Play offs

[shingle]

We are in control of our own destiny, it doesn't matter what anyone else does, if we win the next three, and they're all winnable, we're in the play offs

Is it really that far fetched??

Was thinking much the same as the OP. If we were to make it into the play-offs none of the others would be really worried about us and their respective fans would be relishing playing against us. We would have nothing to lose and all to gain. Just seems to be looking good

A team came from outside the playoffs and in at the last mimnuts last year, and went up, and staying up.
Not sure I can bring myself.................

No they didn't. Palace never left the top 6 from September onwards

Play offs, ok i'll stick me neck out

QPR v WIGAN
DERBY v BRIGHTON

Play off final WIGAN v BRIGHTON a Wembley

BRIGHTON WIN

We're in the premier league

Remember chaps, you heard it here first.......I'm going for a lie down

I think we'll lose to Wigan.

I think we will lose in the Premier League play off final to a team with no fans at their end of the national stadium.

I think the difference is this year, we can actually joke about going up, because let's face it, we don't deserve it this year. Last year was different, we should've gone up, if we'd kept our concentration is matches until the end, and didn't concede last minute goals we'd have gone up automatically. We should've beaten Palace, and we didn't, and you have to give them credit for that, shows that the out of form side can sneak it.

If we win the playoffs we DESERVE to go up.

Yep, Derby have done the double over us, Wigan beat us recently I thought fairly easily (I know some thought we were robbed) and then there's QPR who will think they have the big-time players to beat anyone. It won't be quite like 2004 all over again because I think we were better than at least Hartlepool back then, but it will be similar as Swindon and Bris City had better teams than us.

Can I have some of your spare chickens when you've finished counting them?
