Yes. If we lose 4-3 at Sheffield, and lose 0-1 at home, we go through, winning 6-5 on aggregate.

I honestly think we will beat Massive convincingly.

If we can subdue Bannan that effectively puts the brakes on Forestriere and Hooper so that must be the plan.
Just looked on Owlstalk, jeez they like a moan up on there...Feel that they have been singled out for bad decisions by refs this year, also stating Stephens tackle was disgusting and should never be overturned, because Bannans one wasn't.
Wonder if they will be asking for the best ref and putting pressure on him like Boro did....

What are you on?: We would lose 5-3 on aggregate
I think what he meant was if we lost 2-1 up and won 1-0 at home would we go through on the away goal. I dont think it applies.
Can we get some of those number boards to hold up to score Forestieri's dives?

Hopefully the ref appointed will be used to watching Tom Daley so will watch out for Forestiere as he has developed a Zaha type name.

Here are the rules from the Football League: http://www.football-league.co.uk/global/playoffrules.aspx
All goals are equal whichever ground they are scored in whoever scores them. Losing 1-0 in the first leg and winning the second 2-1 means penalties after extra time.
I just hope we do better than the last two playoff experiences. I wouldn't like to repeat either of them or any of the other events associated with them (clackers, poogate, it all going very pear-shaped against Derby).

No worries Nscer's. Players were so gutted after Boro & will now be fired up more than ever so the next team up is getting smashed! Oh good - it's Sheffield Wed 
who by the way have only won one of their last 6 games.

He is being clever with the meaning of 'away goals count DOUBLE' ie as 2 goals.
Oh God.
We have the awful prospect of along with the Pawson, and Dean refereeing howlers, we'll get a third with another ref being conned by a Forestieri drive

But AWAY goals count DOUBLE, so we'd have 6!
Oo you little sweet talker you
I've never seen that before, that's incredible.

It will be 4-4-2 or 4-5-1. That's all we ever play. Probably the former given the lack of Stephens

Always worth another look.
I blame Stephens!
Did he need oxygen , that looks like a nasty head injury
and what was the outcome? Would it be too much to expect him to have got a card of some sort for that?Did he need oxygen , that looks like a nasty head injury
It's a real irony is that it's a clear foul from Forestieri in the first place isn't it!
Winning officiating strikes again!
