Is it natural just to have a little bit of doubt?
This is Ipswich Town after all…
I’m probably 90% sure we’ll do it, Exeter style as well…but the 10% doubt is horrible.
Still a job to do!

....I'm 90% certain we won't do it.
I've convinced myself that they score early, after us knobbing around with it at the back, and then we spend about 85 minutes failing to break down 10 men behind the ball.
FFS.

Yes it's that 10%. We've all seen weird things happen in football. It can happen to us. I've nasty images of how Dortmund were so geared up for a party on the final day of last year's Bundesliga season before massively fluffing it. It's entirely possible we have adverse moments on Saturday and hopefully everyone is calm enough to help the players through them. So agonisingly close though. |  |

I never underestimate the ability (even now) for us to go Full Ipswich in this sort of situation.
It might be worth noting that the Huddersfield/Leeds double is about 18/1 at the moment - £20 could well pay for playoff travel/tickets if we do manage to balls it up. | |

I’m allowing myself today to enjoy all the content and reaction then will be full on nervous again from tomorrow. Will need an early goal from us to settle the nerves or preferably an Exeter-style goalfest.
Imagine if we’re 0-0 at 70 mins and Leeds are up by a couples. Fk that. And fk it again. |  |

It's football. We could have a player sent off in the first 5 mins.
Like Cov last night Huddersfield can play pressure free for the first time in weeks. Makes them dangerous. But we are better than them and will have more to give. We just need to be ruthless and swarm the life out of them.
God an early goal would settle us right down!!! What I'd give for a few goals in the first half to us | |

Absolutely. I can't believe how many people are talking like it's a done deal.
Get the point first, THEN do all the celebrating you want.
It's not negativity, it's just common sense.
I've faith in the manager and the team, but the beauty of football is its unpredictability.
COYBBs!
If all goes well, we'll be going ecstatic on the pitch by 2.30pm. |  |

Nope. We do it in style. Huddersfield won't want to help Leeds out one bit.
3-0. 2-0 up after 20 mins.
Party time. |  |

Even if the worst happens and they sh1thouse a 1-0, Leeds still need to beat Saints, which isn't a foregone conclusion. |  |

Hudds are 12/1 so that’s a 92% Ipswich win/draw chance. Leeds are 3/5 to win so add 42% chance of that extra 8% (92 + 3)= 95% chance of auto promotion.
Feel any better? Didn’t think so. [Post edited 1 May 2024 16:21]

Last time Leeds got promoted, it was as a result of Huddersfield winning a game in which they had nothing to play for. |  | | |

Officially the chance of Huddersfield and Leeds winning is 7 percent. So we are 93 percent chance of being promoted on Saturday. | | | |

Looking at William Hill, can get 16/1 on Leeds top two or similar on a Leeds/Hudds double which is obviously the same thing at this point.
Might be worth a little 'insurance' bet so you get a consolation payout if the worst happens. |  |

Point of order: You should be adding 38.5% of 8 which is 3% so ONLY 95% chance of auto promotion.
Edit: And, oh buggar, you've already fixed it, sorry. [Post edited 1 May 2024 16:27]

I know there's many many reasons why we play out from the back, but that alone is why this saturday isn't a given.
You think of some of the goals we've conceded this season, Not many bar leeds, have torn us apart, and even then it was just gaping holes.
But we've had the occasional, one recently where we've gifted the ball to the opposition just outside our box... all it takes is one of those and a parked bus for the remainder of the game and it could be game over.
I just want us to be sensible, no corners of ours leading to attacks for them as coventry almost did to us, and no messing about outside our box, just pass sensibly and with space around you, if it aint there, no trying broadhead nug megs that don't come off, just hoof the damn thing. |  |

I never underestimate the ability (even now) for us to go Full Ipswich in this sort of situation.
It might be worth noting that the Huddersfield/Leeds double is about 18/1 at the moment - £20 could well pay for playoff travel/tickets if we do manage to balls it up. |
Lumped on, thanks |  |

Me and my son have put £50 each on a Huddersfield Leeds double - so £1800 insurance policy in place should the worst happen
I never win bets either but in the circumstances happy to lose the money | | | |

I'd just like us to stick to the style of play that has got us to 93 points from 45 games, one defeat at home, and the highest amount of goals in the division.
Huddersfield need to score 15, why would they park the bus at 1-0? |  | | |

They aren't going to score anywhere near 15 goals,
the fans might want them to roll over, but the players might fancy beating 2nd place town | |
