Who would you most want to avoid?

Come the Play Offs if we somehow make them, bearing in mind it will probably be at the expense of Stevenage and Oxford - which of the teams above would you most like to avoid?

For me, Posh go up automatically and I’d be more content with Derby, Bolton or Barnsley.

Posh the best side I've seen us play this season hands down. I wouldn't fancy us against them on that big Wembley pitch (which will no doubt be subject to a freak heatwave for the day we are there).

Would probably suit Bolton's counter-attacking style with the amount of space too. Couldn't take losing to them at Wembley.

Of course, we need to (a) Make the play-offs first; and (b) Make it to Wembley, neither of which is a given. If anyone can do it though, it's us.
 
Let's not worry about who we may play, let's just focus on getting into the Play Offs. We have some big games coming up, there are plenty of points to play for but we must find more consistency.
 
I've always been confident going in to the P/O's although weirdly I didn't have the same feeling as we played West Ham.
I kind of feel even now that if we did scrape in that we wouldn't get past the knock out stage.
There is just something about this group of players which doesn't give me confidence (and that goes for tonight as well although will be happily proven wrong as I was on Saturday!).

There wasn't much chance of the football authorities letting West Ham lose that day.

Then again if Dobbie hadn't bottled that sitter...

100% the same on all your points. This is not a playoff winning team. Total lack of consistency and at times desire.

When we are good we are very very good, but when we are bad we are dreadful.
 
Think I would most want to miss Peterborough, they know how to play us!
Bolton in the final at Wembley would be very spicy! Losing it would be unbearable!
 
The hardest part of the equation is finishing 6th or above. The easiest bit is smashing the playoffs as we always do ! No one to fear !
