The Championship starts in a few hours, don't miss it on your Superbru. Grin

There are only two matchdays left after the current round. Good thing the playoffs are included as per noblox I thought it only went up to Round 46. I didn’t even know the EFL Championship had playoffs cause this is my 1st joined this pool and also about the league.

I was in the top 4 at Round 44, but now that Round 46 is finished, I’ve dropped to 7th. I’m hoping I can still catch up and make push from playoffs. Is it correct that this pool will last about one more month, like in the EPL?

No, it looks like this pool is coming to an end at the beginning of the month... so you still have a chance to chase points to stay on the winners list, if I'm not mistaken only up to 5th place will win this pool right?
While my position in this pool is still too far away points, do not expect more because often play worse to get points, not only here all the pools that are followed are in the middle of the table. Sad

EFL Championship Round 44 is completed and yellow cap winner this time is xGennady.

That is total of 0.0466 BTC for first five places, but remember that we first need to finish regular part of the season, and than play-off matches.

Ouf Wrexham just missed the chance to secure a playoff spot. Hull's got the toughest match I think, and Derby should see out Blades, so Wrexham must hope Boro overplay their cards in trying to get second place. So many permutations here. Three teams still can get automatic promotion, and three still can get into the final playoff spot. Only Saints have nothing left to play for, and they'll be stinging from FA cup exit.

This demands a BSFL question I think @cryptofrka no? Who gets second, and who gets the last playoff spot? Wink

Any of Ipswich, Millwall, Middlesbrough and Southampton can finish second to Coventry or play in the playoff.
Wrexham missed the chance to secure a playoff spot because Coventry beat them. Any team between Wrexham, Hull and Derby can clinch the final playoff spot.

I just realized I forgot to check this thread in almost a month, but of course thanks to BSFL I came in here to try to read up and well, nothing new, it is truly difficult to see who's gonna win the playoff. Everything seems to say Wrexham, I have a feeling they won't lose, but the question is if they can win. but since they are the only ones with their own destiny in their hands, I feel it has to be the fantasy story continuation.

So hard but lets see!

EFL Championships delivers once again with last round deciding who is going to Premier League directly, and who is going to play-offs!
Southampton is currently in very good form with two more matches to play and they still have a chance for direct promotion, but they first need to win against Ipswich.
I am not sure Wrexham can win against Middlesbrough, but it is now or never.

The 4 teams in the Championship playoff spots are good enough to play in the final. They want to play in the PL. Coventry are the strongest they became champions. I believe Wrexham is the weak team in the playoffs but they can finish 6th and win promotion to the PL.

It is very difficult for the Wrexham team to qualify for the playoffs, they are a weak team and there is no hope, but a miracle can come to them by winning in this playoff so this is Wrexham's history towards the Premier League that I know.

In this pool I am in 11th place... like Joca97 will keep his first place.

Southampton will face Ipswich Town at home. I can start by saying that this is a match Southampton absolutely must win. Southampton must win this match and hope their opponent drops points. While Southampton may have secured more wins in head-to-head matches against this opponent, most of those games have ended in draws. In nearly all of those matches, both teams have scored. We can expect both teams to score in this match as well. Southampton will not lose at home.

I have a feeling they'll do it. It's one win, it's all they need, and Boro might not actually feel so inclined to do their best (perhaps also depending on tonight's result because if Ipswich win, then there's nothing to play for). I'm actually 40% sure (heh) Wrexham wins, but I second-guessed myself and went for one of the other boys in BSFL. Have to hope Saints win and keeps things exciting later!

What a game. I really thought Southampton would win after the 80th minute when they scored to take a 2–1 lead. But surprisingly, Ipswich Town managed to score in the 87th minute to make it a draw.
This means Southampton will be going to the playoffs, while Ipswich Town are heading back to the EPL. I think Ipswich Town last match will be an easy win for Ipswich since it’s against Queens Park Rangers also this will home game for Ipswich Town.

We saw a drama in the last moments today in Championship when Ipswich scored a goal few minutes before end for final score 2:2.
That gives them one important point in battle for direct promotion, and now they have everything in their hands against QPR at home this weekend.
They got get direct promotion even with a draw, if Millwall doesnt win their match, because they have better goal difference.

I will announce yellow cap winner for this round tomorrow when superbru calculates everything correctly, but I think Mafia was finally kicked out of top 5 positions!

Bad feeling Wink

Get ready guys, last round of Championship is played on Saturday, and than we are moving to play-offs.

Quote from: buwaytress on April 26, 2026, 01:38:10 PM

Just saw this, I'm still catching up. Mafia has a soft spot for the Championship so naturally this deserved to be in.
We will track the knockouts as well, and I think I'll even watch the Wrexham game live. Middlesbrough has a theoretical chance for direct promotion, might be a great one.

Southampton drew with Ipswich at home. The match, which ended goalless in the first half, was a thrilling affair in the second half. Ipswich Town scored the first goal, but Southampton took a 2-1 lead in the 80th minute; however, they couldn’t prevent a late goal and the match ended in a draw. Had they won, they might have had a chance to finish second in the league, but they failed to do so. Both teams put on a fiercely contested match for us right up until the final minute in their quest to secure a point, but we can say that the draw benefited Ipswich the most.

So it still stands: 3 teams can gain automatic promotion, and 3 can qualify for the playoff. This has to be the best final day setup across Europe!

Yeah, that's a nice touch, and I think fully deserved -- on hindsight, adding a "who gets second place" to the question could have made it unnecessarily trickier as well. I'm definitely watching -- streams for Championship are much clearer (don't ask me why haha) and reminiscent of English football from 10 years ago, as they still don't have VAR (only used in playoffs) so there's that quite nice familiarity of flowing football (you know how much I dislike it haha).

Re Wrexham, I'd hoped they spend another season in Championship but seeing the way the season's played out, you know what, I'd like them to gain promotion and set a record impossible to match.

Analyse the weak team theory. Wrexham are the weakest team in the playoff spots but the playoff games are like finals. Two games in the semis and one in the final. The team which wins 3 games will be promoted the PL.

In 1992 Blackburn finished 6th in Division two. They were bottom of the playoff teams but had promotion to the PL after winning the final against Leicester. If Blackburn can do it in 1992 why can't Wrexham in 2026. The team which plays the best game on 3 days earns the right to play in the PL.
