The Promotion Chasing Thread

[Rammy]

Haha, I hadn't even picked up on that!

 

[Munkiki]

The worst thing is I knew that.

My point still kinda stands. Hughton is shit, Watford are good. It's over.

 

[Munkiki]

Here you go, a stat to back up my claim.

In the last 18 games a Hughton side has gone behind, his record is W0 D0 L18 - equalising in just 2 of them and conceding almost 4x as many goals as they score (F9 A35).

 

[Rammy]

There's a first time for everything!

 

[PDS]

Watford have the title sewn up now you'd imagine. Playing last could have been a huge advantage but Middlesborough will brush the utter rubbish that is Fuham aside with ease. Massive pressure on us for Monday.

 

[Hooray]

Grabban red card, and will now be suspended for Fulham next week and both leg's of the play-off semi's.

 

[Munkiki]

I've been thinking about it and I've decided the only way the finale to this season can live up to the season itself is if one of the following happens:
Watford win & lose, Bournemouth and Middlesbrough win & draw, Norwich win both
OR Watford draw & lose, Bournemouth and Middlesbrough draw both, Norwich win & draw
OR Watford lose both, Bournemouth and Middlesbrough draw & lose, Norwich win & lose

Well, that's two of the three ruled out already.

And there goes the third. Oh well, it was a long shot for us all to finish level anyway.

 

[Hooray]

This ref in the Rotherham game sounds appalling.

That's not to say Grabban didn't deserve his red though. He punched out (apparently), so can have no arguments.

 

[Hooray]

Turner scores for Fulham against Boro!

If we can somehow win this, it puts all the pressure on Bournemouth on Monday.

 

[PDS]

Nothing like a bit of false hope!

Still have zero confidence in Fulham holding on, but I will never say anything bad about them again if they do this

 

[TractorBoys]

Halfway there for us, 45 minutes away from sealing top six (bar a disastrous string of big scorelines final day).

Worrying for Derby, lifeline for Wolves & Brentford.

I'd take the HT results now if I could, think they're enough for us.

 

[Rammy]

Whatever happens, we need to replace our entire defence over the summer. They're dreadful, the lot of them.

 

[Hooray]

^^^ Cyrus Christie is one of the worst professional footballers I've ever seen

And he's not even playing for you boys today.

 

[PDS]

I love you Fulham.

If Rotheram score now I genuinely think I might wet myself

 

[Hooray]

HOOOOP, THERE IT IS!!!

You fucking beauty.

 

[PDS]

Arses.

And Boro pull one back too.

 

[SUTSS]

When I said before the game that I wasn't nervous that has not been the experience of this game.

 

[Railway Blue]

Apologies in advance if this seems a dumb question, but will Bournemouth groundshare with Southampton next season or attempt to enlarge their own small stadium. Anyway good luck as it's only a few years ago that you were down at the bottom of L2 with us.

 

[Hooray]

3-1 to Fulham and Boro down to 10-men.

What a season. What a finish to it.

 

[TractorBoys]

Fuck sake, Brentford 2 up.

It's awfully fucking tight.

 

[Hooray]

This is getting tense. Derbyshire misses an open goal. Mark Rivers on Radio Norfolk says it's one of the worst misses he's ever seen.

Nice to finally have a bit of luck. Just need to hold on now. Or kill it off.

 

[TractorBoys]

We've gone 4-3-3... Varney has had a couple of chances, inches wide with a header a moment ago.

I think we're gunna go hell for leather in this last 10... most likely results next week means in all honesty the difference between a draw and a loss today is minimal/none. I'd rather us go all out for the win.

 

[TractorBoys]

I was saying... :hesk:

10 minutes Town, we've just about done it.

 

[SUTSS]

Not really sure how Rotherham haven't scored.

 

[Munkiki]

Not really sure how Rotherham haven't scored.

 

[Hooray]

Another crazy Championship afternoon. I'll miss these if we do somehow go up.

 

[SUTSS]

Gutting to draw with Fulham winning.

 

[PDS]

ROSS MCCORMACK YOU WONDERFUL MAN

 

[AFCB_Mark]

That Fulham match was utterly bonkers. Like this entire division. I'm shaking. Gonna go rock back and forth in the corner for a while, don't mind me.

 

[JJH]

What a day in this crazy division.
