* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Huddersfield Match-Day Thread *

We got dragged into a Warnock game.

Few seem to rate Luton, but from the other playoff contenders, they have the kinda tools we would most struggle against. Big, strong, in your face, and very good at keeping things tight and congested.
 
Bad performance, and hopefully it now stops all the postes saying we were a shoe in for second. We have to be happy with the play-offs, we just need to recover the flow we had before the international break and we will be fine.
 
Really bad result today. My head is now firmly in the playoff it is the camp. But nagging worry about our supposed wembley jinx. Think 4 wins should confirm a playoff place so pretty confident we can achieve that target at least. Duffucult next game. Carricks record of winning after a defeat will be truly tested next friday.

If we do lose this then it won't change a thing in terms of the run-in. Yes it'll put Sheffield United in a better frame of mind, but there are still plenty of points to play for.

That's supreme optimism.
It relieves the pressure on the Blades, their goal difference is better now and they have a home game on friday against Wigan, the bottom team.

Unless something strange happens Boro will be 9 points adrift of the Blades when Boro take the field against Burnley. If Luton win at Millwall then Boro have to beat Burnley to stay in third.

Personally, I think a lot changed today.

I think you're right. It has.
But all the games have to play out.
It's a huge confidence boost to Sheffield. We just have to play our games out and see.
 
huddersfield pressed us and like every team that presses us we can't handle it. in the middle of the park we have the legs of an old peoples home

It certainly wouldn’t surprise me if we don’t win. They are fighting for their lives and add warnock into the mix and that they’ve just had 2 positive results (especially millwall away jeez)
They have a sprinkling of good quality players in Hogg and ward and an ex Sevilla defender.
Depends if we really turn up. If we do, we win, if we don’t and we get 3 or 4 players with a 6/10 performance we’ll get turned over - make no mistake, they won’t lie down for us today.
