[Football] Who will join us in the PL ? Playoff thread

[Blue Valkyrie]

Leeds v FL Derby
West Brom v Villa

Possibly best for us if FL Derby win them.

 

[Icy Gull]

Imagine finishing one place short on the final game

And you just know how those Derby fans are feeling now.

Good, I have a very strong dislike of Boro

 

[macbeth]

Don't like Derby, but i dislike Boro even more, so this works out well. May seem a tad hypocritical me saying this too, but I think it's important that Pulis-ball is kept as far away from the PL as possible

Derby are too entitled and I agree with Danny Rose about white boy Lampard getting his break at Derby while Sol Campbell had to make do with Macclesfield. Not great.

Nothing to do with Lampard being white, Sol Campbell is a complete bellend. I remember one interview with him (maybe documentary) where he explained why he wouldn't make an effort for George Graham almost from the moment he became manager. I wouldn't want him anywhere near my club. Hughton, on the other hand, is the model of class and I'm delighted he's managed us. It's nothing to do with race.

Anyone but Leeds.

 

[blue'n'white]

I'd echo the sentiments above of "anyone but Leeds"
In order of preference I suppose Derby, West Brom, Villa, Leeds but it's a close run thing between Derby and the Baggies. Definitely don't want dirty Leeds and Villa still feel that they're only playing in the Championship because of a mistake in spelling their name wrong on the application form.

Leeds and Derby will ultimately try to out bottle each other, the playoff winner won’t come from these 2.

That leaves Villa v West Brom

Just as long as it isn't Leeds.....

 

[BBassic]

Derby for me. Definitely not Villa or Leeds. Baggies wouldn't be too bad.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Leeds and Villa will spend big - not that it always ends well - plus they have good managers.

Derby have the weakest squad and won’t spend

So Derby

And then Derby trounced us in the playoffs.

Until Bobby popped up in the final for QPR

Villa, Baggies and Leeds have overseas billionaire owners, therefore I'll go for FL Derby, owned by local businessman Mel Morris.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Until Bobby popped up in the final for QPR

Yes. Derby still hate him.

In towards Ulloaaaaaaaa

Derby - Decent away day and not likely to exceed our spending.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Villa v West Brom, 12:30


Villa going up makes next season harder. Come on West Brom.

Albion, albion....

 

[Icy Gull]

A West Brom vs Derby final with a Derby win would be my choice


Villa and Leeds screwing it up would be perfect, fans gutted and kicking off, less threat to us next season because they are both likely to spend VERY big.
