Stoke are awful, if we want to avoid play offs surely we need the 3 today?
I reckon most on here would take a draw. |  |

Must not lose I'd say |  | | |

Since Southampton and Leicester have already guaranteed winning all the rest of their matches, every match is a must-win for us from now on. Season over as soon as we drop a single point now. |  |

Hardly season over, it’s play offs worst case scenario now.
We’d be outsiders, but you never know! | |

They’re not awful; as recent away draws at WBA and Watford highlight. |  |

They aren't awful and have a new manager.
Setting up the narrative early so you can have a moan and a meltdown later depending on the result.
Typical Wally.

Just don't lose
Tough patch for us at the moment. Injuries. Illness. We all knew Hirst not being available may hurt us so we've just got to get through these games.
What is important if you wish for autos is that we don't find ourselves falling behind southampton.
If we can match their results until we can get on our own run again that's fine.
Just don't lose. |  |

They have a new manager and a good one. They are improving.
No, today is not a ‘must win’ and with a weakened team we’ll do well to get anything from it. If we don’t, it will be disappointing but not the end of the world. If 2022/23 proved anything, it’s just how long a season is.
We have a great set up and a good team. Regardless of today, we will come on strong again in the next few months.
Yep, I’m one who’d take a draw. |  | | |

Schumacher is a good manager and one who has a good record against us. Believe they are on a decent unbeaten run. Our first team is majorly depleted so I’d say a win is unlikely.
No game is a must win with so many games to go, but confidence wise we probably don’t want to lose. I’d definitely fancy us to win this with our strongest team, it’s important we get our Jan deals done quickly to improve our backup options. |  | | |

No, today isn't a must win. And Stoke aren't awful either. Apart from that, top posting as ever. |  |

Stoke fans seem to be happy Tchamadeu has been starting of late. A fun player to watch, and if he plays today I'm wondering if he'll impress. He must have been one that Town looked at with a view to maybe making the squad bigger. |  | | |

Getting this match out of the way whilst still having a points cushion over Soton would be a WIN, regardless of the result tbh.
We just need to get through this game somehow, then re-assess
For all blubbers, and those with a short memory yeah this is probably a must win because if we fail to win they have an emotional breakdown regardless.
Stoke are good enough to send us packing with nothing given our illness/injury so anything picked up here is ok. | | | |

I like how this was downvoted by the OP who saw something in the mirror and didn't like what was staring back. | | | |

Stoke are definitely not awful. Did you see their match against Birmingham, the team we managed to get a late draw against? They beat them 3-1, beat them comfortably, and played some very good football.
Schumacher has got them playing well, and full of confidence.
Given the situation with injuries to several of our key players, a draw would be alright today. [Post edited 1 Jan 14:11]

Always looking for the negative.
Never change Stokie.
Happy New Year! | |

Why is it a MUST win game Wallers?
What if there’s a game in the future where we win and Soton lose?
It would be handy to win, or at least not lose, but it’s not the end of the world. Let’s accept that Leicester and Soton both have better squads than us so to muscle in between them would be rather miraculous. |  |

I was simply asking if folk on here see it that way, or more of a “must not lose” which seems to be the general opinion.
I’d take a point personally. | |

Fair do’s. I probably played the man not the ball on this one.
3 points would be fantastic, 1 would be useful, 0 would be disappointing but understandable. | |

I’ll take that as a compliment! My mantra when I played, and then as I encouraged the youngsters, was get the ball but make sure you follow through hard on the player and leave something on him. | |

Nope it's just the next game.... we get the best out of the players available and hope we do enough... whatever the result we then have Sunderland to deal with...after a pressure off week in the cup |  | | |

We need points, if we finish in the Playoffs I can’t see us getting through so for me the only hope for promotion and retaining McKenna is top2. I am realistic in that other clubs with more opportunities will nab McKenna if we don’t go up this season. |  | | |

I suspect you’re right - though I don’t fear the play offs.
With regard to losing McKenna - I strongly suspect that Gamechanger and Ashton are already looking at succession plans should the worst happen. For a change I have confidence that those at the top actually know more about what to do than any of us. We’re in good hands. | |

Feel free to start at some time.
Or, if your headline question is to be believed, the season is over with us 3 points ahead of 3rd place. | |
