So 10 games to go Starting from today

PH has said this isn't must win, it is. Pure and Simple

To keep any aspirations of the Play offs alive, we have to win today

Yep, would concur with that. The defeat on Tuesday changed the dynamics - failure to get 3 points today leaves us out of touch with it all to do. Chesterfield away up next doesn’t help matters, either.

I don’t think defeat today would be terminal for Hurst, but it would be for our playoff ambitions.

Still 30 points left to play for, a defeat today, while decreasing the chances of a playoff place, certainly doesn’t rule it out. Long way to go yet.

It’ll be nice if we play like it’s a must win for the first time in a big game this season. If we do, I’m certain we’ve got the ability to do so.

Need to win, pure and simple. Doesn’t matter how. A win keeps us in play off contention and something to play for.

That said I don’t think PH is going anywhere anytime soon, and for me that’s fine- still feel he’s the right man for the club long term.

Lose today and I think that’s the end of it. Haven’t seen the mentality in the squad to suggest they want it enough to go on a mega run until the end of the season, especially with Chesterfield next up. MUST win.

Strange statement as this squad have had 2 excellent runs of form, with a terrible run in the middle. 6 wins 2 draws and 2 defeats would get us there.

Doesn’t seem a very popular opinion but I completely agree. I am certain we will win today though and be back in the playoffs come 5PM.

And there in is part of our Problem, PH lack of killer instinct or motivation costs us.

Struggling to recall, unless mathematically obvious, when a manager has said a game is a must win. Leaves them nowhere to go if a side pinch a last minute equaliser.
