    Only team I wouldn't want to face is Exeter and thankfully we won't.

    Probably wouldn't want to face Ipswich though I don't fear them and happy to face any of the rest - in fact, I think we should make it interesting and play a combined Wednesday/Bolton/Derby/Plymouth select 11 just to give the fans of those teams a sporting chance ;)

    Seriously, we're a match for anyone in this division.

    Not fussed tbh , we would have to play two of the three anyway and picking one is just asking for egg on your face anyway.

    True. I was convinced we would beat Swansea if we played them, but they did a job on us - Cooper outthought Big Val

    My sentiments exactly, bring on whoever. Wednesday in the final will do.

    Im interested to know what the fans of Derby & Bolton & Peterbrough think, about possibly playing us. ;)

    Definitely Derby. We were too fit & too relentless in the league game for them & I’d expect the same in the play offs.

    They’ve got a great set piece taker in Hourihane but with 3 centre backs good in the air I’d be confident about our chances.

    We've lost twice at Derby this season, and we were a disgrace there in the Fa cup defeat, and in the first half of the league game.
    I still think out of the 3, Peterbrough could/should be the most winnable one.

    As for a winner.. flick a coin

    Technically, we could win promotion through the play-offs without winning any of the games. We could draw all 3 and win the penalty shoot-outs.

    Obviously, we can't afford to lose for that to happen ;)

    I'm not worried about Bolton; we only lost due to the referee's intervention.

    I don't want Wednesday in the final. They owe us one. I'm not fussed about Bolton in the Semi. Not confident at all like I was in 2016.

    I had no doubt we'd win going into the L1 playoffs last time, I don't have that vibe - we are capable of beating and losing to all of them, but I'd go Derby then the Fowls in the final - what a way to go up beating the deedahs.

    Only team I wouldn't want to play are Ipswich and obviously we won't. We are as equally inconsistent as the other 4 teams that can still make the play offs so on the day, anything could happen.

    Think it will be Bolton in one semi and fowls v Derby in the other.

    I don't get this fear of Bolton that some folk have posted about.In the last 2 months they have drawn with Morecambe Cambridge and Burton and just lost against Accrington Stanley.

    I'd like to face Forest Green Rovers, but I don't think it will happen.

    I'd prefer Derby (and Joan) County. They've got an ageing squad and will be playing hard well into the final day.
