Controversial opinion maybe... but I think we are better off having the first leg at home. We have shown on a couple of occasions recently that we can win 3 or 4 nil at home. I worry about a performance like today, Peterboro or Rotherham. I feel more confident about us holding a lead than pulling one back... Just me?

I think this result has put 3rd beyond us
We've only won twice I believe from a losing position. Bolton and Orient.
Id be seriously worried if we tried to go for a 0-0 in the second leg of a Play-Off match away from home... I mean we tried to protect the 2-goal lead we had against Doncaster and it didn't work.
The Play-Offs arent the League, teams know that there are no second chances to bounce back against a different team and claw back the points difference - Its effectively do or die!!
so if we win 5-0 next week and Wycombe draw 0-0. We would finish with the same number of goals and points BUT we would finish 4th and get the 2nd leg at home.
like I said. Crucial.
If we win, and there is a winner in the above match, then we will end up 4th & play the loser of that match and will be away 1st leg.
