Denver Royal
John Smith
Denver Royal Right now, who are the 3 teams you have going down?

Burton, Barnsley, Bolton.
You?


I think I might be buying the beers after this, but I've just seen Sunderland's remaining fixtures, and I'm not too sure about Coleman in a crisis, so I'll go with:
Burton
Barnsley
Sunderland


This was from back in early Feb.

John is getting the beers in! :P

Despite the final day antics, earlier in the season based purely on quality of opposition it did look like those three would go down.

Quite enjoying the play off semi so far

Derby setting up very much like we did against ‘the neutral’s choice’ last year and 1-0 up at the moment

There's not a great choice among the 4. Wouldn't mind Derby winning it but we usually play well against them so I kinda want them to stay.

The only thing that will make them spontaneously explode would be to slot Leeds in there somehow.

Wonder how many times Leeds will be on next season? I reckon 16.

:lol: yep how many times....

Couple of those Fulham lads seemed to think they’d already won promo the way they were celebrating after.

Thought Derby were pretty lame. Didn’t seem to have a lot of belief, not one of the better play off sides of recent times

See Schteve is taking over at QPR - didn’t even realise Holloway had gone. Little harsh that I think

I thought Kasey Palmer showed minor flashes of brilliance when he came on. The only one who bothered to take the game by the scruff of the neck and run at them. If we could get him on loan next season (as he will no doubt be loaned somewhere...)

Parky...
"Reports in the north east suggest Bolton boss Phil Parkinson is on the shortlist to become the next manager of Sunderland".

Stam...
"Odds tumble on Jaap Stam to take charge at the Liberty Stadium. Stam is reportedly under consideration to become Swansea City's next head coach. The former Manchester United centre-back was sacked as Reading boss in March, but the 45-year-old is still said to be highly regarded in the coaching game.

Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf report Swansea City are eyeing up Stam as their new manager. Now on the lookout for a new man, it’s explained if Swansea City can find a deal with Stam then the manager will get to work with fellow Dutchmen Luciano Narsingh, Leroy Fer, Mike van der Hoorn and Erwin Mulder at the club.

Appointing Stam as manager is step in the direction of a possession football ethos that once set Swansea apart - and that they know full well can eventually get them to where they want to be".
