So it’s us against the Saints, the best two teams in the playoffs. The Baggies offered nothing tonight and deserved to lose. The Saints won easily in the end, despite being denied an obvious penalty.
Two teams full of attacking threat should make for a brilliant final. I can’t wait for Rutter to rip the Saints a new one on a wide open Wembley pitch.
The best is yet to come

They've beaten us twice so possible sods law we go and win the one that matters. The two sides that deserve to be at Wembley for third place, we deserve it more than them based on points, but they've beaten us comfortably twice, so the best team on the day wins. Can't call it, really hope it doesn't go to pens.

The more an outcome fails to occur, the more likely it is to occur the next time. Previous results will count for little here. Both teams deserve it IMO so it's hard to pick for me, but perhaps Leeds just edge it. Looking forward to a great game with lotsa drama and may the best team win.

I swear Leeds fans are the most bipolar on this site. One minute it’s Farke out and they haven’t got a hope of getting through the playoffs. Next minute they’re on top of the world after beating a dismal Norwich side and are going to rip the saints a new one.

We're no different than any other team that has a passionate support. I've kept an eye on the Leicester boards this season and have seen the diversity of comments about the team, the manager and the owner.
Our record in the play offs does lead to a lot of pessimism but no doubt you will be cheering us on in the final.

I’ll be supporting Southampton as I like south coast clubs doing well but both teams very worthy premier league clubs.
Whoever doesn’t go up this season will win the title next season and come up that way.

Whoever loses will have a completely different team next year so anything could happen

I think whatever the result, '98 problems' sums up Leicester next season, starting with a massive points deduction and rumours of players already heading for the exit door.
Enjoy yourself next season and if we do get promoted, can I say 'thank you' in advance for the six points we'll get from you?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That’s the problem when you get your info from the daily mail - it’s usually wrong. No one is heading for exit door other than those whose contracts are expiring and we don’t want to keep (Iheanacho and Ndidi for eg).
I’d wager with 6 points deducted we’d still finish above you next season if you got promoted. You’ve been absolutely abysmal since the international break - unless you spend big next season, then you’re coming back down with us

The difference with Leeds fans is how incredibly cocky they get very quickly. “We’re gonna smash the 100 points barrier” from early this season as a prime example. Now you’re gonna smash Southampton. Next you’ll be ripping the premier league a new one. Short memories given how absolutely rotten you’ve been for the last 8 weeks or so

So the Leeds fans were talking the same as your's when you were 17/18pts in front of us, a shame Leeds had a start that set them back the first 5 or 6 games, because if they'd had the start you's had you's wouldn't have finished as champions!..
Southampton is another that had a bad start, but hey, good and bad never work together and can make or break a season!..

Looking forward to it , I have got close ties with Southampton so am a little biased, but I think that they will nick it.
Can we please have some sensible refereeing,and best of luck to the winners.

No the Leeds fans were talking about that at the start of the season - before you’d done anything. Cockiest fans on this site. Leicester fans were very much waiting for it to go wrong - and it almost did
