Consider ourselves unjinxed.
So who would we lose?
Who would we replace them with?
CH poached?

Would take an awful bollock up for us not to be promoted this season and the consequences are best not thought about so close to Christmas
I disagree. There's a long way to go and a lot of points to be won and lost between now and the end of the season. Plus 6 pointers against our rivals. Anything can happen.

Quite. We're not even at the halfway stage yet.

It would be the tipping point for our club.
One season too many in the Championship, trying to compete with those with greater resources. CH would make a dignified exit, having taken the club as far as he could. Pastures new for Dunk, Stephens, Kayal and possibly Knocky and March. Those also disappearing would include Bruno, Sidwell and KLL. Trollope would get the managerial role and our days of competing at the top end of the Championship would come to an end.
Many people said that last season was our best chance of going up. They were wrong. This season is clearly our best chance and maybe our last for quite a while.

I tend to agree. Although Tony has very deep pockets this current season represents a massive and I'd say one off investment (we'll see in January) which although fine under the new FFP rules, if unsuccesful would require an adjustment over the subsequent 2 seasons to work.
This IS our chance. If we don't take it we're in trouble

Yep, this scenario is still the most likely for each individual club, even Newcastle. Like everyone else we will give it our best and if we miss out it really isn't the end of the world.
Can I put you in the 'glass half full' category of Albion fan?
Edited for you.

Tony has only just given his ongoing commitment to see us in the top league.
We'll dust ourselves down and have another go next year if we need to.

Although I agree to a certain extent with you regarding the coming and goings of players and maybe Chris you are basically saying that Tony and the board will give up next season.
Quite a few clubs have got close and not made it over the years.
I agree this seems to be our best chance but there is too far to go yet.
Maybe 1 or 2 additions in January and no serious injuries and I think we should do it, but I don't think Tony would give up and be happy for us to be mid table fodder, he wants his money back for starters and he does not strike me as a person that gives up very easily.
