And the main topic of conversation is as to whether they should invade the pitch this Saturday to celebrate their promotion. Do hope their players are just as complacent...

Been Adams Park twice and one thing that came across was how souless the place.
We have nothing to lose Saturday unlike them, to be honest pressure is on them.
Hope Graham Coughlan can work some magic in the dressing room.

Personally I don't see the appeal of a pitch invasion at all, and should we do it I won't be invading the Greenhous playing surface.

I thought that Adams Park had already been invaded - by a herd of stampeding cattle and farmers with their agricultural equipment...looks like a ploughed field!

Memories of MK Dongs booking trains to Wembley after drawing at the old Meadow, and even announcing times in the programme. It ain't over till it's over C'mon Salop

I've still got a flyer that was left on my windscreen in Bury- advertising coaches to Wembley for their playoff final

Just let them keep thinking it's all academic.
If I was a Southend player reading all that then it would give me all the motivation needed to put a major spanner in their arrogance. Wycombe fans are basically saying Southend are sh@t and are so bad that they are planning to celebrate promotion before the game even starts. Let's hope that motivates Southend to put up more of a fight than Crewe and Bury's pathetic attempts in the last two games.

Its great that they are so sure that they are going automaticaly. They probably will but there is many a slip in these situations.
Interresting that if by some small chance they do fail they will be so deflated that it would do considerable damage to their playoff chances.

Thought it was a good piece on bbc i player following Wycombe at Bury with clips of the Town game. Thought they did celebrate a bit much for my liking at the end though and that sort of thing has a habit of biting you in the backside...heres hoping!

They are entitled to celebrate however they want: their result at Bury is the result of the season.
Whatever happens Saturday Turner has made a brilliant contribution this season.
We either get automatic promotion deservedly, or we enter the play offs with the highest points total in 17 years, with at least 4 clean sheets and 4 wins in 5.
Whatever we think of the play offs you can be sure no-one wants to play us.

[/img][/quote] If you look at Southends last few games, none of the player released have started and most of them arent even on the bench. The most interesting part of the article is that a number of other first teamers are due for talks so a good performance on saturday might help them.

Amazing how playing for a new contract can inspire players.

I'd say that was quite pathetic considering what was at stake. If support had anything to do with promotion then we'd deserve to go up on that alone never mind all the wigglesworth controvesy, chris neal bungle etc etc

You're always on dubious ground if you start criticising other teams support. Since they've been in the league, Wycombe have spent most of their time in league one and reached semi finals in the FA and League Cup, so presumably don't see this as a big deal. Not an excuse, but they're in a different position to us.

How is the pressure on them but not on you!!!!!!!!!! Unbelievable the way you change your tunes so much, are you the same lot of fans who arrogantly came onto our forum making noises about how you would be promoted by christmas and we should all look out? ? Look at you now, and you talk about arrogance of the Wycombe fans, when all season you have been rubbishing everyone else, well I hope Wycombe win tomorrow so your result makes no difference then I hope you get right royally stuffed in the pay offs and stay in this league for yet another year, scared of you? You must be mad everyone hates you and relishes the chance to take you down and wipe that smug smile of your smug faces.

There are some clear difference between Hereford and Shrewsbury despite the results the rest of this season.....
One club has a manager beloved by all fans and a team that needs nothing than the smallest bit of tinkering to mean that there is a championship challenge in the offing in season 2011/12
One club has a manager whos bumbleing his way along and a team that needs a a total overhaul just to avoid another season avoiding relegation and getting beaten most weeks in season 2011/2012
Thats why as a town fan even if it all goes wrong, I can be assured our future is the one that shins brightest.....

Not an excuse, but they're in a different position to us. They've had their moments in recent years but before we started going downhill 15/20 years ago we managed to sustain championship league status for ten years with several good cup runs of our own over that time. Historically i'd say we're in a different position to them but that is based on 25 years ago as opposed to five years ago.

Not an excuse, but they're in a different position to us. Agree about the level of support somehow deserving (or not) promotion is a non-starter. But I don't get the suggestion that Wycombe might somehow be above making a fuss about League 2 promotion. They've come out of non-league in the last 20 years and, from that base, been very successful but I wouldn't consider them to be in a different position to us. They've been more successful recently but they're just not a particularly well supported club. 700 was a low number for such an important game and I suspect that reflected the lack of confidence of some of their fans going into that game. I'd expect a biggish crowd there tomorrow.

That is a very funny post , so you have nothing to lose then? So if you don't get promoted through the pay offs that's OK is it?? God haow you all change your tune from a few weeks ago, your mirrors must all be cracked as your not looking at the real reflection coming back at you :-)

Hereford, and I can certainly understand why he's on here crowing. Fourth bottom is an excellent finish for a club of their stature, and they deserve much praise for the plucky and ballsy nature of their 6-0 aggregate defeat against a bigger club 55 miles away who they (naturally) regard as a derby. I wish we had even 10% of the bragging rights they have right now.
