I’d love it, enjoy any live match especially if it’s a big one. And I always enjoy watching the playoffs.
Probably not ,awful; trip ,awful stadium ,awful; surrounding area ,awful; trip home if you have lost.
In the pub,with your mates ,easy access to the bar , bog and food
Think the Stadium location is awful, so wouldn't bother for another team. In fact, sad to say it but I'm not sure I'd go there for a City Play Off Final again either!
I cannot wait for this year's play offs however. Having sealed the deal, I will be kicking back, completely relaxed and savouring every god forsaken second of the hell and agony that is the Play Offs.
I would enjoy it very much, especially if it went to penalties.
And sudden death.
And if the Goalkeepers had to step up to take a pen.
The new Wembley stadium, is utter dog shit, for a match day experience. Can't believe they spent over a billion pound to build it. Been there 3times with city and every time I hated it. Not because we lost.... I was expecting us to lose 2 of the games. It just has absolutely no character, it makes you feel disconnected from what's happening on the pitch. Nothing but a grandiose exercise for the Pepsi type sponsors and cooperates with little thought about the fans. Hate the place and wouldn't have gone back if we were in another playoff final
How can you lose if it’s not your team? I’m mean going as a neutralQuote:

It was definitely better @Leicester, right size for a play-off final with those size crowds
Interesting trend going on?
Grimsby lost 2015 final won 2016 final
Forest Green lost 2016, won 2017
Tranmere lost 2017, 2018 final on Saturday could be the 3rd club in a row to bounce
I wouldn't go - but I love watching the play-offs, especially if my club is not involved. Always plenty of drama, and who can forget that Charlton 4 - 4 Sunderland game? Bloody hell, just checked and it was 20 years ago!Quote:

Definitely, the play offs are fantastic entertainment and you end up with either side of the stadium at polar opposites in emotion.
Hate being in them but as a neutral they are great to watch.
Fulham v boro or villa would be a good final
