Hopefully Joey can get his boys up for that win against the team Fleetwood that have always been in their shadow.The only way we’ll finish above Blackpool is with them losing both games and us winning. Even with one goal margins in all three games, that would be sufficient for us to finish above them, as our goals scored tally is much higher than theirs. So a Doncaster win would be a bonus, but it’s a real long shot to hope Bristol Rovers win at Blackpool, if Blackpool need a result. I’d almost rather Charlton fail to beat Lincoln on Tuesday than Doncaster win - MApp could well rest players ahead of the playoffs and their heads could be down after that travesty at Peterborough. A big win for Charlton and they could get back into the equation for the last game of the season, and overtake us even if we win and Pompey slip up.
I’m not sure why folks go on about Burton’s form. For the last 6 games it is

for us.
I think that most supporters probably thought that the defeat against Wimbledon was it.So here we are. Down to perhaps the last game of the season.
I really didn’t see us getting this close if I‘m honest. Felt we muffed it up against the wombles, and a few before that but there have been stumbles from all the teams around us that has, incredibly left us with a shot at the playoffs.
All that is left to do is win this last game - No easy feat against a resurgent Burton side who are showing a decent run of form.
It’s not that we are incapable of seeing them off - quite the opposite, we are a very good side who are more than talented enough to trouble anyone.
No, we suffer with a collective stutter sometimes. Forget how superior we are to most of the teams in this division.
It has cost us an automatic place that I believe was very attainable this season.
Should we triumph on Sunday it may still not be enough to see us into a playoff place but you would still have to pay huge tribute to the players and staff for refusing to throw in the towel nearly as quickly as I did.
This game may, or may not be the last 90 minutes of the season.... but if it is to be our final, then please please please, let’s go out with all guns blazing... an Agyeitaylorwinnall fire fest.
If all of our players Leave every last bead of sweat on that pitch and know that there was no more to give, then that is good enough for me.
Win, and something incredible - magical could yet happen.

If they lose and we draw, that’s enough. I get your point though.We have to win. If we fail to win and Pompey do too everyone will melt down.
They’re going to have to score a hell of a lot of goals if we win our last and they win there last 2 games that’s allowing for Pompey to get no more than a draw.But then we might get pipped by Charlton if they win their last two.
