For those that wisely stay away from such sites, the standings at the time of posting: Brighton 30% Derby 20% Hull 23% Sheffield Wednesday 27% Possible reasons: - Vote represents proportion fans of each club that are actually on Twitter who have voted for their own club. - People vote against their least favourite out of a weird spite. - We're actually the underdogs, despite our pre-season favourites for promotion tag. I find this quite reassuring - makes me think that proportionally to the other 3 clubs, we have more fans who have actually got a real life and stay away from Twitter. Therefore not surprised Brighton are favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van der MoodHoover Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Hughton just being quoted as saying how difficult it has been to pick his players up after Middlesbrough. They may struggle. It's easy for any so called expert to extrapolate from us losing a first team midfielder to injury to conclude we're outsiders. Our last 3 results also helped their superficial analysis.

And bits covered by our badge. Had to throw my mouse mat away, it was giving me flashbacks. And it was all before he was our manager. Bad times.

Animal is a Ram Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 The idealist in me wants to think this will ease our pressure and lump it on the other three. The realist, however, knows this actually means feck all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Vegas Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I'm not entirely surprised to be honest. Brighton and Hull have had better seasons, while Wednesday have more fans. Simple really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archied Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Doesn't really affect us if Brighton have a hangover from missing auto s , we can only meet them at Wembley , now they may go into the semi s with a hangover and lose because of it but if they win the semi s and get to Wembley it's pretty much blown away the hangover and they go to Wembley lifted by victory and fully focused on the job in hand,,, not saying we can't beat them if we get there and they do too but missing auto promotion won't really be a factor by then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the votes are driven by the gay vote for Brighton, the Premier league vote for Hull, and as for Wednesday I don't know but they have looked the best of the other three in our recent games. Plus we have had a habit of playing badly when the Sky cameras are on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I don't know how this has happened but in another completely balanced poll, we're complete favourites with 45% of the vote! http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/Play-push-Derby-County-backed-win-promotion-poll/story-29263978-detail/story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
