Well Ipswich come back from 2 goals down to get a draw at upton Park. West Ham will be travelling to Ipswich looking to get second time lucky and same for Ipswich.

Preton vs Derby (2-0)

Derby will ahve to pull back to goals to go into the play-off final. Richard Creswell and Nugent scored the goals for Preston to get a 2-0 lead at half time.


What are youre predictions ?

I think it will be Ipswich -v- Preston with Ipswich going up.

Its going to be a Preston vs West Ham final. This is not what I predicted, I thought it would be Derby vs Ipswich, but the underdogs are on top. They will both be meeting in Cardiff. I feel really sorry for Rasiak after he come off crying because he missed a pen. I dont think he should feel sorry for himself, because he played through pain and injury for Derby and his commitment was amazing ! Sham for him though. Derby didnt look like they had it in them though to progress into the final, and I think the better team did go through. but I do think Derby will again be up there next year, well done to George Burley he has been great all year for Derby.

Who will win in Cardiff ? Preston ? or the Hammers ?I'm not sure, Preston are a good team but West Ham have the bigger names. I'm going for West Ham !

I'ma bit torn this afternoon, at the end of the day I hope Preston do it.

I was listening to Alan Pardew on the radio the other day. Apparently no-one has wished him well - anyone who's approached him has basically said "You'd better win or else". So somehow I'd like Alan Pardew to win but not West Ham... shame it can't happen.

Fans with delusions of grandeur like that don't deserve premiership football.

alan has had a lot of stick this season but i think he has down well with West Ham to get them into the play off final he hasnt got much budget but more than most championship managers. alan is a very good manager

I guess i'll be posting my comments on this forum now.
The tactical genius of that man was astounding. Maclean was thought to have been injured for this game but it was kept under wraps, when he was named on the subs bench it gave us all a huge boost and inside that fantastic stadium it went crazy. We looked down and out ten minutes from time, when he introduced him, a beleif was thrown out to the crowd, which was then passed onto the players. Look out southampton!!!!!!!!
Never have i attended a football game with such instilled passion. It was amazing!!!!!! Many tears were shed at the thought of possibly that this is the start of the comeback of the Owls. Fingers crossed!!!!

good luck hammers!!!!!!

1-0 to the Hammers. Back in teh big time lets hope they stay there. I dont think they will though.

i disagree i think they hve quite a good chance as next season there will probably be uite a few teams dow there struggliing: Wigan ( i know they apparently have £25m but no one will want to go), West Brom, Sunderland ish, Portsmouth( minus the YAK) and fulham.
Good luck next season
Hope you'll be forever blowing bubbles
