I think Leeds will win the second leg. Like Clint says it was similar to our first leg last season, but it didn't feel like Norwich really went for it themselves.

Wagner is very negative, is he and Norwich really wanted in the Premier League again?

This game very reminiscent of our first leg v boro

Very cagey, hopefully some goals at the baggies

 

[no_loyalty]

Can't stand them. Hope Leeds go through.

Hope Sargent is actually injured.

 

[Hincha]

From this perspective we want Leeds or Southampton up, right?

Definitely.

Norwich & West Brom face difficult summers if they don't go up with parachute payments ending.

Want to face more teams on a level playing field.

Think you're right, Norwich not been great away from home recently aside from a decent win at Preston.

Hopefully Diangana finally fucks off from West Brom so he can stop scoring against us.

Mother in laws birthday - day at theirs with 8 Albion fans... (Of course they aren't at the game!)
Wish me luck.... Unfortunately they've started well!!.....

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Think Saints will be too strong for Albion over 2 legs.

 

[Gint11]

Starting to think playoff 1st legs are completely pointless. It’s fair to have one game home and away but the 1st is so cagey you don’t see the real teams until the 2nd leg, same as ours was last year.

I like the format they use for the National league playoffs, albeit there are more teams who qualify.

 

[alexccfc99]

Did Wagner really have the cheek to criticise us for playing ’not sexy’ football? That Norwich performance was as ugly as they get

 

[Nick]

Both games a bore fest

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Some great goalkeeping on show. Collins would surely have had a few howlers if we’d made the playoffs.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Prime arseing around at the back from Southampton that should have been punished there.

 

[shepardo01]

Southampton have been shite.

 

[Blind-Faith]

Both games a bore fest

Exactly this, both 0-0 draws, waste of an afternoon

 

[Diogenes]

So frustrating - we turn up against any of these four and play like we did against Leicester and wolves and we do them.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Leeds-Southampton final I’d expect

 

[TomRad85]

Southampton and West Brom are both, for different reasons, an extremely dull watch.

Beware of the away team who draws their home leg nil nil on a Sunday...

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

So glad I didn’t bother with these games today they sound great.

 

[shepardo01]

Leeds-Southampton final I’d expect

West Brom the better side today.
Southampton didn't offer much!

No reason you couldn't do that. The format seems to work well. Makes every game a must win and gives rightful advantage to teams that finished higher in the league with home draws.

That league really needs three promotion spots, but it’s a separate conversation.

 

[Evo1883]

Leeds fan been slashed outside the ground , should be really fun for Norwich supporters on Thursday at elland road

 

[fernandopartridge]

I fancy West Brom in the second leg more than I do Southampton on that showing

Unfortunately, so do I!

 

[LastChance]

The higher placed teams play the second leg at home so they get the advantage if the games go to extra-time and penalties.
Got to fancy Leeds for the final, the other tie is too close to call, I reckon

 

[messiahrobins]

So frustrating - we turn up against any of these four and play like we did against Leicester and wolves and we do them.

But we wouldnt have had as so much pressure and our defence was too leaky and we would have been done 1-0 most likely v Leeds.
Fact is Leeds and Southampton are better than us Norwich and West Brom, and one of those clubs will have massively fucked up this season whoever doesnt go back up.

Southampton will batter them. Leeds will as well with Norwich.
Leeds are going up.

They haven’t in 5 previous attempts of the play offs
