Wagner makes 10 changes to the starting line up, have 78% possession (in my mind one of the most useless stats around) and get hammered 2-0 by a 10 man relegation threatened Birmingham who live to fight another week.
Leeds drew 3-3 and need to catch up 13 goals on Fulham in the last game to get a gig in the play-offs ....failing that....Reading, Sheffield Wednesday, Huddersfield Town and Fulham United will play off for the third promotion spot..

The video of Millwall fans celebrating the 85th minute winner to get into the play offs to be involved in this tread is why we all love football so much.

Newcastle United winning the Championship thanks to an 89th minute Aston Villa equaliser by Jack Grealish against Brighton..
Huddersfield finished in 5th. spot losing to 0-3 Cardiff and also lost their keeper Danny Ward to a red card in the 20th minute.
Think we front up against Sheffield Wednesday in the play-offs...Fulham will front up against Reading..

Personally I'm hoping Fulham win the playoffs, they've finished strongest.
Oh, and sorry to Leeds, better luck next time

Bradford have apparently said the reason for their poor ticket sales is that their fans are frightened because they're playing Millwall

Re: England - 2016-17 Still Going In The Championship :)
I watch both these games and I wasn't impressed (the 1-1 game was better that the 0-0 game) but it could have been that all teams didn't want to lose the first game I would hope there would be more adventure from all these teams in the second legs.swannsong wrote:Playoffs - 1st Legs

Based on these games, all of these teams will struggle in the Premier League.

But you're right, whoever comes up will most likely go straight back down.

yep Elland road would have been pumping with 50K in the stands - now that would have been great to see and hear. Still can not believe they shot themselves in the foot in the last 6 games.Nice One Cyril wrote:Mr Red wrote: quote]

You'd imagine they would do some vigorous off-season recruiting, but all depends on wallet size I guess.Nice One Cyril wrote:You're just jealous because dirty Leeds aren't involvedMr Red wrote:I watch both these games and I wasn't impressed (the 1-1 game was better that the 0-0 game) but it could have been that all teams didn't want to lose the first game I would hope there would be more adventure from all these teams in the second legs.swannsong wrote:Playoffs - 1st Legs

It's going to extra time, although I think Huddersfield should win on away goals.

That would be fair, as long as away goals in extra time don't count in the away goal rule.
