What strikes me about the Championship playoff finals is just how often the underdog wins it! I think in at least half of these the team finishing lower that season ends up getting promoted!
ITS BECAUSE THEY MAYBE WANTED IT MORE
@@jeeksmeme2218 smart
@@the_brownie5853 😁
that Huddersfield town promotion in 2017 still gives me goosebumps
@@harrysmokespotter8955 glad we can do that for ya😏
I love the Fulham’s commentators spirits
The Boro commentators on BBC Tees are very similar 😂 Especially on either the Boro vs Man City and the Boro vs Brighton
Yeah but I was wearing headphones so I didn't appreciate it at all.
@@ComradeHellas hahahahha
@@ComradeHellas If youd heard them react to mitrovics stoppage time winner v swansea
Gentleman Jim.
The Championship playoff finals are now, for me, the game of the season to watch. It used to be the FA Cup Final until the big 4 turned them into just another game that interrupts their ECL campaign. You just cannot beat the drama, passion and prize of the richest game in football.
I’m glad the Derby fans enjoyed that playoff final because the season after was atrocious and last season was nearly as disastrous as that
Comments that have aged well!
If last season was Disastrous, whats this season? After the shit they've had, i really do hope they stay up tho.
Still salty then lol
And now, they're in league one. Life comes at you fast
@@thommelom9650 true, I really hope they can turn it round though like it seems Wigan have managed to do, and that Rooney stays!
Best moments of my life so far: Huddersfield being promoted to the prem Birth of my daughter
😂
Wholesome.
The fact that you put your birth of daughter on 2nd...😂
I love your priorities
UTT
As a QPR fan, I can tell you that there have been very few feelings as good as Zamora's late goal vs Derby. Iconic moment for sure.
16:01 - Villa v. Fulham: this one was the best! I'm not a fan of either team. I just love the hysteria of the two commentators. They're great!!
they're hysteric because the clips are from Fulham fc tv btw, so the commentators work for and support Fulham
You didn't see the Arab commentators🔥🔥
I feel so bad for Preston. A club that rich in history deserves a shot at top flight football. I hope someone can take them there soon (and this is from a Bolton fan!)
I never knew Preston was such a storied club
They were in the late 1890s when the football league first division was introduced in 1888 in fact they went invincible in the inaugural 1888-89 Football League First Division season and won the FA Cup in 1889 thus making them the first Club to achieve the The Double
Nah shit club. Definitely don't feel sorry for them
@@vsocarras27 Preston is also the first club to go undefeated in a season. That same year they won the double they won all their games in the league and in the FA cup. This is why that team was monikered "The Invincibles".
If you love English football, you know theses match give us outstanding feelings
Despite being a Chelsea fan but I hope one day I get to watch Blackpool or Sheffield Wednesday play live in a stadium
The championship play offs are so amazing to watch. Even if you don't support any team in the championship it's still a must watch
The atmosphere at playoffs z amazing
Huddersfield is the only team to rise to the premier league with a negative goal average. and we mustn't forget that they promoted without win thanks to penalties.
But we did win,we beat Owls and Reading on penalties which is how things are decided after drawn games.
their goal average was +1
Also the only team to "win" all 3 playoff finals 0-0, that's just what we do!
@@GavHTFC And that's why no one liked u anymore
@@mattsuper1366 it was negative
who would of thought watford v leeds would take near 16 year to be a prem fixture
@Carlow Ancelotti Ok clown
Everyone because they are both banter bottler clubs with no history. AFC Wimbledon are a bigger club than both in my book.
@@denvergangstalkers u seem to be good at trolling. Why don’t u go troll with Uncle Ruckus and Fat Frank the PE Teacher?
@@Hi5GhostMUFC 😂😂

Joe Bryan's goal got to be one of the best in Play off final history, so creative

I only watch Premier League here in the states, but the EFL Playoff is one of the coolest things in football in my opinion. I feel like it's just end-to-end chaos every year. Hoping to watch it when I can in the future. Great video!
ESPN+ will show it
Great idea for a video mate thank you. Cardiff v Blackpool will always be the best playoff final for me, first half especially 👍🏽
Thanks mate & completely agree!

Thanks for the effort to showcase all playoff finals. Nice to see Villa back in Big league after relegation years
I find the semi-finals are usually more dramatic but there's no comparison to the nerves on the stage of the final!
Look where West Ham are now. Challenging for the top 4 in the prem. A major improvement.
And now?
@@user-ri6un7zz6j Struggling.
@@ClassicHarleyQuinn pretty much every average English club, one or two good seasons than relegation/fighting relegation
@@user-ri6un7zz6j True.
