Promotion Battle

Have a soft spot for brentford, would love forest back though. My first match was against them.

I've always expected that the teams that were in the top tier when I first started paying attention were the ones that deserve to be in the top tier now, in other words my expectations are set. So consider me disappointed that ipswich Coventry, and forest haven't been regulars all these years.

Swansea only has 45 goals and are 3rd. FFS.

Brentford plz.

You look at that Championship table, 9 out of the top 10 are former Premier League sides

Norwich, Bournemouth and Watford - last season’s relegated teams

Barnsley - one season wonders in 97/98

Cardiff - went down in 2019 after 2 seasons

Swansea - had 7 seasons before going down in 2018

Reading - haven’t been back since relegation in 2013

Middlesbrough - Premier League founders, haven’t been back since their one season return in 16/17

Stoke - long overdue relegation in 2018, been mid table fodder in Championship since

Can’t stand Stoke, snidey horrible fans who are Cockney wannabes.
Bricked our train years ago, windows going in all over the gaff, women and kids screaming. Horrible poor man’s kopite meffs

Ugh. I remember the last time they were in the PL. Absolutely horrible support. No thanks.

The top 2 make me a bit sick and they look nailed on. Absolutely 0 interest in seeing either of those 2 next season..

Somewhat annoying that we're set to lose two "local"ish sides like West Brom and Sheffield Utd (we didn't even get a trip there and it's a banging away) and a good away in Fulham, and we get 7hrs to Norwich, boring Watford and then potentially Swansea or Bournemouth.

I miss the 2010-11 season with 7 North West aways and 5 midlands aways and none to the South coast.

I think Norwich could be a reasonably fun team if they ever stayed up a year or two and got to actually build something of a side but they never do. Sort of like Bournemouth were somewhat fun for a spell.

Norwich is a great city but when you walk around it, you could be forgiven for thinking they don't have team

pretty much everybody in a football shirt (whos under like 80) is wearing a ManU, RS or Arsenal shirt
