Biggest Match since Wembley 2000? 07:08 - Apr 30 with 2508 viewsLA_Tractor_Boy

Is tonight our biggest match since Wembley 2000?

I can't think of too many other contenders considering the potential rewards.

Maybe some of the crucial matches we dropped points in towards the end of '01/'02 and '04/'05. Or the '14/'15 play-off semis against Nodge. The matches towards the end of last season were all massive too because promotion was a must.

Yes it is. Although we just need to avoid defeat. This is the biggest game of KM era

Not sure it's any bigger than the play off matches we've had since then. It's in the same ball park but effectively tonight leaves us a game away from promotion whatever the outcome, whereas the play off second leg ties were one game away from promotion or bust.

If we draw then huddersfield becomes the biggest match since wembley 2000. Even if we win, huddersfield then becomes the biggest game.

Yes. Of sheer importance yes. The 2015 play-off game was a pair of games to get us to a final where we'd then be 50/50. This game to me feels like a ticket to the premier league if we do not lose given what would be to come on Saturday.

On a par with Bolton away in 2002. But we are in a much better place mentally.

This game is bigger then all of those that you reference.

A win tonight puts us 1 point away from the premier league (at worst). That means it’s bigger than a play off semi final second leg when at a minimum you have 1 more game to win.

It's also nonsense. The Inter line up that night was incredibly strong and close to full strength, think Vieri wasn't fit but given our own absentees and that they still had Italy international Nicola Ventola up top, I'm not sure the jibe really lands: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/uefa_cup/1667051.stm

You should be more focused on your game with Birmingham rather than crying about your bigger and better rivals.

No
We don't achieve anything tonight
Just avoid defeat tonight & the next game becomes the biggest, most important game

If we lose tonight, we have to assume that Leeds will beat Soton as they've come over all rubbish & they'll be resting players for play-offs & their ex budgie manager won't want to gift automatic to Ipswich
If the unthinkable happens & we miss auto, then certainly the 2nd leg & hopefully the final become the biggest/most important

...at the risk of stating the obvious!

COYB's!

Whilst those are all great memories and occasions. The Premier League is so difficult to get to and it has such a huge effect on a club that it has a larger significance than any cup if it's not a final. The only similar situation would be a last day match to stay in the Premier League.

I only wish we’d lost to Inter, then we would have had an excuse for an anniversary celebration match.

Unfortunately we beat them.

I find it amazing that it’s not literally a must win match. It certainly feels like one, if for no other reason than buying us a little breathing space (you never know when a referee error or a keeper flap will throw a lead away).

Because, unlike a certain vomit-coloured fan forum, we are secure enough to continue to engage with people outside our own county.

On Wreath Of The Barclay, anybody suspected of saying anything remotely positive about Town is met with immediate abuse and then deleted.
Heaven forbid that any form of balance or counter-view reach the depths of Norfolk.

Assuming we don't lose tonight, then Huddersfield will be the equivalent of the PO Final in 2000, the same prize. Could argue its worth more now in terms of the financial rewards, our momentum as a club, McKenna, etc.

Although this will sound illogical, I don't think it will be a bad thing if we "only" draw tonight and go into the Huddersfield game with the clarity of purpose of needing to win. Although only needing a draw is obviously easier on paper, when you combine the psychological effects of the pressure, needing to win might actually relax and bring the best out of the players rather than playing in the fear of not losing...

Who knows. Whatever, I'm confident that McKenna and the boys will get it done over the next 2 games. We've basically been on track all season.

Enjoying the journey.
