Another massive game - away at a promotion chasing team…
Be very happy with a point

Depends whether Warnock will play his strongest team or not..surely we're not going to sit back in our own box for 90 minutes again and throw in some lads who haven't played in weeks ? Ruffles and Koroma in, Headley and Diarra out..Harratt on the bench with Simpson..

Long rest before next game. It would be daft not to play our best team.

I've accepted that it's going to be decided on the Cardiff and Reading games now, which are essentially a lottery like the playoffs. Can't see anything from this or Sheff U - any points would be a huge bonus.

Whilst we can't rely on a promoted Sheff Utd being "on the beach", there's every chance their intensity will drop as they'll have nothing to play for. |

1st win at home in six attempts (Home-W7 L7 D7) on Saturday & only one victory at home under the lights back in August v Rotherham, so maybe Neil is targeting this one for some points.......a full house will probably make them more nervous too, Boro boy Hoggy to silence the Mackems..2-0 Town.

I dunno, this is one of those theories that gets thrown around at the tail end of every season and I'm not sure has ever materialised in our favour. If anything, if they're promoted by then then the pressure is off and they'll have some fun with us. |

A point would be great.
Think we stand more chance at home vs an already confirmed 2nd place sheff u.
I'd just like us to be in a position where avoiding defeat to either Cardiff or Reading means we're safe.

Huge game..
Beat these and get a draw v Cardiff and it’s almost job done..
Dirty shithousery and a scabby 1-0..
Koroma to score..
Warnock red card for touch line shenanigans..
And the ginger dwarf breaks his foot by dropping his wallet on it..br]

Has that been forgotten now...and has that ball come back into Earths' orbit yet... |

only won one of their last 7 home games..including a thumping by Stoke and a 4-4 with Hull...ripe for a good plucking...

Starting to get nervously sort of excited about the midweek matchday’s already !
Are we better going on first on the Tuesday as we’re rostered to and if and that’s a very big IF we’d either be good enough or lucky enough to pick anything up at Sunderland then does that put pressure on QPR, Cardiff and Reading on the Wednesday - well of course it does...
The flip side is if we lose they might see an opportunity to up their game to the max and try to nick a result to overtake us -
Oh the drama, the drama with The Town,The Town ! 😬

We need something from this game to keep us ticking over . Dropping back into bottom three would destroy this team I think .
Vaclik
Pearson Helik lees Ruffels
Hogg Kasumu
Hungbo Rudoni Koroma
Ward
2-1 town with Rudoni and Helik bagging

I’m hoping for at least a point however unlikely. Hopefully we’ll come back from the break like we did after the International break.

I do hope we have a go at Sunderland and don’t just sit back and invite pressure. Could do with a result pre cardiff and TWELVE days no game

Momentum broken if we take anything tomorrow evening - a chance of a reset if we lose... Absouletely NO excuses of fatigue for the last three games after that 12 days rest - Jeez it’s never a dull moment as a HTAFC supporter... Imagine supporting a ‘boring’ club like Charlton Athletic ! |

Our recent results show these remaining games could go any which way. Everyone's looking at the Cardiff/Reading games being the ones however I have a sneaky feeling we'll pick up a win elsewhere - who'd have predicted the Millwall, Boro and Watford results?
Over the last 10 games we're both on 12 points but without having checked Sunderland's fixtures, I'm guessing we've had the more difficult run. Having said that, they are unbeaten in their last 5 and have 2 wins on the spin. It's genuinely too hard to call!

I can't see us getting anything but I didn't expect anything from middlesbrough or millwall so you never know.
Play our best 11 as they've nearly 2 weeks off after

Play our best 11 as they've nearly 2 weeks off after Warnock maybe thinks 3 points more likely from this one since he rested a few v Swansea, same vs Burnley though and look how that turned out. A defeat is the most likely option I guess, just feels we need to get lucky every game if we're not even going to try to compete for possession or control of the match. I guess it's worked amazingly well so far, whether it will continue is another matter. Definitely squeaky bum time. |

Or alternatively they fluke a win v Man C in the SF, they clinch promotion & rest their first team for the last 2 games of the season? I’m still taking the tablets… |
