Looking at matches left for the play off contenders I think we'll end up with Rotherham (with Preston who have the "easiest" of the games left to play ending in 3rd place)
Thoughts?

I dont think any games will be easy , but the other 3 sides seem to be getting better resulys than us at the moment , i will back whoever we are playing in the semis to win the play offs , if we get through i will do my dough but at least we will be at WEMBERLY , WEMBERLY , oh we are the Orient and were going to WEMBERLY , WEMBERLY , WEMBERLY .

No game is easy I don't know why you all think that?
It's all about who is the more hungry on match day
We like all the others in the play offs have a 1 in 4 chance
It's up to the team to perform over those 2 legs
I don't care who we get we have 180 minutes to do the job

I think Preston and Peterborough have better players.
Rotherham and the O's have more spirit.
For me Preston will get promoted.

It seems that we will finish 4th or 5th therefore play off dates Sat 10th and Thursday 15th May. Is there a draw as to which leg is home or away?

Thanks. So really it would be an advantage to finish 4th. If 5th not many will fancy a Thursday night trip up North

The Play-Offs of Sky Bet League 1:
Saturday 10th May, 12:15pm - match A 1st leg (6th v 3rd)
Saturday 10th May, 5:15pm - match B 1st leg (5th v 4th)
Tuesday 13th May, 7:45pm - match A 2nd leg (3rd v 6th)
Thursday 15th May, 7:45pm - match B 2nd leg (4th v 5th)
The Final will take place at Wembley Stadium on Sunday 25th May.
Dates as above. All games will be televised.
I don't want us to finish 3rd we gave a thin squad and players such as lisbie will have a better chance of playing in both legs there is 48 hours difference with the second legs.
Keep the faith 2nd half Saturday we were terrific. A few decisions go against us now as per Saturday makes us all even more determined.
Play lundstram the next 2 games get him 100 per cent game fit and rest vincelot then unleash them as a pair in the play off semis. I genuinely can't wait whatever happens we know they will give their all and won't disgrace themselves and on our day we can beat anyone.

Who cares who Orient get. It is two matches and they have to play at their best to get through against anyone.
These are two of the most important games in recent history for Orient, I hope all the players are up for it.

I know my nerves are shot just thinking about it. Second leg will probably be away but that is no disadvantage to us this year

After watching Crawley on Friday I gave Orient no hope but parts of the second half against Wolves were getting back to the earlier season quick pass and move.
Just please Slade don't tell the players to play hoofball towards the striker - IT DOESNT FECKING WORK!

The second leg of the 4th v 5th is on my birthday, so I hope I have the best pressy Ive ever had with an aggregate win for the O's

I don't think we have the luxury or option of Lundstram in the play offs at the moment I believe his loan period is for 28 days only
Here's hoping Everton extend the loan I must say I've been impressed by him in the 2 full games I've seen him play
Baudry is a worry for me at the moment he has been not at his best for a good 4-5 games I'm hoping his football head will return in time for the play offs
