I can only listen to the radio tonight but would love to hear "Alan Brownes Super White Army!" non stop and for ten minutes after the final whistle, thanks.
I don't think I have ever been less excited for a game. Seriously considering just chucking the towel in and not going

Hopefully we get battered tonight and it gets nice and hostile for the scouse prick in the dugout

I'm also missing tonight. I have a bowls match but could have got a stand in but I also don't want to watch another teams celebrations.
Had it been Ipswich (who I have no affinity with) I might have felt differently. What a great season they are having after promotion from what I still call the 3rd division.
A Prem team with many Prem players plus parachute payments should be walking this division every time. They get no kudos from me. (I have nothing per se against them)

I never want my team to get battered but would like Lowe and the Fat Controller to get some serious stick.

Monday night football just doesn't seem right and as we've nothing to play for I'm not feeling any enthusiasm. The Sky footage will be all about Leicester, so I really hope we spoil the party but they have a full squad to chose from so I can't see that happening.
I just hope we go for it tonight, spoil the party, if we get hammered, so what? Seasons over nothing to play for just go for it lads, at least look like we can play football.

Newly promoted, opportunity to win the league and keep 100 points alive, sell-out away crowd, against a team who have been on the beach for a month.
Hard to see them scoring fewer than 3

Guessing they did the player awards at the training ground since the game will finish quite late tonight.

Plus only those without a life would bother to stay behind to watch.
I have been thinking that I should nip up to town for a 90-minutes session of pain, suffering and humiliation with just the possibility of a moment or two of exaltation with a blonde dominatrix in a Soho torture dungeon - just to get myself acclimatised for tonight. In fact I have suffered the worst possible scenario for a near end-of-season match already - I was there when we lost 3-0 at our place before a Kop End packed with supporters of a team who play in tangerine shirts in a match that effectively sent them to the top tier and us to our first ever experience of the old Division 3. But whatever happens tonight we will still be a Championship club next season and every season is a fresh start.
Like everyone I am dismayed at the way this season has petered out (no pun intended) but realistically given that we lost our entire first choice midfield just as we started the run-in then it is no surprise - had that not happened then you never know. But there is still a reason to treat tonight's match as having some meaning - with at least two of that missing midfield back we can perhaps show what might have been and do so in front of an audience that will be worldwide. It might even make someone somewhere think the club is worth buying and pumping the millions into it that are probably needed to make us realistic promotion contenders.

Lap of thanks translates into crock of shit!!
I would have preferred them to have shown their appreciation in some of the recent games!! Q.P.R. Norwich,Watford,Birmingham! You know, when it fekin matters!!!!!!!
The whole, Risdale,Lowe ethos of the club is about the bullshit and not the substance !!!!!!!!!!
