winning on Saturday,  it should hopefully be enough to see them drop to 3rd

[Satriales 710]

Feels weird wanting dirty Leeds to win, especially with our ex manager at the helm.

[Creedence Clearwater Couto 1,310]

There is still a scenario that sees the season end with Ipswich Still a championship club, having still not beat Norwich, and memorable highlights being the highest amount of points for a non promoted side and defeat to Maidstone. 

[Ken Hairy 3,795]

What a goal!!!!!

[cambridgeshire canary 6,852]

Was that a smile I saw from Farke?
