Genuinely happy for them. No chance i wanted birmingham to go down to league one, no way. Was a little gleeful when they equalised as they have had a lot of pooh to put up with, and any team who dislikes villa and wolves is a good team in my eyes :D

Really pleased for Blues.

Was willing them to score.

That Abe on loan from Man Utd looks a great player!

Amazing final day for Brighton and Birmingham. I'm really pleased that Brighton got into the play offs ahead of Reading. I never though at 2-0 Blues would turn it around and amazingly they did.

Isn't it Ibe (not said as eye-be as the commentator kept calling him ) from Liverpool? Macheda's from United.

Chuffed for Blues, thought they were dead and buried at 2-0, thoroughly deserved a point apparently. Relegation could have been disastrous for them.

Yes they did, the Bolton goal was completely against the run of play - and previously Zigic had a goal disallowed wrongly. They then got countered on and the keeper made a howler but inbetween and after they had some really good chances and played decently.

Yeah you're right, I got confused as usual. ;D

Thanks for pointing it out.

You hear that kind of thing from so many clubs when they go up. In truth it would be very silly to let it be known how much you are willing to spend as clubs will hold you to ransom for players. It can also be harder to spend big money than you expect depending on the competition from other clubs for a players signature.

I enjoyed the Brighton v Derby game last night, I hope that Brighton can turn it around in the second leg. Hopefully Wigan can beat QPR tonight.

I'm looking forward to hearing what astronomical figure the winning team stands to receive... usually announced to us seconds before the game kicks off. I reckon we'll be told the game will be worth 100 million to the victors. Anyone else care to have a stab at what the made up figure will be? 8)

The likely winner of Derby v QPR is a really tough one to predict.

From an Albion supporter perspective I'd prefer Derby.

Another Midland team in the Prem, a decent awayday and not too expensive or too far to travel. 

Obviously any club in London is a decent day out as well, but I'm not too bothered for having media darling Harry Redknapp back in the same league as us.

Much much prefer Derby to win

No more London sides.... especially one with an owner who will throw his money around on average players over inflating the market

Definitely prefer Derby. Living in Nottingham next year so an easy away game.

I read the other day that QPR's wage bill is bigger than Atletico Madrid's, on average attendances 30k lower than Atleti's.  That kind of sugardaddy madness is what's wrecking modern football; we don't need it back in the Prem.  Justice would be served if QPR lost and Tony Fernandes did a runner, but unfortunately, I fear Derby are going to fall at the last hurdle and money will win out over merit.

Have to agree, apart from the ground which was awesome and the view - the sight of Giles Barnes racing down the right and crossing for Stephen Pearson to sweep home STILL gives me ******* nightmares  :'(
