... starting today.

Brentford vs Bournemouth and Barnsley vs Swansea.

I think the winner of Brentford vs Bournemouth will also be the ones going to the PL, though I'd prefer Barnsley or Swansea. Just struggle to see it as Barnsley got a weaker squad and Swansea has been piss poor for several months.

In the end I think Brentford will take it, they are a very well run club and bound to take the step sooner or later. Unlike the other three, I think they would also have a decent chance of staying up.

Which is one of two reasons why I hope it’s not them who go up.

Though I’d quite like to go to their new ground - perhaps a cup game.

Please don’t let Bournemouth win.

With £60m+ from the sales of Ake, Wilson and others along with parachute payments, they’ll be in rude health if they come back. They have kept hold of a number of promising youngsters too; but the main thing is that we normally do shit against this outfit, I want them in the Championship or below.

Any other team beginning with ‘B’ suits me.

Barnsley for me all day long. We have a poor record against Bournemouth, if Brentford fail to go up Toney will be on the move and I can but dream.

I have never agreed with Welsh clubs in the English leagues but not Scottish ones (no offence OP) so no to Swansea too.

Oddly TNS who almost always win the Welsh Premier and get into the Champions League are English!

I am very upset. Go lwythllwywywyll yourself.

If it’s Brentford we can look forward to probably shipping 4 goals up there however well we are doing :lolol:

Anything other than a Brentford promotion would be a travesty after finishing 7 points clear of 4th place and TEN clear of 6th.

The whole play-off thing is terrible idea anyway. If they want 3 to go up then make it the top 3. Fair's fair.

Unfortunately I think Bournemouth still have the quality to raise their game for these playoffs. Hope I am wrong though.
