Don't get me wrong I will be ecstatic if we make the play offs, but this year its loaded in favour of the team finishing 3rd and then the team finishing 4th. As I understand it the knockout stage is 5th v 8th and 6th v 7th. The winners play semi finals against the teams 3rd and 4th. With the team finishing 3rd playing the lowest ranked team left irrespective of which knockout match they cane from, so they get the easier route to the final. |  | | |

As it should be. | |

We’re ahead of track IMO. Points alone only tell the story if you assume we are going to suffer the same bad luck we have the last few games all season.
For balance, we did get away with a few earlier in the season, but not to the extent of West Ham, Portsmouth or Birmingham.
Only QPR and Southampton have beaten us comfortably this season and I’d fancy us to beat QPR at home.
One home loss by mid November and that featured an offside goal, Cabango hitting the bar, Ronald missing a virtual open goal, an arguable first half red card and West Ham going down with ‘head injuries’ whenever we had momentum. |  | | |

Are the first play offs - 5v8 and 6v7 - two leg affairs? |  |

No, They are one-legged games that will take place at the home of the side who finished higher. | | | |

No.
The new format will start with two eliminator ties: fifth vs eighth and sixth vs seventh. These eliminators are one-legged games that will take place at the home of the side who finished higher. | | | |

It always seemed a lottery to me, but now it's really structured that the higher you finish the more favourable it is. | | | |