Well done for uploading all these, I remember being on holiday in Portugal with a very nervous Blackpool fan when they beat Cardiff. That night even 15 year old me got a free beer like everyone else in the bar. The football team I played for would always have their presentation day in CL/ Play Off final so we’d all pick up our trophies and then sit in the social club watching the play off final. Then play for the next hour or two, have tea and watch the champions league final, then at training on Tuesday talk all about it. Happy days
Thank you! and that sounds like such a good weekend
Great video 👍 Bobby Zamora loved a playoff final
Some really cracking goals there and great passion all around
That Fulham win against villa still sends shivers. My favorite football experience ever
QPR-Derby with the Zamora goal was the wildest finish. 10 men and Derby dominating possession and goal chances. QPR get one shot on goal and made it count.
Great video! I love the play offs
the championship doesnt get enough credit for actually being really interesting
Swansea vs reading for drama .. Swansea almost blew it at 3-0 reading hit the post but won and became first Welsh team to get promoted to prem league especially after Cardiff failed year before
YJB 🦢🏊♂️
Lol @ the Fulham commentators. Relegated twice since then 😂
Haha I had to include the Fulham TV commentary, hilarious
I support Fulham and shhhhh we do not talk about that
Me too 😊☺️😌😊
We’ll be back! FFC4EVER!!!!!
@@jamesdonald7401 I have no doubt Fulham will be promoted in 2022! 2024, 2026, 2028 and 2030 also!
May 25th 2015 will always be special for me. Getting promoted and celebrating my 14th birthday 💛💚
I want the Swans back in the PL
We all do. Next year, 23/24, we’ll do it. 🦢
This reminds me how much I love the play offs! Also Fulham TV looks a right laugh
18:37 goosebumps every single time
Wow I didn’t realise how many playoff finals Derby had bottled
what 2? not that many
@@scoobysnacks6548 yeh I didn’t realise how many
@@scoobysnacks6548 bottled shitloads of semi finals, and in the last 10 years there was plenty if times where they were 1st in December and bottled promotion
@@indiekiddrugpatrol3117 that wasn’t the original point tho he said they’d bottled play off finals when they haven’t really got beat by a better villa side and a last minute QPR goal
@@scoobysnacks6548 villa game we didn't deserve to win and fluked our way to the final but QPR was a complete bottle we dominated that game but fucked up every shot we got and I think going from first at December to not getting promoted also counts as bottling.
I shouldn’t have watched this video as a Reading fan, never felt so low at both finals
As a fellow Reading fan I know how you feel. The Bolton and Walsall defeats were painful too, although they aren't shown here.
Please please please try to do this with other leagues around the world as well. I'm a new futbol fan and this was amazing.
Great compilation vid
great video!
i love how the camera shakes intensely during dramatic moments
This was awesome, good stuff man!
Thank you!
16:51 the fact that wasn’t a pen 😂
Bill Leslie is a great commentator....love it when he does the football league
Fulham did nothing but kick lumps out of the Villa players, Grealish especially. Karma was sweet the following year though
Amazing video
140p quality video, 1080p History & legend
1st place: automatic promotion + trophy. 2nd place: automatic promotion but no trophy. Play off winner: promotion + trophy + Wembley.
Dramatic match 💓
16:48 "YESSSSS PENALTY!! AW, COME ON!!!"
As a Fulham fan, the play-offs are great but brutal to go through
I'm convinced that Derby will be stuck in the Championship forever.
Unless Next Season They Get Relegated To League 1...
@@Dzod500 Think you're right. I don't dislike Derby, but I would put money on them going down
As a Leeds fan, there's always hope lol
They are almost dead certs for relegation this season.
I am a derby fan but do agree
i was at 18 final and it was magical. still surprised grealish didn't get sent off lol but London was black and white for a day
Will never forget the tears of when Joe Bryan scored that first goal against Brentford
Thank you, quality video. Could you do the same for L1 and L2?
Nice work DECO 👏
Thank you very much
Widnass goal, amazing
League one now bro nice video bro
Thank you and thank you for the recommendation!
When they played Song 2 when Villa got promoted, I just sang along 😂
i love the fulham commentary on the aston villa one- i didnt realise that it was gonna be so biased initially but i was surprised haha
sinclair only hatrick. notice the teams who don't win the year after end up going down :S
its crazy to think that preston losing that 05 final could of been our last chance for another 10 years.
West Ham vs Blackpool Vaz Te goal 🤩🤩 the limbs 🤩🤩 goosebumps 10:03
Only cos of a bent fkn ref or you'd of been beat ,was all us after we equalised ✌️
@@mickharrison9004 keep crying
Best atmosphere I have ever been in. Felt like an earthquake when he smashed that in
Something special about the EFL playoff finals
Watching this, assuming nothing bad happens I’m looking forward to seeing the playoffs back with full crowds at the end of this season.
