Have to get it done tonight having got the arguably tougher test done on Monday. Early goal for the love of God please, why did we stop doing that?
Well there's been an early goal but at the wrong end from our point of view! Twelve minutes gone as I type and we haven't got started...ETA: Two down now and we're making a team that's been fighting relegation for most of the season look like world beaters; so far it's been another really poor performance just when we needed exactly the opposite.

That was probably our worst performance of the season tonight - losing would have been bad enough but to get stuffed 4-0 was borderline embarrassing. Automatic promotion has almost certainly gone as a result and with the way we're playing I don't see us going up via the playoffs either - whoever finishes sixth will certainly fancy their chances if they watched the game tonight.
Worst performance I can remember watching in a long time. Tired and devoid of ideas and quality. I think the lack of experience in the squad is going to be our undoing. Gruev and Gray are fantastic footballers, but I don't think we'd have fared as badly last night if we'd had a tough, experienced centre mid controlling things.
Whatever happens happens now, but it's been a great season to watch. Regardless of the QPR result and our eventual fate, I'm just grateful we've got a team I can identify with and love again. We lost that when we had Aaronson, Roca, McKennie and others strolling around taking a wage without any passion for the badge.

Ipswich drawing tonight drags it out a little more. If they lose to Coventry then we can go up in 2nd if we beat Southampton. Unless Ipswich beat the dogs 9-0.
It will now go to the final day but I still reckon it's the play-offs for us; I think Ipswich will get at least a point at Coventry - and I'm sure they'll beat an already relegated Huddersfield in their last game - so that's them finishing second regardless of what we do against Southampton.And should they make the play-offs at WBA's expense I'm predicting Hull will take the final promotion spot; they play decent football and, crucially, they'd be entering the play-offs as a team in form whereas the other three aren't. So I'm actually hoping the Baggies manage to draw against Preston in their final game as I'd much prefer to face them - or even Norwich - in the play-off semi-final rather than Hull (albeit after Friday's performance I'm not sure I'd fancy our chances against anyone at the moment!).
Could be an exciting final day for the neutral. Coventry have nothing to play for now except pride so I’d expect Ipswich to get a point at the very least. Hull were fighting for everything last night. Then it’s in their hands on the final day. At least Sky are gonna get their ‘final day extravaganza’ … with their ‘As It Stands’ graphics they spaff over!

This is where I’m at. On the whole, it’s been a fantastic season. It wasn’t too long ago we looked like we wouldn’t lose again! Just a shame it’s the worst time to have form go completely out of the window. Whatever happens happens now, but it's been a great season to watch.

Good luck in the playoffs. Love from a happy Leicester Fan.
