Can you imagine if we hadn't dropped 'silly' points this season?
Those include:
Peterborough away, Doncaster away, Brighton away, Coventry home, watford home (arguably) and if we didnt have that goal disallowed against Millwall.
Thats a total of 13 points, which would have left us on 84 points, just 1 point below Southampton, and pushing for that auto place.
It's just stupid things like last minute goals or sitting back inviting pressure.
Footnote: I know, it's football and thats how the game works and that it's happened to all teams. So no need to point it out.
Happy with how the season's gone however

I'd just love to get revenge on Blackpool in the play-off final
I've hardly ever felt so low after a match than that one in 2010 (Romania 1993, Stoke 2002 and Russia 2003 being the other examples), and to beat them this year would be absolutely great

That would be the ultimate revenge

Agree with this.
We ain't the only team to concede late goals etc. the league table after 46 games will always give a fair reflection.

I absolutely despise Blackpool after that disappointing day in 2010! It would be great if we had them in the final (provided we get there) and smashed them to pieces!! Only 2 teams in hate in the 92 team pyramid - Blackpool and Swansea!
