Am I the only one who thinks the original question is stupid
A win is the obvious answer
If we can not win then a draw
If we lose then by as small a margin as possible.
You're missing so many nuances.
Best result for friday

It wouldn't.
No.
Some idiots said the same before the boro match, that it was good we needed to win, not draw.
Middlesbrough didn't need to win, they needed to draw. How did that work out?
Huge difference , We had to beat Boro away......We have Sheffield over two legs and haven`t won till end of Home leg.
Yep. They would do.

Silly old bat
We didn't. We lost the first leg 2-1.
I meant last week, where, had we won we would have only needed a draw ar Boro

0-1, bring them home and balls out 3-0 at home. 0-0 or 1-0 to us after away leg and we all think defensive.

No, I'm with you on this too.
Clearly, our next match will be a game of FOUR halves and so as long as we score more than Sheffield Wednesday
do by the end of the 4 halves, the position at the halfway point [as per the OP's question] is frankly, irrelevant ....- Thread starter

Does anyone else think that losing at Wednesday, say 3-0 would be the best result? That way we would start the game at the Amex knowing exactly what we would need to do, I.E. score 4 goals. The players would be up for it and there would be no complacency, just tons of goals.
What I was trying to say, is, as was proved against Derby, a win is always better than a draw.

I would be over the moon to quote a football cliche to come away with a 2-0 win. or was it against Millwall (1991) when we scored 4 in the first leg, granted that was at The Goldstone, so made the 2nd leg a formality.
And won 2-1 at Cold Blow Lane, BG

Somebody please tell me this one isn't being serious.
Of course I'm not being serious!

Strange thread.
Strange thread.
It's exactly the ****ing same! If we beat them away (you asked what the best result would be, short of thrashing them, so the best result is to beat them) they will then have to beat Brighton away, while Brighton will have to draw.
So we'd then be in the same position boro were in, and Sheffield would be in the same position Brighton were in.

I`m just worried that a 2 or even 1 nil win would lead to us believing and playing as if job done. Would playing for a draw suit our game??
