The Championship 2019-20

Holy shit

Small matter of a match tonight not directly involving the Bees
shame it's not being shown on the box.

 

[Numbers]

Massive games both ends of the table.

I'm not sure I should admit this Now, Bees are my number 2 team but I don't have a tiny soft spot for the Albion. Many years ago, I sat next to Cyril Regis for Brom V Palace. What a great chap. He spent a good seal of the match signing autographs and chatting to anyone and everyone
Really want Bees to go up if it's not a poisoned chalice. Saw the new stadium again Sunday and it's looking good.

Fair result , everything to play for still.

Wigan though, and only half time

Yeah, it's a horror show for Hull!

 

[hash tag]

Second half was only 1-0.

 

[cyril_smear]

Surely they can’t this time. I hope they do like, but now I’ve said that they’ll batter Swansea today

People were saying the same thing last year when they were on fire and they ended up losing(can't remember which team) to a team at the bottom end of the table when it all really counted.

 

[mod]

Brentford are in cracking form for sure, even if they don't get automatic promotion then you have to back them to win the play offs.

Agreed. As a Fulham fan I want them to get 2nd spot. Would much prefer West Brom in the POs

Crazy that going into tonights round of games not a single team in the championship was guaranteed to be playing there next season. Every team has a mathematical chance of either being promoted or relegated, with just 3 games left!

And that Wigan score just blew the whole Championship up

Incredible stat. Wonder if it’s ever happened before.

It "really counted" on sunday away to swansea - and leeds came away with all 3 points. Last year, leeds form seriously dipped over the last quarter of the season. this time round it hasn't - lost two of the last fifteen and won four and drawn 1 of their last five games. they need 4 points from the next three - and that's only if brentford win all theirs. But if you want to take a punt on leeds not getting promoted go ahead - you'd get some very good odds.

 

[Numbers]

Baggies the only ones faltering dropping 4 points in the last 2 games.
Bees are overdue a dip tho'

 

[technical]

Play off positions look sorted bar who's going to finish 2nd/3rd.

Bottom end is interesting - and if Wednesday get a points deduction we're potentially right in the mix

 

[Numbers]

I’ve ordered Sky Sports HD for a month, usually get a decent stream but not taking any chances. Bees are live tonight and Saturday + all the play off games will be live.

I wish. Cardiff still not safe, I wouldn’t lose sleep over missing out on 6th(it never looked a possibility until very recently) apart from the fact that if we lose out it’s likely to be those 6 fingered Jack bastards that rake our place!

Looking forward to the Bees collapsing in play-off semi finals against the Bluebirds, but if they’re playing Swansea I hope they continue their amazing run.

 

[Numbers]

Yes Bees

Watkins is some finisher.

 

[hash tag]

Get in.

 

[co-op]

Bloody hell, this would outdo Brentford's run to the League 1* title (*was it still that then?) in 1992-93. They won the last 6 and pipped Birmingham for the title on the last day, I was up at London Rd for Peterborough away on that day (brother was a mad Brentford fan) and Sky had sent the trophy to St Andrews they were so sure Brum would win it.

 

[Numbers]

Wasn’t it 91/92? in the Third Division

 

[Numbers]

Leeds were Champions of the 1st division that year

 

[hash tag]

Never in doubt

 

[Numbers]

Phew

Hard game that, crucial 3 points.

 

[Kaka Tim]

brentford - you are annoying me now. Was all set up for leeds to clinch it tonight at home to barnsley - but will have to wait a few more days.

 

[Numbers]

Should be a stroll in the park for youse.

 

[cyril_smear]

so if Leeds win tonight is that them promoted?

Not yet. If they lost the last 2 games and the Bees and Baggies win theirs both get automatic promotion.

I dip in and out football. The BBC was showing them as being on 87 points before this game!
