what do you think the best result for fulham is.
my head says the sooner we get promoted the better so a bournemouth win would seem to be the best result.
Draw.....they both drop points. Huddersfield even less likely to catch us and Bournemouth stay well behind us.
Forgive my ignorance in these matters, but I would have thought a draw would be a better result for us. Id much prefer at this stage for our main goal to be clear win of the Championship, with no limping over the line. We need all associated with the Premier League to realise that we have arrived for real this time.
Draw with a red card and a 3 game ban for Solanke!
I'm hoping for a Huddersfield win, if not, a draw. We are going up unless we capitulate and I want us to be champions.

it is just opinion and yours is valid. I do like what you say but years of disapointment suggests to me that get across the prom :plus one:otion line ASAP and then worry about the championship. we need to beat the third place, not the second place team to go up and going up is the real prize.
Huddersfield win, I actually think Bournemouth will win this comfortably the extra 24 hours rest they've had should pay dividends, hopefully Bournemouth win every game they've got left excluding when they play us of course,
By the same token their supporters will be cheering us on when we play the likes of Boro and Forest.
Automatic promotion has to be our priority right now and only when that is achieved do we start looking to top the table.
A draw today please with a few cards scattered among both teams.
Draw suits me but I'm thinking Huddersfield may edge this one unless there's a decent ref who doesn't allow the dark arts.
Got to be a Huddersfield win. They will be 11 points behind having played 2 matches more.
Boscombe 1 up.
2 up now...Huddersfield defence cost both goals.

I don't think the PL will be convinced until/unless FFC brings in some new faces to start a Prem campaign. (Assuming FFC gains promotion, "bwak, bwak", I'm not a chicken counter.)
Bournemouth only 5 behind if they win this and their other game in hand. QPR game is massive if we want to finish as Champions

Yup
At the moment Luton up to third.
All over 3-0
So many factors in the Championship, probably what makes it such an even playing field. WBA celebrated reaching the giddy heights of 12th after beating us then follow it up by struggling at Bristol City. Pleased to see Luton winning again, they're on a great run.
Promotion wise it's a great result for us, for winning the title, not so much. Will probably come down to the game against them which decides it
How are Bournemouth only 5 behind us with this win, after starting with 11 points behind us? shouldn't that now mean they are 8 behind us?
15th April Luton play Nottingham Forest. . They both have winnable fixtures before then and that could be the big decider as to who iwill possibly still be challenging . Nothing is certain as look how West Brom, Blackburn and now Huddersfield have dropped away.
We still have to play both of these teams but I cannot see Bournemouth dropping enough points to lose second place.
The sprinkling of premier league standard players Bournmouth & FFC have is a huge advantage, would be difficult for anyone else to gate crash the top two.

I think this was referencing the fact that they have 1 game in hand still... so win that and it is 5 points.... if they manage to beat us its down to 2.... but we are getting closer to promotion with Huddersfield slipping up...
COYW
None of it will make any difference as long as we at least match their results. Personally I would love to win it at Bournemouth with a Mitrovic hat trick.
It really is looking like us and Bournmouth for promotion with an interesting scramble among a lot of teams for a play off places
However lets see us score a few goals and collect some more wins before we make predictions..
I think we will pick up a minimum of 10 points from our next 5 games and will celebrate promotion at either Derby or home to Preston :wine:
