Ohio Saint Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 When it comes to play offs, I always want the highest finishing team during the normal season to get through, so fair play so far!
nta786 Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 SOUTHEND 1-1 SECOND HALF INJURY AET!!!! edit: penalties to follow.
Ohio Saint Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 Well done Southend!!! A great shootout tension thingy.
nta786 Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 Great penalty shootout as a neutral!! lol doesn't saint-armstrong work for southend or something? well looks like he's seeing league 1 football next season
Badger Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 Looking at the Southend side on the BBC pages, and wondered what has become of Lee Barnard ? Didn't he end up there ? But not on the bench even.
SuperMikey Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 That was intense! Pleased for Southend, I like them as a club so nice to see them back in L1. Bentley for Southend looks like a decent keeper as well, big character. Would be a huge step up for him but would he be worth a shot?
nta786 Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 that dan bentley keeper wasn't bad- and he was being touted as a 'future Prem keeper' maybe worth a look tbh i can't judge on one game...

Saint Pete Posted 23 May, 2015 Posted 23 May, 2015 Found it quite amusing when some of the Southend fans left the ground towards end of extra time thinking it was over, then turned round and tried to go back in for the penalties! Why on earth would you leave early when your team are only 1 down at Wembley FFS?

Why on earth would you leave early when your team are only 1 down at Wembley FFS? Funny thing is I was about to turn it off about 20 seconds before the equaliser went in! If you're at Wembley though you make the most of it, no point in leaving before FT.

S-Clarke Posted 24 May, 2015 Posted 24 May, 2015 Swindon being torn a new one by Preston. Currently PNE 3 - 0 Swindon, just before HT.
Saint Pete Posted 24 May, 2015 Posted 24 May, 2015 Some have suggested on here we should sell Gardos and use Stephens and/or Turnbull as centre back cover next season. Think that may be a mistake on the basis of the play-offs. Swindon conceded 5 in the 2nd leg of the semi and now another 3 today so far.

Wouldn't worry overmuch about it, I really doubt that we are planning to integrate either of them into the first team squad at any time soon. Edited 24 May, 2015 by Window Cleaner
Saint-Armstrong Posted 24 May, 2015 Author Posted 24 May, 2015 FULL-TIME: Preston North End 4-0 Swindon Town PRESTON NORTH END ARE PROMOTED TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP
SNSUN Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 I have a very nervous wife sitting next to me. I am keeping my mouth shut.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Come on Norwich , want to visit The Coach & Horses next season.
Window Cleaner Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Boro look beaten out there. Norwich have a side with a lot of top flight experience, not sure that's the case with Boro. Makes a difference on the big occasions I expect.
Patrick Bateman Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Boro look beaten out there. Good. Come on Norwich, knew they'd turn Middlesbrough over
simo Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 If Norwich come up their parachute payments get split between the rest of the premier league !
hypochondriac Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 If Norwich come up their parachute payments get split between the rest of the premier league ! Championship surely?
Window Cleaner Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Championship surely? Absolutely right, makes a bit of a windfall for the other 21 clubs. Especially as they shared out QPR's last season as well.
Jack Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Good stuff. Norwich is a really good away game, Boro is a sh*thole and at the wrong end of the country. If Norwich carry on keeping the ball like they have then they'll be fine.
rallyboy Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 I still haven't forgiven them for their small part in our relegation. Come back from 2-0 down now you ba$tards! #longmemory
simo Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Absolutely right, makes a bit of a windfall for the other 21 clubs. Especially as they shared out QPR's last season as well. Im sure I read it comes back to the premier league
Badger Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 I still haven't forgiven them for their small part in our relegation. Come back from 2-0 down now you ba$tards! #longmemory or the fact they dented our title hopes at The Riverside.
Window Cleaner Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Im sure I read it comes back to the premier league Could have changed in these last few years I suppose, last time I heard anything about it the money was shared between the other Championship clubs. Don't see that it would have changed because it's part of the grand plan for filtering Sky money throughout the leagues.
Shroppie Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Good stuff. Norwich is a really good away game, Boro is a sh*thole and at the wrong end of the country. If Norwich carry on keeping the ball like they have then they'll be fine. Totally agreed. Can't wait to get back to the Fat Cat pubs. Just a shame neither of Newcastle or Sunderland went down.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 25 May, 2015 Author Posted 25 May, 2015 FULL-TIME: Middlesbrough 0-2 Norwich City Welcome back to the Premier League then, Canaries.
Colinjb Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Fair play to Norwich. Alex Neil has done one hell of a job.
Batman Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Fair play to Norwich Cracking job their manager has done
Saint-Armstrong Posted 25 May, 2015 Author Posted 25 May, 2015 Championship, I'd prefer 1 of the East Anglian sides, good trip League 1, Preston - cos they deserve it League 2, Southend - as they're our 2nd team Only one who got close!
SNSUN Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Wife happy. Shame though, it'll be tougher to sign Redmond now!
S-Clarke Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Congratulations Norwich. Shame it wasn't much of a contest in the end. Boro didn't really turn up.
S-Clarke Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 I thought we were going to have another ''Let's be avin' you...'' moment then.
Lets B Avenue Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Is Harry taking the credit for this promotion as well?
S-Clarke Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Is Harry taking the credit for this promotion as well? Talking about Harry, fair play to Shearer last night on MOTD who said....''Redknapp needs to take the blame for QPR's relegation as well, people are forgetting him''.
Dark Munster Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 I still haven't forgiven them for their small part in our relegation. Come back from 2-0 down now you ba$tards! #longmemory Be careful RB, or you'll get one of CB Fry's trademark "That happened years ago, get over it" retorts.
CB Fry Posted 25 May, 2015 Posted 25 May, 2015 Be careful RB, or you'll get one of CB Fry's trademark "That happened years ago, get over it" retorts. If by "trademark" you mean something slightly similar to the words in quotation marks but not actually those words, and something said to you once about one particular thing and never to anyone else before or since about anything else, then yeah, that's a real trademark of mine. Maybe I should charge people to use it.
