By getting more points than everyone else bar Cardiff.

Table doesn't lie

 

[Buffalo Seagull]

What a load of crap! Of course they deserve it. The league table doesn't lie.

Hull is hardly tin pot; greater urban area is 500k +. They have a good manager and finished second, why on earth don't they "deserve" it? Does a club have to be liked on Facebook or something to get promoted now? And an Albion hero scored yesterday too.

Any team that has +9 GD is not worthy of an automatic spot

Any team that has +9 GD is not worthy of an automatic spot

and yet they got one fair and square.

Of course they deserve it and they've got the points to prove it.

 

[W.C.]

as said, the table doesn't lie

Steve Bruce is a t*** though

You see how they finished 2nd in the table? Yeah, that's how I think they did it.

They limped over the line in the end but did enough.

I think Watford may actually struggle and if anyone did not deserve to be in the play-offs it was Leicester- very lucky

Actually I have a lot of sympathy with the opening post.

Yes they deserve it, stats don't lie. But I thought they were so dour and boring and did little to entertain at The Amex. Goal difference isn't the best, they robbed us on the opening day when we created a host of chances.

I can't help but keep thinking about Kuszsz's error at Birmingham, Casper vs Forest, CMS missed penalty vs Leeds, Ashley's missed pens, inability to score prior to Ulloa........

Well done to Hull, but I'm not sure what they'll bring to the Prem other than being well organised.

Trouble is Leicester worry me, everything we don't cope with particularly well, physical, direct style....... Of course this is assuming we can beat Palace, which I've said in other posts worries me immensely.

I agree with both points !

I have a horrible feeling that their luck may well continue all the way to the Premier League

 

[Vegas Seagull]

You're right ; They scored 4 less than us at home and conceded 5 more.....& yet won 2 more games TRAVESTY

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Talk about get out of jail yesterday though....

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

I suppose the OP would have turned his nose up if Brighton had got promoted in 1991 with a negative goal difference, saying we didn't deserve it.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Maybe he means they are a pretty ordinary side. The fact that they went up says more about the quality of the Championship.

 

[Triggaaar]

You know this 'table doesn't lie' is a load of shit right?

There is such a thing as luck. Obviously over a season it evens itself out a bit, but not completely. To suggest that everyone's exactly where they should be means that no one should ever complain about dodgy decisions, no moaning about Zaha diving. Hull haven't been the second best team this season, it's just gone their way. But saying that, I don't really think Watford deserve it either, given that they've cheated the system with their foreign loans.

I thought Hull were a decent side at the Amex maybe one of the best I have seen here this season.
