[Football] Who will join us in the PL ? Playoff thread

[Blue Valkyrie]

Villa 0 West Brom 1

Championship play offs

Who do we want to win it?

Villa v WBA
Frank Lampards Derby County v Dirty Leeds.

Baggies currently 1-0 up at Villa Park.

I’m a bit torn, I couldn’t possibly want the Dirties to win, don’t want Rodriquez to finish the season on a high cos of Gaeton Bong, also didn’t think they should have sacked Moore, so WBA is out. Villa would be the biggest threat to us next season, plus, their supporters were complete arsehats when they stopped us winning the league.
So, it looks like I’m going to be rooting for FL’s Derby County, by default.

Surely we want the weakest team - Derby

Surely we want the weakest team - Derby

Given that a) they're not Leeds b) they don't have Grealish c) they don't have Rodriguez and d) we beat them easily at the Amex I concur!!

 

[Nixonator]

Derby for a few reasons. No brainer.

Albert Adomah still playing for villa if you needed any more incentive to see them crash and burn.

 

[perseus]

I fancied Villa and Derby at the beginning of the season, but I rate WBA now.


0-1 and sunny when I started this post, now 2-1 and torrential rain.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Villa turn it around to 2-1, great strike from Hourihane and a pen.

Villa v Leeds final with Villa going up IMO.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Should have been a penalty for WBA.

Brummies are funny.

It would be nice if Sky’s commentators could bring themselves to say something even vaguely critical of Dwight Gayle.

After being booked for timewasting he’s been rolling around, whining to the ref, faking injury and was extremely lucky not to get sent off.

One misplaced pass and we get “that’s the first thing Gayle has done wrong all game”.

You got your wish as he is sent off.

He has behaved like a complete idiot. He may have cost his team a place in the Premier league. What a Muppet.

You can take the boy out of palace .......

West Brom should have had a penalty and don’t really see why Gayle was sent off. He pulls out of the challenge, despite the co-comm repeatedly claiming he didn’t. A striker has to go for a ball like that and can’t do more than pull his studs back once he’s got the momentum.

Tough for them now. Don’t care who wins though so not too bothered...

Gayle should have walked 5 minutes before, after again trying to con the ref. Bad game management from WBA in not taking him off. Good

Didn't Abraham do the same when he should have conceded the penalty?

All this holding the head/face stuff has really been on the increase and really does piss me off. Pity a ref can't apply a retrospective yellow up to 60 seconds later when the player makes a miraculous recovery

 

[Motogull]

Ah well, a chuckle at John Terry at half time and a chuckle at Jay Rodracist at full time.

 

[Bladders]

FL Derby look awful

Irrelevant to that specific incident though.

A choice between Derby or Leeds is as bad as Liverpool or City for the title.
