If you read the original post you quoted, you'd see I didn't actually express a preferred winner either way, but pointed out reasons in favour of both outcomes from my POV.
If you see either reason as 'lame', that is entirely your prerogative.
On one hand I'd like Fulham to win as they play better football and don't have John Terry, but on the other hand I look at the likes of Cairney and Johansen in their team and think I'd like them in our team should they become available if Fulham don't go up.
