Someone needs to make Derby look good.

Will have to go for Palace - it's Colin after all isn't it and he'll win it just to piss the other teams off!

No one giving Bristol or Watford a shout?
IMO Bristol haven't got enough goals in them, didn't they end with a minus GD? That said they did sign off with a 3 nil thumping of Preston.
Watford haven't seemed to have been at the races for a while unlike 2006 when they were on fire
Anything could happen!

I just can't see it being Bristol - they had a really good season but there are other teams with more experience. I don't think they will make it thru their semi

My money would be on palace - cracking run to get into the play-offs, and i think Hull & Brizzle blew their chance of going up. Watford are out of form so its the Eagles for me!

my money's on Brizzle Cizzle, theyve been the dark horses all season and at 1 point were favourites to go up....i reckon the can upset Palace and as long as Hull dont go up then its cool
theyre going straight back down however with less points than Derby

Palace for me too.
No offence to Watford, but i think if we had sneaked in, we might have had a decent chance of winning them, unlike Watford, who don't offer nothing and are so out of form.

I hate being favorites I love being underdogs How do you genuinely rate your chances GB? Im noit very confident i hate the favorite tag. We dont deserve it, it was supposed to be about survival this season and very exceeded all thoses expectations. To be here is a brilliant bonus but i cant see us going up. Still, the playoffs are a lottery so you never know.

'ull - CP final with CP winning that by the odd goal...
I'd expect good games in the semis and then a shite final

I hope that it's Palarse, because I don't think that the others will do as well next season in the championship, whereas Palarse could build on this season. ;D

We dont deserve it, it was supposed to be about survival this season and very exceeded all thoses expectations. To be here is a brilliant bonus but i cant see us going up. Still, the playoffs are a lottery so you never know. Genuinely mate, we don't deserve to go up. To play like we did early on in the season, set the league alight, go 8/9 points clear etc, only to implode and waste such an great start and barely scrape in the playoffs, we don't deserve to go up. Thing is, we have to go up for the good of the club, financially we need to. Funny really, as when we beat Leeds in Cardiff '06, that season we were favourites to go down. I was saying then what you're saying now - it's a bonus just to be in the playoffs. For us this time round, it's the bare minimum. Personally, I prefer the Championship as it's more exciting, but we need Premiership football. If you look at the teams in the mix; You got Hull, who so far have had an unbelievable season and deserve to go up. You got Brizzle, who, like Hull, have played above expectations all season long and fully deserve their place in playoffs. You got Palace, who have been completely turned around by Colin, and come in the playoffs in superb form. Most peoples tip to win. Then you have my team, Watford, we were near untouchable until October when Albion dicked us 3-0 at home. Since then it's been shit, shit and more shit. Like you say, playoffs are a lottery. It's usually the team that wants it the most and fights for it the most that earns promotion, not necessarily the most in form. I have no idea who will win, but I know I'm backing Watford out of blind optimism! ;D
