    Huddersfield my tip "BUT"
    Wouldn;t be surprised if Reading went up most people tipping them to fall away no signs of it yet <ok>

    I think Leeds will go up

    Sorry to be a bit radical.

    I don't think we are the best side, but with a full squad out I think we are difficult to beat and will be there or thereabouts

    Oh and, just on a point of order, one team that won't feature in either list is Millwall as they are too crap to be in the Championship in the first place

    I think Huddersfield are the best team in the play offs. Sheffield W / Reading don't bother me to much.

    One has to admire Chippy and his unbounded confidence in his team. (I think that's Leeds, isn't it?)

    Newcastle, Brighton , Udders, hate to admit it, but we're not strong enough, although I think we'll be in the playoffs

    At this point in time, I see Udders getting in the top 2.

    I just pray we don't finish 6th because I can't see us winning that game over 2 legs. A one-off game at wembley however? Any one from the top 6 could win that

    I'd rather Udders get auto than Brighton if it was down to those two teams in the play offs with ourselves and whoever else

    Brighton and Newcastle for top two, both promoted even if one drops out of top 2.

    3rd team to be promoted, I'm saying it's a toss up between Wednesday and Udders. Reading have been through a blip but seem to be hanging in there but can't see it.

    Teams to watch out for, Norwich, Fulham and Derby once they've finished their blip, with Barnsley an outside threat.

    Fulham have 2 games in hand, Derby have 1.

    Unless our football improves big time, I sense we're going to drop out of top 6 in about 6 or 7 games. Things are getting tighter and tighter, Wednesday will be coming out with all guns blazing having lost to Brentford and Norwich and Fulham will know what they have to do to replace one of teams in the 4; it's a blood battle from here on in, in every sense of the words.......:emoticon-0148-yes:

    He gets everything wrong so another positive when he doesnt predict us going up. Surprised he missed out on Derby though

    On the basis I am always wrong I can see Norwich AND Fulham making the top 6 at someones expense (Reading and?????).
    The Old Farm Derby is massive for us...... come on Ipswich.

    Doing a stato spot it looks very interesting. season before last points totals for 3 going up were 90, 89 & 86. Last season 93, 89 & 83 but the goal difference tells the real story. 53, 41, 40, then last season 37, 32, 34. Both those season we were in negative numbers but this season Brighton & Newcastle are a mile ahead already with 37 & 28. We are the best of the rest in the top 6 on 11 but Fulham have 15. So on paper were 3rd best but we need more & just Wood scoring regular may not be enough
