Dream Playoff Opponents

[Darrenbot]

It's looking likely if we get promoted it'll have to be via the Playoffs so who are the other 3 teams you'd want to be up against in the playoffs and any teams you definitely wouldn't want to be up against?

For me the 3 i'd want in it with us would be Sheff Utd,QPR and Middlesbrough.3 teams i would be confident of putting up a good fight with.

2 teams i'd rather not come up against are Huddersfield and Forest,just think we'd struggle with them.

[Upside Down]

None. They all get stricken with the pox and forfeit. 

That is the dream.

[DeeCee]

Huddersfield, Luton, Qpr for me

[davulsukur]

Scunthorpe

[J*B]

With a full strength squad? If we can field:

Kaminski

Nyambe Lenihan JVH Wharton Pickering 

Travis Rothwell

Brereton Dack Khadra 

I’m confident we beat anyone but Bournemouth and Fulham. Obviously you want to avoid Huddersfield and Forest in the semi final, but in the final I’d take either of them as well.

There's so little between most teams in this league tha it would be pretty much 50/50 whoever we got and sorry to be a misery but I wouldn't be especially excited about facing any of the teams, I'd just want us to win(obviously) and get it out of the way so the fun can really start! Then we can look forward to at least one season out of this dreary fkin league.

i would`nt want to play luton,bunch of dirty ***** with a ground that is a fortress for them

[47er]

If we are in the play-offs, let's hope it doesn't go to penalties!  😂

[tomphil]

All beatable as long as it isn't Bournemouth.

[Dreyski]

If we're dreaming, a couple of non-league teams.

[Upside Down]

If we were really dreaming the we'd finish 1st or 2nd.

[matt83]

There’s no side, perhaps Fulham aside, in this division we couldn’t beat. But the flip side of that coin is there’s no side we couldn’t lose to either. I don’t think we’ll finish top 6 but if we did it’s a lottery.

Could you even name 5 penalty takers?

Dack 

Rothwell 

BBD 

Struggling after that and I'd only be really confident with Dack taking one.

Khadra, if he could take his from wide outside the box.

[lraC]

I am sitting on the fence with this, which begs the question why I have posted. I guess I just hope like hell that we get there and don't really care who we get, as we are on with a 1 in 4 chance then, which is far better than watching the play offs, having just tasted relegation to the third tier.

No Bucko in your best 11?  🤔

[Mercer]

Doesn't matter who we get.

With a reasonable run of the ball we can and will beat any of them.

Won just over £100 with Rovers winning yesterday and it's all gone on Rovers to be promoted at 9/2.

You'd have been better off putting it on us to win the play offs at 11/2

Anyone but Luton. Would not want to play that lot in the playoffs.
