There will never be a better time - we will never have as many points in another Championship season again so we must take the opportunity.
The jump between Championship and PL is massive, no team is ever ready, see Burnley last season.
Much like life you have to take the cards you are dealt, make the most of it and strive to be successful. Whatever team we have, we will need multiple signings to compete, but even spending a year up there will do a lot for the future financial stability of the club and raise our profile. |

Not really you expect the top teams to keep winning.
The sense of what if comes from the last 3 games - we never turned up at Norwich which is very disappointing (and also concerns me about upcoming play off games against anyone - the games with big hype we often just never get out of first gear see Leeds Away also), and those two home games we had to get at least 4 points. Two draws is what has cost us.
Still have a chance and we will all feel ore confident with 3 points on Saturday. |

Yes I thought that, I bet it is a load of people not understanding the additional priority levels on this match or just trying to put tickets in basket anyway! |

Scoring goals is the concern of the last few weeks.
We have conceded all season but we could accept that as we were often scoring 2+ goals a game.
At the moment, scoring goals looks hard work so that is my worry.
If we can get that sharp attacking play back then we should be ok. |

That looks horrible, everyone seems calm in that let us rest and let the others play, which is fine if they all continue dropping points. But the law of averages says they will eventually click back in gear and if we are 4 points behind Leeds, I am not convinced both the players and us as fans react well to that. Imagine the pressure if we go one down at Hull and are then almost out of the running, or desperation in last 15 mins if we need to find a goal? |

Intensity is key.
When we play with Intensity we look a brilliant team. When we try and slow it all down, it exposes us a bit I think. We do not havee Xavi and Iniesta to stroke the ball about, quick, one and two touch play is what we need.
Look at second half v Southampton, once we ramped up the tempo we were on top, even before the sending off. At Norwich we were so slow and pedestrian which is where we both struggle to break the opposition down and also we look more suspect at the back as we give the ball away more. See also Cardiff where we did not get out of first gear.
In fact all of our poor results this season (WBA also) have been where we have just not had any pace or intensity about our play - be it passing, closing down, or running between the lines. |

Success is a great feeling, working towards a goal unifies people and the atmosphere at the Southampton game for example tells you all you need to know.
You have to ride the wave of success, there is nothing saying if we don't go up we will build on this next year. If we go up we keep KM, if we don't I suspect it is 80% chance he goes. You only need a bad start with a new manager and all of the momentum of the last 2 years is gone.
So if we are 2nd with 5 to go, we have to cash in and go for it. |

Can't look too far ahead, next two are crucial.
Anything less than 6 points and it will be playoffs. With the result at Blackburn and Southampton we could afford one poor game (Norwich) but anything else than 3 home wins and one away win and we will not finish top two. [Post edited 8 Apr 20:01]

The break bothers me though, after most international breaks we often start slowly and seem to struggle to find intensity in games.
I think we are better when we are playing week after week and get some momentum.
The break and watching Leeds and Leicester rack up the points is not a great position to be in.
In the really big matches (Leeds x 2), Leicester, Norwich at home we sometimes are a little bit too frantic and that often shows in our passing being all over the place. |

Got two this morning once upper blocks were released.
Hoping it is better than my last away game, which was Elland Road - game was over after 20 mins. |

Two tickets purchased this morning so looking forward to the game.
Considered Cardiff away but with the KO time decided against it. May look at Blackburn though. |

He is too important to how we play, especially attack to sell him mid season as you say.
As Ashton showed at Bristol City, gone are the days of Ipswich selling a player to a higher league for peanuts. £25m+ minimum and we will have Cresswell back in exchange as part of the deal from West Ham as well next year if we are still in this league. |

Only team we can't beat is Leeds as assuming we end up I playoffs it will be because Southampton come Second.
Leeds have ripped us apart twice, 8 goals conceded in two games. The pace and power of the forward players and wide players are too much for us as demonstrated in the two league games.
No other team has made us look so open and any other team we will beat over two legs. |

Woeful performance same as QPR.
Yes injures are a factor but our passing and play is so slow. Our midfield today was first choice but most were 5/10 performances.
Minimum 4 signings needed - 2 x strikers, LB and RB. |

Looks like it is available worldwide including the UK for the full coverage including the match so no need to travel today?
If that is the case anyone know why it is not on the red button on Sky like all other weekday fixtures? |

I was looking at this, wondered why it was not on the red button as is not a Saturday 3pm, so should be on the red button if not on the main sky channel as every other midweek game has been this season? |
