Yep, I was a (tiny) bit worried when we lost at home to Brighton as it gave Burnley a really good chance to close the gap with this home game. However, they didn't so I'd be very surprised (and a bit disappointed) if we don't take the title now.
Really starting to believe it now... almost done a dusted. Tbh I would be very ****ed off if we don´t lift it.
We'll be looking to get fourth, have the second leg of the play off at our place, so we'll not make it easy for Burnley.
I think you'll get fourth. Blackpool can't win for love nor money, Brum even lost to Forest and Blackburn will have nothing to play for by final day. QPR play three teams desperate for points; Watford (who have to win to keep their slim play-off chances alive), Barnsley and Millwall!
Swans fan in peace Congratulations on winning the title - I'm already looking forward to watching you in the Prem next season, you always play with style. BUT I was looking at the record of previous Champions to further enjoy Cardiff's season and the reading isn't very positive. The exploits of teams coming up as champions. 13 - Cardiff 14 relegated 12 - Reading 13 relegated 11 - QPR 12 relegated 10 - Newcastle 09 - Wolves - 12 relegated 08 - WBA - 09 relegated 07 - Sunderland 06 - Reading - 08 relegated 05 - Sunderland - 06 relegated With luck you'll be more Sunderland / Newcastle than QPR / Wolves.
Lol, Cardiff aren't relegated yet my friend. Also QPR were relegated in 13. The thing that really stands out to me is that nearly all those teams going back ten years have been involved in future promotions or Prem seasons after. This is more than we've had over the last ten years. We may come down the first time, but our young squad will learn a lot from it and will bounce back. I think we will survive though - unless there is all almighty chasm between the Prem and the Championship, because we are far to good for the latter. Looking forward to playing you next year!
I can see you doing a Southampton - which would be great in your first season TBH. You all should get a decent reception in Swansea, unlike our six fingered friends down the road, we appreciate well behaved mingling. Anyway, enjoy the summer and roll on August.