You earned a sub
Thank you very much!
As a Bristol City fan, the guy we conceded to being called Windass really put the cherry on the cake.
Even as someone from the rovers side of Bristol, its a shame to see city never really be the same they were that season, it all kinda fell down from there
Windaaaaas sorry we did that to u guys lol. Hopefully u will get to the prem one day UTT🐯
Bill leslie will for ever be associated with this magical playoffs. Especially the returns of old clubs promoted in premier league.
You should now include Brentford vs Swansea 2021. A warm welcome to your maiden Premier League season Brentford.
One of my favourite games of the football season normally on bank holiday Monday
As a wendsday fan the 2016 play off final really hurt me at the time but it was some goal by Mo Diame but how we won the league one play offs is one of the greatest wendsday moments I've ever seen
Bobby zamora is a playoff legend
This comment is underrated
Say what you like about Bobby z. Always be a legend at Brighton and he turned up that day to put you up and shut you up.
That was a fluky goal and Derby was the better team.
@@krish6754 nothing will hurt like that season that derby side with Hughes, Russel and bryson etc deserved premier league football
@@indiekiddrugpatrol3117 Ok and they floped so they didnt deserve prem football.
lovely
You cannot beat the Bill Leslie and Don Goodman partnership on commentary. The OG’s
Derby so close yet so far
Awesome
RIP Peter Whittingham
VIDEAZO 👌
fulham immediately go down in 2020 but come back in 2020 narrowly winning in a derby against golden era brentford
You might want to re type that comment 😂
@@aaaabbbb2483 I was half a sleep while writing that 😆
The 2014 final against QPR was as gutting as you can get. We had all the possession, virtually every shot of the game, played against ten men for most of the second half, QPR keeper had the game of his life and we lost in virtually the last minute to virtually the only shot QPR had. A moment to be remembered for all the wrong reasons is an understatement. If you lose two or three nil then fair enough but the losers don't even get a loser's medal. Perhaps the best way to get promoted but give me top two anytime. Derby fan.
2022 QPR vs Coventry City, O’hare last minute to secure Coventry to the premier league I can dream 💭 still a possibility
I was laughing my head off when kamara for fulham vs villa when he got tripped then when he got up the villa player was like Nope and just sent him back to the ground. 😂😂😂
Windass goal is the best ever playoff final goal
Jacks SCFC 🏴
2021: 🐝🐝👏👏
Huddersfield have won the league2,theleague 1 and championship finals on penalties after goalless draws inall those finals.
Best part of English football, hands dowm
next time, make sure have between clips, a same sound level
West Ham United Stayed up Watford Went Down Derby County went down with the lowest points ever Hull City stayed up Burnley went down Blackpool went down Swansea City stayed up they would end up winning there first major honour the EFL Cup West Ham United stayed up and are still there Crystal Palace stayed up and are still there QPR went down Norwich City went down Hull City went down Huddersfield Town Stayed up Fulham went down Aston Villa stayed up and are still there Fulham went down Brentford TBA
Fulham and Norwich doing what they do best
Black pools a really sad story. They almost stayed up but ended up going down and ended up being screwed by the Oyston family.
brentford stayed up
forest TBA
@@Brandon-sd7lq Forest got promoted
I'm a luton fan and were going up to the prem
Miss Swansea city
Savor the highlight reels Blackpool you are going backwards such a shame.
Can't wait for 2030/31 Arsenal vs Doncaster. :D
Arsenal will be relegated in the next 5 years
Will Spurs have won a trophy by then??
I think ur talking abt the league 2 play off
@@johnmitchell2269 No.
Doncaster will be no where near championship play off final 🤣🤣🤣
1998 best play off final by a mile 🔴⚪️
I was heart broken when that screamer went in 😣
I think this video has the only 20 seconds of that match where Hull made more noise than us. Pity atmosphere didn't win games, otherwise it would have been a rout!
Zamora’s goal for QPR was a gift, but you won’t hear him complaining.
Blackpool 2 3 Sheffield utd. Reading 2 4 Swansea City were goal scoring.
Blackpool didn’t play Sheffield United 🤦♂️
@@aaaabbbb2483 it was Cardiff City 😀
@@PrasadVignesh1982 it was also 3-2 blackpool
quality of these vids you'd think it was the 1904-1920 play offs
Can someone tell me if 15:28 is Clive Tyldesley and who is that at 12:20? I love both their commentaries!
2021 winners Brentford 🏆🏆🎉🎉🎉
Dean Windass. That's the video.
Very very nice 10.57 the £2billion goal and counting.
So so weird hearing commentators talk about campbell as a threat😂
Do the 2nd placed team in the Championship table also receive a trophy? These play-off are to determined the 3rd team to be promoted to PL, right? And the winners get a trophy.
