Championship playoffs: Who's going to win?

[skyscraper101]

And despite losing last night, it was still Reading's 6th most successful season ever.

Tragic.

 

[g force]

That's short-termism in football for you. Stupid decision that suggests they'll be a championship side for seasons to come.

 

[Flashman]

Well it's up to him, he thinks he's failed the club so decided to fall on his sword.

Shame. I like him, good manager, and one of my first favourite players.

Come on Brrnleh!

 

[skyscraper101]

Yeah you've got to respect Coppells wishes. He's done better with the side than any previous manager and nobody can take that away from him. At the end of the day the team let him down and he feels that he should step aside.

He was going to go at the end of last season when they were relegated but decided to stay on. I suppose now is as good a time as any. Reading need to sort their act out and get back to winning more games (especially at home).

Shame though.

Are you a Wednesday fan Octagon?

Aye, albeit one in exile down South.

 

[Onket]

What a fucking joke Reading are!!

 

[belboid]

aah Burnley v Sheffield United, a re-run of my second ever match (one Burnley won 4-1, tho even now I recall how they got one ultra-raggy penalty, and united were denied a couple).

i hope united win, if only on the basis that then I could go to a premier game or two, but it would also be kinda nice to see Burnley back there after 30+ years (probably the same season as that game I saw)

Yeah, they were last in the top flight in 1976...

 

[goldenecitrone]

Hope Burnley get through. I used to have cardboard football cards with them on the last time they were in division 1.

Yeah, they were last in the top flight in 1976...

and fucked themselves completely by building the Bob Lord stand, they never recovered from the expense, and hardly ever filled the fucker either
