actually they have been in the top flight before and were quite successful..they dropped out from the old first division back in the 80's but if ur referring to the Premier League, then yes, they will be the new boys..and thats why I want them instead of Reading..no disrespect to Reading but I prefer a new team and a new ground to visit next season..both teams deserve their place in the final after their efforts this season

To any one of you who are already bored without football (except those Man Utd and Barca fans), then have a change from the normal top flight football and try and enjoy the nitty gritty side of Englsih football for once..of course u will not see the skills like Messi or the goal scoring exploits like Rooney but u will see players playing with passion and enthusiasim that can only be applauded seeing these finals are on the end of a long hard season for them..

So here is the schedule..the League 1 and League 2 Play- off finals take place at Old Trafford while the Championship play-off final will take place at Wembley:

Anyone watching the League 2 Play-off final from Old Trafford?

its not tomorrow..its Monday la..

Well..what a play off final that was..a fantastic match..well done Swansea and to be honest, its ultimately deserving that the 3rd place team in the Chamionshi go up with the top two too..

Credit to Reading for their fightback but ultimately Swansea just edged it and had that extra bit of quality at the back which Reading lacked..1st Welsh team in the remier League and I hope they enjoy their tri around the remier League..whether they stay u or go down is another matter..bit to all the 3 promoted sides, just enjoy every match and every minute of remier League football..

So the 3 promoted to the Premier League are:
QUEENS PARK RANGERS
NORWICH CITY
SWANSEA CITY

3 teams relegated to the Championship are:
BIRMINGHAM CITY
BLACKPOOL
WEST HAM UNITED
