Looks like the dream of automatic is over, I just hope we can keep our position in the playoffs.

I would say that ended with the home defeat to Charlton, for seasons now our away form has been awful.

Unless you get good away results you're never going to go straight up, I can't remember the stats off the top of my head but out of the top 6 we have won the least games on the road.

Playoffs is one big lottery if we do end up in them we need one of the top two spots so the return leg is at home.

To me our season is slowly crumbling away, two big home games now this week, 6 points are a must.

I think if the weekends game against wednesday is anything less then a win then yes the 2nd place spot is out of the window. If the teams above us slip up like 1 or 2 have been doing in previous games and we get the results then i can't see us getting back up there behind those welsh boys!"

Finally a win, and an absolutely crucial one at that against the form team of the Championship. I am hoping that has done massive boosts to the players confidence.

Even more importantly, every other team around us seems to be falling away, they all lost last night.

Massive massive massive game next. Have to win them all now.

Come on Leicester!

I hope not, I am concerned about beating you, as you seem to have turned a corner. We have Palace next then Watford, both can't buy a win at the moment.

Plus, my boss is a Forest fan, so I really really don't want it to come down to Us vs You. If we lose, he will be ripping me. If we win, I get a load more work to do.

Lose lose!

fantastic game last night, not one for the nerves though !

There is no way pearson has lost the dressing room as some have suggested, great fight from the players.

I will be stting bricks if it comes down to the Forest game, our record there is so bad !

To get into the playoffs was good. To beat Forest to do it was amazing.

Back in January when we were 2nd with games in hand if someone had said that we would sneak into the playoffs on the last day I would have laughed out loud. However seeing how st we have been over the last few months I'm now just happy we are there. We now have as much chance as the other 3 teams left.

Good result yesterday although the game for leicester was a little sloppy in places. Let's just hope we don't slip up now and get ourselves to wembley!!!!

We look and have looked very shakey at the back over the past 3 months or so and Watford have a fantastic ability to cut you open with a few passes and runs. Will Deeney be back for them too?

That goal however was absolutely cruicial. I just hope we dont sit back and back and invite pressure on to us.

According to yesterdays chat with troy and steve it would appear he is going to be back for the match at their ground. As you said. We got off pretty lightly but i think the ref made some pretty ste decisions throughout with goal kicks instead of corners etc and seemed intent on booking anyone for anything.


Lose to brighton at wemblistan? i think we will have a lot of momentum going into the final if we get there so it would be a tough call smile Would be good to get a win to wipe the smug grins off both zola and poyet!!

As a Watford fan I must agree that the referee was not up to the job, making absurd decisions through out the game (affecting both teams).

Was I dreaming that Watford didn't get a free kick for the first 40 mins?

It felt like he was going to bottle a big decision through out the match (like the lack of penalty to Watford vs Leeds), but thankfully he wasn't provided the chance to ruin an important match.

1-0 down at half time, all to play for!

We REALLY hate playing Nugent wink
