Coleman can't call third place Coventry City manager Chris Coleman has said that he cannot say who will take the remaining promotion place from the Championship.Newcastle United were promoted on Monday and yesterday, West Brom secured their place in the top flight with a 3-2 win at Doncaster Rovers, leaving the winner of the Play-Off Final on May 22nd to be promoted.When asked by the CT, about who would be going up with The Geordies and Baggies, Chris Coleman said he couldn't really call it."The Play-Offs are a lottery and it's not necessarily the best team that wins it. A team that just sneaks in on the last day can beat a team who have been in the top three all season," he said."Forest have been up there fighting for second place all season so their quality is obvious, but if you don't get one of the automatic places you're back in the mix where anybody can turn over anybody else, especially in the final when it is down to one game.Swansea are a very good footballing team, Cardiff have got a lot of pace and power up front, Leicester are strong throughout even though recently they lost four on the bounce."It's all about who has got the confidence and self-belief on the day, whatever has gone on before. If you get it right, hit the ground running, you've got a great chance but I couldn't really call it."
