Playoffs

cant believe that after last years disappointment we would have finished 42 points ahead of Watford.
actually hope derby win the playoffs, but I think that Brighton have a real chance, they must be glad they played us right after we got promotion often the team that scrapes in last doors does well.
feel sad for Dickov and Donny demoted in the final minutes hope the bounce back.

 

Forest have yet again blown their play-off chances but seen a team squeeze in by winning at their place in the last minute. I wouldn't mind seeing Brighton up, but I think I'm actually going to support Derby, just to have another East Midlands team (it also annoys Forest). What about the rest of you?

 

I honestly didn't want Nuge to score the pen.

We finish on a round 100 points, Donny and Dickov stay up, and bust Birmingham go down.

 

Not fussed who wins the playoffs. Wigan with their experienced squad are my pick to win however.

 

Hope the sheep go up with us

 

The Dramas for me ... they have big match winners in that squad if they can be arsed ... it's a big 'if' mind ...

 

Wouldn't worry too much, this time next year Birmingham will be down + in administration.

 

IT was a no contact dive, Leicester cheated Donny out of the league.
Thats pathetic, especially as Leicester had nothing to play for but theyve dived this season more than any other team and its not exactly like they needed to either.

 

Okay mate

The reaction of the players said it all. The defender who "made no contact" didn't even complain that a penalty was given, but you are?

 

You're right. We only got promoted because we cheated. QPR are a much better team.

In other news, Elvis and Lord Lucan have returned from there holiday on Mars in their invisible spaceship.

 

I have a lot of respect for Wigan, but I hope Brighton make it as they haven't been in the top flight for years. Sadly, I feel QPR v Derby would be a likely, if disappointing, final.

 

Cheers for the support boys & girls...After all my efforts to keep you entertained all season with some fantastic posts you've turned against us..I am dissapointed !

Dont worry about flyer, he's a bit out there.

i honestly think the Play offs are very open with no clear favourites & wouldnt want to meet Brighton in the final.

Oh well...Here goes...hopefully see you next season !

 

Yeah the play offs are a complete lottery good fun though and a great way to be promoted via wembley but nerve wracking and heartbreaking for 3 of the 4 teams
Will enjoy watching them

 

I've seen some knob jockey posts on here in my time ... Donny's relegation came down to us cheating them? ... have a word with yourself ... their fate was in their own hands ... win the game and they stay up ... but they lost, end of ... and if it hadn't been for Kasper handing them (literally) 3 points at their place they would have been virtually gone anyway ... the table does not lie ... it is based on a season's results ... congratulations on proving that you were the fourth best team in this league by the way.

Your post is heavily influenced by sour grapes - our tactics this season are all about pace - if you have it you will draw fouls from slower players - some, particularly bell-ends, will lose their heads against such players and end up getting sent off ... it's not because they have been cheated, rather that they have themselves 'cheated' because that, in essence, is what a foul is ... now go and suck on some more Tangfastics ...

 

It may well have been a dive and I don't condone that, but it makes up for the ref missing another goal we scored which made him look foolish on the tv replay at the stadium.

 

I started this thread last night on FoxesTalk.


Titled, "Who do you want to win the Play-Offs?"



Quite an overwhelming response

Wigan for me, if anyone gives a **** ?

 

Hope Derby join you!!!! And you avoid the jinx that has befallen Championship winning teams in the Premiership season recently, namely Cardiff and Reading straight back down. Think you guys have been preparing for this over the last three seasons so the signs are good.

 

It´s going to be a very, very bumpy ride with that there is no doubt. We do seem to have a cunning plan though ?
