Championship Play Offs

Palace v Bristol City
Watford v Hull

Who's going to get through that lot? Palace and Hull the form horses.

Here's praying BCFC can make it to the promised land.

As a Watford fan, I'll go along with that. Hull and CP in the final. Sadly I'd tip CP to win...

Please no. Neil Warnock has to be the biggest in football.

Have to say i'm quite happy to get Bristol City in the play-offs............plus we have quite a good record in the play-offs aswell


COME ON PALACE

[hornet boy]

We (Watford) will most certainly not get to the final. If fact I fully expect us to be well out of it after the 1st leg.

My thoughts as well. What a disaster to have that back in the Prem, pardon my french

[Negative Creep]

I'd like to see Hull or City go up, if only for some variety. However I do fear they'll end up doing a Derby............

I'm predicting we will hold Hull to a 0-0 for the first 60 minutes and then conceed 2 in the last 30 minutes!

I hate Boothroyd!

[Puggit]

Hopefully I might miss the first leg - I have a 2 day old daughter who needs looking after!

Perfect draw for Palace, just hoping that Watford get lucky over two legs against Hull (and obviously we do the business against BC), they certainly cant out football them.

Be leaving for Selhurst about 10.30

I've made sure I'll miss it. I'm going to a posh restaurant for lunch with friends!

[lingus75]

I am just thinking about two better goals in any league? Oh, sorry, there havent been any!

Drink up thy zider indeed! Followed the match last night on BBC internet - not the best way to do it, but don't have pay TV. If anyone's got a link to the two City goals, I'd be grateful. Can't wait for Tues, well, about 5 o'clock Wed morning for me.

Last time the Robins were in the top flight, Keegan had just left Liverpool for Hamburg...

Edit - just got the links from Lingus75 on the Best Goals thread. Not bad, not bad at all...

It doesn't help when the referee is a Hull fan!

Well that was all sadly predictable. To be honest, I don't want us to go up, as it'll just be too depressing to watch. I believe Boothroyd has the support of the board, but the fans seem to have turned, so I fear it's the beginning of the end for him. He has certainly made some odd selections and decisions of late. On top of that, there are worrying rumors circulating about the financial situation at the club. Again.

Must admit I've become increasingly disillusioned with football as a whole over recent years. Too much hype, froth and nonsense, which drives ever more unrealistic expectations.

I'm not too sure who played Bristol City on Saturday, but Palace certainly didnt turn up. If they do tomorrow then they may make a game of it, but to be honest I'd say the final is now def Hull v BC. Having watched both teams play Palace in the past couple of weeks I'd say BC will be going up, but (and this isnt sour grapes) I dont give them a prayer of seeing more than one season in the Prem...

Massively disappointed with Palace's performance, here's hoping they can still turn it round
