I feel I'm paying the price for hoping Preston would be good enough tonight to help themselves and us. We had our answer after 4 minutes of that game.


I've said for a while it will be Brentford plus one who go up. So big pressure on the Barnsley game. Hopefully we can put a chance away in the first half to steady nerves and force them to come and try to get something from the game. The Stoke game was nervy till the pen. And Luton showed Barnsley what can be achieved at ER, and I guess they'll also try to rile Berardi tomorrow.

I really thought the rollercoaster was almost over after Swansea, but now the pressure's back big-time. Hopefully the players have been coached in forgetting what other teams are doing, but judging by what Forshaw said recently the lads will be well aware and pressurised by Brentford's win tonight (coupled with the other two teams' winnable final fixtures).

Derby ought to be the least motivated, most beatable, of our three opponents, as it looks as though Charlton will still need something come next week.

Let's hope Preston, who still have play off aspirations, can do something, because I really have the jitters over Barnsley - much too similar to the 89/90 promotion when we were massive odds on to hammer them out of sight and yet managed to lose ( us unbeaten at home prior to this and them with no away victory that season). That was also our penultimate home game.Before anyone counters with 'lightning doesn't strike twice ' - remember Wigan the last 2 seasons As in 89/90 the saving grace is that even a defeat to Barnsley may not be fatal - then It was Leicester at home ( Strachan " have you ever seen a better goal, or one better timed") plus , of course Chappy at Bournemouth. This time it will be ex Frank Lampards now Wayne Rooneys Derby, who are now effectively out of the play off race and Lee Bowyers Charlton, who hopefully will be safe ( or down?) by then. So 2 teams with nothing really to play for and no crowd to spur them on Weirdly writing this re Barnsley and the fact that it will not cost us promotion makes me feel miles calmer and more confident that this time we WILL do it

There's only been 3 for a while - Fulham had only a very outside chance. I have a feeling PNE could do us a massive favour tonight. Brentford can't keep winning. I'd be ecstatic if they could pull off a draw. If that happens and we win tomorrow, we are promoted. Fuck!!!
