Rather finish 10th than play offs

The stupidest post ever seen. The worst outcome of the play offs = the equivalent of 10th.

I don't think either Rovers or Burnley will reach the play offs ....

Burnley should but i have my doubts if they really want too...

[thenodrog]

Good job we didn't do as you wish in '91 Abbey! The past 20 odd years would have had a far different outcome.

[LDRover]

Probably not, bearing in mind we we went up in '92

At Burnley last week speaking to a Dingle, said they'd sold 1,200 tickets for Yeovil......must have been given them for Xmas free by the club?

The away allocation is 1400 and they've nowhere near sold out, as tickets are on general sale on the day of the game.

That's from someone who went to buy 3 today, not me by the way!!

Why is everyone obsessed with playoffs ? I take it most have never experienced them . They are the most awful things ever. I said after we won at Wembley I never ever want to experience them or my kids experience them . Win or lose they scramble your head.

Even when we won it was awful, so I know exactly what you mean.

Chelsea, Swindon, Palace and Leicester, nightmare.

[OJRovers]

I think I would be physically sick during a play off final between rovers and burnley. As if a normal game isn't tense enough, imagine the dingles ending the 35 year record at wembley

Defeat sending rovers into administration.... not even worth thinking about!

What do you do when you go to a football game, or watch one on tv? What do you take from it? What goes through your mind? Which bits do you enjoy? Which bits do you dislike? Which bits do you understand? Which bits don't you understand? Do you face in the right direction?

Rishtons general pillock returns .

Have you been through the play offs. ?

After that day I said I never wanted to go through another bout of play offs. . Yes it was amazing but as Gav has said .. Chelsea Swindon palace etc where a damn site worse .

Horrendous feeling . Top two or 7th for me .playoffs worse thing ever invented in footy .

Looks like Ashley Barnes to Burnley circa £450k from Brighton.

Ings to Liverpool ????

[Tom]

My only experience of playoffs that I remember are good ones

Loved the second leg against Derby as id never witnessed anything like it, didn't we watch it on a big screen at Ewood?

And the final was great i was only 7 or so but remember yellow balloons all over service stations and t shirts hailing 'big fat jack' (as he was then known)

I was young and naive then though I don't think I could hack it these days

According to my Burnley mate Ings will not be sold in the window. If they don't go up he will be sold and Barnes will step into his shoes having been at the club for six or so months.

It's called succession planning - something we have lacked for around three years now.

Make that 15 years .... unless one considers Per Pederson to have been an adequate replacement for Alan Shearer.

[Ricky]

Leicester looking good. 4-1 up now. Hoping this dents Derbys confidence a bit for the second half of the season.

[somersetrover]

Another penalty for Leicester. They are this seasons Crystal Palace in terms of getting dodgy penalties.

[Ricky]

Not really dodgy though, it was pretty blatant.

[Tom]

Maybe not dodgy this time but Nugent has scored a ridiculous amount of penalties this season

[Ricky]

8 or 9 now I think they said. He's missed a few as well.

[Tom]

Wednesday 1-0 at home to Leeds

If it stays like that we have a real chance today to put Us right in it

[Salgado Is A Hero]

2-0 down now

Unless Birmingham win at Brighton, we won't be in the top 6 but hopefully we are soon enough

[Tom]

Brighton v Brum

Ipswich v QPR

Watford v Reading

All 3 could win but all tricky games, lets just make sure we do our bit

This game seems to me to be simultaneously making our win at Leeds look less impressive and the point on Boxing Day more impressive.

[Ricky]

Red card after the lad had been on the pitch 60 seconds.

[Guest Norbert]

Sounds like the player was trying to outdo Fabio.

I'm impressed.

[West Yorks Rover]

3-0

Why would Leeds want to buy Cameron Stewart from Hull and Kebe(is he any good?)

I thought their ex Reading manager knew this league, looks like the owners have conned the fans again about having money to spend

though.

[rovers11]

Brighton v Brum

Ipswich v QPR

Watford v Reading

All we can focus on is winning our games. If keep winning then the team's around us will slip up at some point.

[Ricky]

4-0

On the comments about Kebe, he's a player I've always been impressed with when I've seen him. Think he'll be a good signing for Leeds.
