Playoffs

First topic message reminder :

Well, it's something football related to discuss....no?

So......

Leicester v Watford

Palace v Brighton

Got to fancy Leicester to stuff Udinese Reserves, as the force is with them......

Not sure about the other game........

I'm going to put a fiver on palace - Holloway seems to have a knack for making his team slip under the radar - nobody expected blackpoo to win the Playoffs, never mind making it into the finals.

Brighton for me, on a roll with a half decent squad.
From a purely selfish perspective however, I hope that Watford win the play-offs. They will probably lose most of their decent loan signings in the close season, the regulations regarding foreign loan signings will be changed before the start of next season and they are currently banned from signing any players before 1st September 2013. This should make them nailed on for a swift return to the Championship!

Like to see Brighton do it. They've come a fair way and Poyet has done a great job there.

I can't stand Holloway, and Freedman who preceded him, so that's Palace out for me.

Watford had it given to them on a plate yesterday and couldn't finish it. Plus I'm not a big Elton John fan, so don't want to see them go up.

And well Leicester is Leicester. Don't deserve to be there instead of Bolton if you ask me.

Have to agree with that. Brighton certainly have been one of the better footballing sides for a couple of years, but selfishly, it would be better to get Watford up for the reasons you mention.

For purely selfish reasons, I'm going with Leicester as they are my best mates' team and it would be great to do some away days with him next season. Following that, Watford as I know I can get tickets for that and it's easy to get to for me PLUS they will be whipping boys next season...I hope.

Not Brighton as they need to do their time in the Championship yet and anybody but frickin' Palace. Their fans proved themselves to be nasty and vindictive when we were both fighting it out for the top spots earlier in the season, worse than anyone else. I don't get the media obsession with Holloway either, such a whinger and not as funny as he thinks he is.
