After 90 mins yesterday we looked a very good outside chance for automatic but sadly that changed in the next couple of minutes so anything can happen between now and the end of season.
Here's ... err ... hoping.One of my favourite quotes and often used in relation to the Albion/SNCC/England football over the years. Not sure it applies as much to the Albion these days ... We'll see.
Welcome to the Stattos' Club, El P.
This is my current season's end prediction:
91 Cardiff City
84 Hull City
79 Watford
77 Crystal Palace
72 Nottingham Forest
71 Brighton & Hove Albion
69 Leicester City
64 Bolton Wanderers
64 Middlesbrough
62 Millwall
Cardiff and Hull have already done enough to secure automatic promotion. Watford and Palace are securely assured of playoff places. Forest, Albion and Leicester have stuff to play for. And the rest might as well go home.
It's interesting that whatever way you do it, we get Watford over 2 legs. Gus will need to work out how to deal with their pace to have a change
1. Cardiff 89
2. Watford 82
3. Hull City 81
4. Palarse 80
5. Brighton 77
6. Forest 72
7. Leicester 71
My bottom three interestingly are -
20. Peterborough 53 (GD -11)
21. Barnsley 53 (GD -18)
22. Wolves 52
23. Huddersfield 49
24. Bristol City 46
50 points usually means your safe but that means nothing this year !! I also have it down as Wolves needing a win on the final day to stay up, but the game wouldnt be a must win for us - predicted a 2-2.
Depends really, if Leicester win then there certainly is more pressure, if Watford win then some pressure is off - also depends if we have already sealed a spot or not.
1 Cardiff 94
2 Hull 87
------------------------
3 Watford 83
4 Forest 77
5 Albion 75
6 Palace 75
------------------------
7 Leeds 66
8 Bolton 65
..

20 Ipswich 54
21 P'boro 53
------------------------
22 Hudds 52
23 Barnsley 48
24 Bristol City 47
With only 4 points separating 14th and 22nd, going to be tight down there.
Cardiff 96
Hull 86
Watford 83
Palace 72
BHA 71
Forest 70 (+6)
------------------
Birmingham 70 (+1)
Zola v Gus for the Wembley Final then!
1 Cardiff 93
2 Hull 87
------------------------
3 Watford 83
4 Brighton 79
5 Palace 77
6 Leicester 71
------------------------
7 Forest 71
8 Brum 69

20 Sheff Wed 53
21 P'boro 52
------------------------
22 Wolves 51
23 Barnsley 50
24 Bristol City 41
That was fun
Worryingly this is how mine turned out:
Cardiff 90
Hull 85
Watford 78
Forest 73
Palace 72
Leicester 69
Albion 67
How depressing. 6 Points from next two games changes that though.
Your predictions are always like this LB - you basically print the table as is, and add some points. That's exactly how things stand now (except Millwall, who have games in hand).Welcome to the Stattos' Club, El P.

91 Cardiff City
84 Hull City
79 Watford

Am I the only one looking forward to Brentford and Bournemouth in The Championship next season if they make it up? Nice couple of local trips and cheaper than a £57 ticket to see the glorious BHAFC play at The Emirates.
With only 1 available striker that Gus is prepared to play,i have got more chance of getting to the moon than the Albion have of reaching the play offs.
