They could win that but I'd limit the participants to as few as possible if I were you. Do not invite Villa or Bristol to play as they might spoil our fun.

****ING PL NEXT YEAR! GET IN!
I personally didn't care too much about the title. I think back to winning titles previously and all I remember is being promoted. The only title that matters is the top one - and the cups of course. It didn't matter if we went up from league one to the championship as champions, all that matters is we are in the PL for the first time in our history. We have state of the art facilities, a beautiful stadium, a calm, likeable manager, a local FAN owner who is deservedly going to be compensated for near-unheard of personal investment in his club which, five years ago, would've been a pipe dream.
I am absolutely ****ing ecstatic.

"it's all our own fault" yeh, it's all our own fault we are 8 points clear of 3rd place and 12 pts ahead of Huddersfield who we worried so much about...

Whether you're delusional that that was okay and it wasn't a problem, or still a bit upset about it all we should have all left our expectations at the Amex last week. Bristol was THE ONE. Norwich and Villa were never three pointers.
All in all, the season went okay. Sour end. Looking forward to next season and hopefully not doing a Derby!

I agree, it's our own fault that we've been promoted.
The players should take full responsibility and be forced to play PL football next season as punishment.

It's very disappointing end to an amazing season. Coming away from Villa Park can't help feeling deflated. Anyone saying otherwise I'd love to have your capacity for overcoming disappointment. Or maybe you just ain't followed the Albion as long and as hard that missing out on the trophy doesn't make you feel gutted.
I'm with the players on this one. As of 1.45pm today we missed the best chance our clubs ever had beyond Smith must score to win a major honour. Shame. Real shame. So so close. But no cigar

I really do hope this is not one of our own
Agreed. Sadly in my heart I didn't expect us to win this game despite my optimistic prediction!! No good blaming the players, let's just accept we didn't make it and look forward to next season.

We had three chances because, whilst Newcastle took one point from nine against Wednesday, Ipswich and Leeds we were taking nine from nine in our corresponding games. After Wigan, it was our turn to take one from nine whilst they took maximum points.
We ended up just where we were six games out, one point behind Newcastle in second. So It Goes, C'est La Vie, Que Sera Sera and other song titles; We are promoted and we can watch those stupid play off games and enjoy the drama vicariously, and without a care in the world.
