You have to say, fair play to the teams in the top two divisions with nothing left to play for. The Championship in particular has had plenty of games featuring teams with little riding on it, but those teams have certainly turned up. QPR gave a good account of themselves until we scored, and...
I'm curious. Over on Owls Talk, they reckon we wouldn't bring 2,000 for the play-off first leg on the Friday night. Initially that sounded laughable to me, but actually I do wonder if we'd take 2,000. People would be feeling a little flat, and it is quite a long trek for a night game. Plus...

This makes me chuckle. I'm not suggesting we will be anything other than second favourites, but :
"I cannot think of one reason why they would.
At home in front of a full house, with a vastly superior side who don't concede.
They...
I know we're not thinking play-offs, but if the worst happened, who would you rather face? It's a nightmare really, we never win at Hillsborough and Cardiff won with aplomb against us a few weeks back.
They play each other this weekend - only a Cardiff win takes it to the final day,
This...
Odd scenes on here for sure. Assuming we've won, we will be cheering for whoever is playing Burnley and Boro, as usual. But this time there will be a twist in the tail, because if QPR go in front at Burnley (I know, some hope), we suddenly all become Middlesbrough fans in the hope of the...
A few Burnley and Boro fans are at each other's throats: :lolol:

Like everyone else I spent the night thinking of permutations and how it might work out.
Burnley's Keane scoring in injury time from a corner was a hammer blow to us, we really could have done without him repeating the trick. It now means that even if Burnley are held at Preston, we probably...
£20 on Burnley to win at Birmingham and Middlesbrough to win at Bolton returns around £60. I think I might do that one as a comforter if Albion get a result tonight. If we don't, I think we will finish 3rd anyway, so won't be lumping on, especially as Middlesbrough are massively underpriced at...
Which is the best Captain Morgan?
Recent goalscorer and hero of the fourth best footballing outcome of 2016 (after Albion's up coming promotion and Palace's up coming relegation, and an England Euro victory)
Batting liability but tactical genius masterminding England's passage to the T20...
Pure chuckles, yesterday.
In case you didn't know, Arry is current manager of Jordan. Yesterday they got absolutely SPANKED in Australia and because they got spanked 5-1 rather than merely soundly beaten, they are now in danger of missing out in the world cup play-offs on goal difference...

"We're top of the league, we're top of the leeeeeeage, we're Brighton n Hove Albion...
...we're top of the league"
I am really REALLY missing singing this. After that horror show run of results where we even slipped out of the play-off places for an hour, I didn't think we'd get close to...
Sheffield Wednesday :lol: could be the largest gate for almost 2 years, I'd have thought.
As the largest club in the league (and indeed Europe), they will bring around 17,000 of their own muglets, mostly filling the home ends. It would be more than that, but it's a Tuesday.
We will then...
I remember an awful lot of concern being shown on here when he left for the manager's job at Luton on January 6th.
Since then, Luton have gone:
P6 W2 D2 L2 PTS8 GD-2
And we have gone:
P6 W4 D1 L1 PTS13 GD+4
Early days but it doesn't seem like we're missing him.
I do like Nathan...
