Championship Promotion Race

So the promotion battle in the Championship looks intense with 3 teams all on 87 points with three games to go. So who do people think and want to go up into the premier league?

I hope we see Brighton, Middlesbrough and Sheffield Wednesday as it would be different to whom we normally see in the teams like Burnley and Hull. I know Boro have been in it before but not for a while and it would be good for one of the north east teams to be replaced by another.

However I think Burnley and Brighton will go up automatically and I think Derby will win the play offs. I don't know I think Middlesbrough will fall into Play Offs and can see them losing that.

Its a close race and one im definitely keeping an eye on. Especially considering I have two Brighton Season Tickets.

Burnley, Boro and Derby to win the play-offs.

The Seaweed/Toffee Benders to capitulate again

Coming from Brighton it'd be great to see them go up, especially as we've had two really decent games against them in the cup recently.

However I'm not sure they're ready - Hughton has done a fantastic job, considering where Brighton were last year, but should they go up I can see them coming back down, not sure they'd be able to attract the sort of player to keep them in the division, though with the TV money and lure of the PL who knows. They have some great facilities in place too.

Want to see 'Boro go up (it'd be great to see a double celebration at the Riverside from both sets of fans, but unlikely) with Brighton, and Sheff Wed via playoffs.

Derby will bottle it again, but I can unfortunately see Burnley, Boro and Hull all going up

Cool, I hate seeing vast swathes of plastic on match days.

There was 8,000 - 9,000 there for the away game at Burnley last Tuesday evening just to watch it on the big screen.

Brighton to go up and don't care about the others.

I'm going to Brighton v Derby on Monday for the last home game of the season.
