Will Albion make the playoffs, simple yes or no

[Blues Rock DJ]

after all the hype on here......hopefully not, no way are we 'PLR' .

 

[paul pring]

like the players we have to believe

 

[BensGrandad]

Heart = Yes
Head = No

Thats my view. We have screwed up too many times this season. Reading and us both to win 1 - 0 and we miss out.

 

[portslade seagull]

Yes we will, Reading will slip up ( please )

 

[Geestar]

Yo.

 

[Sheebo]

No - and we must then sack everyone to do with the first team. We ve been a failure again & it's not good enough - Oscar out - he's won ONE LESS game than our disastrous 4th place finish last year - I won't be able to take it if we don't win Sat or if we win & Reading do - there must be someone to blame - and I'm gonna find them!!!

 

[Barham's tash]

Had our chance. Muffed it!

Great use of the word 'muffed' in it's original connotation.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Yo.

Pinkman? Is that you?

Micky Quinn on Talkshit said he thinks we'll do it when he was asked earlier.

Yeah bitch!

Voted yes yes we will but that's out of pure desperation, i have already resigned myself to another year watching championship football which i am quite looking forward to as i am looking forward to going to the city ground on Saturday regardless of the outcome.I just want to see a good game with obviously a resounding away win. SEAGULLS.

 

[LamieRobertson]

i can see it swinging back and forth on saturday ...torture

 

[SouthCoastOwl]

I know, it's pathetic given how unimportant it is, maybe we should revert to what sandwich filling NSCers prefer for lunch.

Cheese and onion

Just to be different, my heart says no (I'm a natural pessimist, and it's clear that from our inconsistent performances we don't deserve a play-off place) but my head says yes. Reading have been just as inconsistent as us (or they'd be more than a point ahead of us) and a quick skim of statto.com shows that their record against the top half of the table and their home form are both poor. They have a harder game than us; we have a decent chance of getting a better result.

That assumes that Burnley still turn up and play like a top-two side, that Reading fail to bring their A game, that Forest don't suddenly get their act together, and that we're actually up for it. Plenty that could go wrong there, of course, or it wouldn't be football, but I think the bookies' odds are assuming too much in Reading's favour.

 

[Invicta]

Yes for me - been a strange season so this would be par for the course to sneak in at the death

 

[Driver8]

I have booked a weekend away playoff final weekend thus GUARANTEEING we will be there.

 

[Caveman]

Nope, we ****ked up against Blackpool, be lucky to get a draw. So a big fat sad no.

 

[pasty]

No. We'll draw at Forest, but Reading won't lose to Burnley.

 

[Biscuit]

No.

After the win at Blackpool, Dyche was at pains to point out to the gathered press how proud he was of Burnley's unbeaten away record in 2014. This was to counter-balance claims vy some journalists that Burnley were nervous due to two successive home defeats after going more than a year unbeaten at Turf Moor.

I just have a feeling that Dyche and his players will want to extend this run of away results since the 1-0 Boxing Day defeat at Middlesbrough.
