The writing's on the wall, isnt it?

well over the two league games this season - Sunderland would have knocked us out.

we win 1-0 at home - they win 2-0 at lightbulb park.
That's the reality of a derby game and how much more home advantage counts.

We were the dog$hit version when we beat them at the Riverside, and an on fire team who didn't turn up at their place.
 
I’ve been saying to my Mackems mate for sometime now that we’ll both meet in the play off final. He said he’ll fly in from the States if it happens and can get a ticket.
 
Imagine a Boro v Mackem final. London would be interesting. I think someone said that Newcastle are at Chelsea the same weekend too.

Yep.

The trains and services on the way to London would be "interesting" too.

Have to admit this is a possibility.

IF we get past the Sky Blues then I'd rather face Luton on the big Wembley pitch, but if not then provided the Hatters take out a few of the Sunderland lads to join their mate Stewart then I won't be too disgruntled.
 
I would much rather play Sunderland over 2 legs than a one off game at Wembley.
Not because I‘m scared of them, but because we’d rack up a cricket score over 2 legs. We’ve been playing within ourselves for weeks. Luton know it. Coventry know it. We‘ve nothing to fear, but everyone else will be fearing us.

they get found out with VAR mate , foul constantly from free kicks etc, only reason they beat us there was fouls from corners

These are my thoughts too, Sunderland are like a knock off version of us, I reckon on that massive pitch there would be space all over, it’d be end to end and I’d probably have a heart attack.

Luton from what I’ve seen would struggle to deal with us on a pitch like that.
 
Wtf are people nervous about , a side who scored abt 20 goals less a lot less points , that aint a fluke people /
We have injuries granted , but controlled Cov after 30 mins really , Luton will bully sunderland ....but VAR will stop the blocking/fouling from corners at wembley
 
It will be tight but Luton will win over the two legs I think, they've done well to get there and clearly have a real chance but Luton finished 3rd for a reason.
