Championship Playoff Final Thread!

Watford vs Palace.

The £120 million game as it is being billed.

I think Watford to win 3-1.

One things for certain, there won't be a lack of drama!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 26 May 2013, 9:59 pm

Although if the Great Wilbrahamovic starts I may have to revise that prediction to account for his sheer brilliance

by Duty281 Sun 26 May 2013, 10:02 pm

Palace to win 2-1 AET. £120 million? Goes up every year. It is the very meaning of pressure.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sun 26 May 2013, 10:40 pm

The best footballing moment of my life? Arguably Wembley 2012 the playoff final. The winner tomorrow? London Cool

by Guest Sun 26 May 2013, 10:54 pm

Palace will edge a scrappy affair by the one goal.

by GSC Mon 27 May 2013, 10:34 am

Hmm. Depends which Watford show up really. If its good Watford then Palace don't really stand much of a chance.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 11:54 am

IM WATFORD TILL TONIGHT, IM WATFORD TILL TONIGHT, I KNOW I AM IM SURE I AM IM WATFORD TILL TONIGHT.

Watford fully deserve promotion IMO, i said they deserved it more than us. They play the best football without question in the league and Zola will offer a lot to the Prem.

Palace have done very well and full credit to Holloway for getting them fired up in the play offs when it looked like the odds were against them, as they were up against the favorites to win the play offs. They played superb football that night and put in a real "away performance"

I recon 2-1 Palace sadly, but it will be a superb football match in the sun.

WILBRAHAM STARTS! BAH GAWD!

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 2:18 pm

Watford's team is sooo good. For the good of football i want them to get promoted, so many naturals should root for Watford.

Chalobah has a huge chance to show of his ability today. As do Williams and Zaha for Palace.

by Bull Mon 27 May 2013, 2:19 pm

ive worked out the scored from my perspective i know 2 palace players: Wilbrah and Zaha and i know Alumnia,Vydra and Chalo ..

Final score 3-2 Watford.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 2:21 pm

You have heard of Wilbah but have never heard of Kevin Phillips Headscratch

I like your score prediction though!

by Bull Mon 27 May 2013, 2:24 pm

i mean from the starting team lol thats where i got the score from.

Fair enough mate

Watford 3-2 Palace. Last minute winner from a Chalobah 90th min wonder goal would be bluddy epic.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:11 pm

hahahaha Zahhaaha dribbling of the pitch.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 27 May 2013, 3:13 pm

Atkinson in charge.

God help us

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:14 pm

His decision there to book that Watford player there was spot on though. However i can see Zaha coning Atkinson today.

by **Crimey** Mon 27 May 2013, 3:15 pm

Players look a little nervous with their final ball.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 27 May 2013, 3:18 pm

Both sides just need to find there stride.

Cagey so far

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 27 May 2013, 3:21 pm

Blow for Palace with Dikgacoi going off injured

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:23 pm

Superb block from Mr Watford Llyod Doyley. A goal from him today would be amazing!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 27 May 2013, 3:29 pm

Zaha's got the beating of the Watford defenders everytime

by **Crimey** Mon 27 May 2013, 3:29 pm

Crystal Palace starting to take a hold.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:31 pm

Dirty from Jedinak, very dirty. Rightfully booked.

by GSC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:32 pm

Wilfried Zaha looking like hes on the form that dumped Brighton out.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:34 pm

Been very unimpressed by all 22 players on the pitch. Doyley i suppose hasn't played to badly.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:35 pm

Superb tackle from Deleany.

by **Crimey** Mon 27 May 2013, 3:44 pm

Game needs a goal really.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:45 pm

Anya looks a real talent.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 3:57 pm

First Half 0-0.

Think Palace were probably the better side. Zaha causing a few problems and the defenders keeping Vydra and Deeney quiet.

Anya and Doyley playing well for Watford, but they haven't played as well as people would want and expect them to.

Hoping for a class 2nd half though!!!

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:06 pm

Vydra off for Watford is a huge huge blow.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Mon 27 May 2013, 4:14 pm

Wilf Zaha frustrates the life out of me

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:16 pm

Zaha really is over rated. However i bet he goes and scores a wonder goal now.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:18 pm

Doyley

he really wanted that then!

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:20 pm

That palace player is a complete idiot. Why blast the ball at a player on the floor?

Just so stupid. However the Watford's player reaction was a bit over the top.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:21 pm

How dead as the crowd been today btw. All fans should be ashamed of themselves.

A bit? You'd have thought bloody Klitschko would have punched him or something. Jesus christ almighty man upp

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:23 pm

If a player blasts the ball at you, its going to hurt. Also you would put on a reaction IMO.

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:26 pm

What a bluddy good save!!!!

by GSC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:26 pm

Hey look. Wilbraham is crap

Well I suppose you are used to watching Brighton play

by Guest Mon 27 May 2013, 4:27 pm

And another!

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:28 pm

Amazing goalkeeping. Watford's defense starting to fall asleep.

by GSC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:28 pm

Kevin Phillips, 0/3 in playoff finals, is ready

by The Special Juan Mon 27 May 2013, 4:28 pm

When did Almunia become the world's best goalkeeper?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 27 May 2013, 4:28 pm

Wilbraham, then Gabbidon miss huge chances!

Oh Palace you might live to regret these

by NickisBHAFC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:29 pm

Amazing save rather than a poor effort.

What a load of crap Nick! I'd be getting up to have a word. It only hurts if its bloody hard and square in the face or Love sacks.

Almunia was good on loan for us last year, decent keeper who just wasn't Arsenal and top level worthy

by GSC Mon 27 May 2013, 4:34 pm

This has the makings of who dares wins. Watford don't look like daring.
