I don’t think this is a terrible result. If Leeds are confirmed champions on Sunday then they will have nothing to play for. In that scenario I can see us getting something from that game. The same as when we went up as champions and played West Brom last game of the season who needed to win to stay up - they cruised to an easy 2-0.
Funnily Fulham can get within two points of them tomorrow
If Brentford lose themselves tomorrow then Fulham can go into the last day of the season knowing that a win for them on the final day could see them pinch second too
Depends how Fulham want it but even if Brentford win tomorrow
Fulham may want to win the next two and so avoid Nottm Forest in the Play-Offs if West Brom mess up on the final day
Now let me think... Who do Fulham play on the final day?
Not really what we wanted, a win is imperative now tomorrow. Congrats to Leeds which may help us next week. West Brom have probably blown it now and will find the play-offs tough. Looking like Brentford will start life in their new stadium as a Premier League club.
See what happens when you attack teams & not sit back.
Assume you weren’t watching the match.
Their goalkeeper was booked for time wasting about 10 seconds before the goal!
Huddersfield played exactly how we've been playing of late - They got the goal early which settled their nerves, sat back and invited West Brom to break them down which they couldnt
The difference was; Huddersfield used one of their breaks to go up the other end to seal victory, whereas we've not been able to

West Broms goal difference is better so unless they loss to QPR then Fulham will have to settle for Wigan

Still a chance of QPR nicking a late winner on the final day though
If Fulham have saved themselves as a result rather than doing all they can then they're going to feel bloody stupid
Of course thats the alternative risk for us ending up with two draws in these next two games like I've been saying
E.g. If Luton and Wigan are both matching our score yet get late winners themselves then thats where we'll be screwed

They still got forward.......unless their goalkeeper scored direct from the goal kick...🤔. No, I distinctly remember their player scoring from inside West Broms penalty area.
Whereas we didn't get past the half way line for the last 10 mins.
Draw tomorrow and Wigan remain 3 points behind us with 1 to play and no guarantees they will win it. That leaves Barnsley having to win their last 2 to pass us, which is unlikely. That then just leaves Hull or Luton to drop points tomorrow and lose their last game for us to escape the drop. Sounds easy when you put it like that eh?
Ideally, we beat Wigan and celebrate. Remember, people, they only drew 0-0 with Barnsley a week ago, had low possession, only 5 shots the whole game and no shots on target. We have to believe in ourselves.
Leeds are virtually guaranteed the Championship. 6 points ahead with only 2 games left and a significantly better gd. A point this weekend makes them champions so hope they all go out on the piss and have massive hangovers Wednesday. No crowd must be a big advantage to us on this one.

Well done to Huddersfield too for securing safety, hope we can join you
I really hope they get fucked in the playoffs

They've been toothless since the restart

It's all set up for a dejected 3rd place West Brom to lose to Millwall in the playoffs...

We stay ahead on Goal Difference
