The play-offs are the greatest thing in club football (apart from the sheer innocence and beauty of the FA Cup). But, only if your club is not involved. I barely slept the season Cardiff played Stoke. I could barely speak for a week after the shock of losing that one. Same for the play-off against Bristol City - spent the entire second leg watching the clock and working out the percentage of the game remaining. Then, QPR, I hardly slept for two or three nights leading up to that game.
Bristol was a derby x100, QPR was a nightmare until the final whistle, Stoke I knew what was going to happen after Earnie missed the 1 on 1 up there, Blackpool...well.
Only playoff game I've been relaxed at was Northampton away...Sir Geoffs moment of madness and I spent the rest off the game laughing at the off field shenanigans.
So glad to give them a miss this time around
I vaguely remember Northampton, wasn't it over by the time it got to Cardiff (Eckhardt red card at Sixfields?)?
Where are the Fulham lads
I'll fill in until Eric gets his machine working
They've met 68 times over the years, incredibly even, 23 wins each, 22 draws.
This century they've met 30 times, Villa have won 11, Fulham 8 & 11 draws
They've never met on a neutral ground before.
If Earnie hadn't missed that one on one against Brizzle in the first leg, my nerves, and probably yours, would have been a lot better in the second leg. Like you, kept counting the minutes away. 90 minutes - the concept of eternity.
