Shit man, that's heavy.
but I've got a pretty big bet on Brighton to be promoted.

If we face you at Wembley I will certainly have divided loyalties.

I'll probably be unhappy whatever the result is!
Blimey, how much? If it's that much, can you offset it / cash in?

So, how much would you have to stand to win (if there's a figure at all!) to hope Brighton lose in the playoffs?
>£1k <£10k.

It's not a life changing amount of money, but it's more than enough to turn my head!

If we don't go up this year we'll probably go up next season, and it will mean we'll fire that twerp Redknapp.

I've never seen Brighton in the top division my whole life (31- okay we were in Division 1 until I was 3 months old and we've been generally shit since then) so our perspectives may be different.
 




Interesting that some bet against The Albion as some kind of "insurance" . The bet at present is us to beat Derby (outright). back us to win enough to pay for a train ticket to London, a Wembley ticket, 8 London price pints in a plastic cup and an oversized foam hand. If the bet goes down you won't need the money anyway!

I reckon above £10k and I'd be backing the other team, although I'd feel bad afterwards. Anything in the "deposit on a home" category really.

I will win a small amount if QPR get promoted due to a bit of trading, no conflict of interests here at all though.

If you literally just mean cheer then not a huge amount. afterall my cheering alone would be unlikely to influence the score.

It's enough to buy a car, but not enough to buy a house.

I can definitely cash in, but at the moment it's not really worth it.

If QPR play Brighton in the final, it's definitely an option though.

That's some wedge. Just wear your T shirt sideways and cheer on the good guys.

Unless I lay off, I'm almost sure to be cheering Brighton.

I actually prefer playing in the Championship than the Premier League. It's so effing boring turning up each week knowing in advance we're going to lose. And as I live 300 miles from Loftus Road I haven't got a ST any more and buying one off tickets from the Premier League is almost impossible in our shitty stadium.

Unless it means we are in danger of going bust because of the debts Fernandes (possibly a real threat - the numbers are kept secret from supporters) has lumbered us with I'm happy not to get promoted.

Redknapp gets fired, we get a young, imaginative manager (Eddie Howe please) and we get rid of all the crap, ageing, out to get one last big pay cheque players Warnock, Hughes and Harry have purchased.

The one good thing under Fernandes is we have developed quite an impressive youth system. Let's give some of them a chance plus a few astute buys from other Championship sides and League 1 + Charlie Austin, Matt Phillips and Rob Green.

Yeah. That all sounds good. (A million to one it actually happens)

Come on Albion!
