Stifler Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Just realised I better update my bookmarks to championship pages instead of the prem Also, I think a lot of players will join this summer as we'll need a large squad to cope with the constant games this season. How many more games do we play in the champ? Just the extra eight league games and the extra round in the League Cup. Not anymore, we enter the League Cup at the same stage as the teams in the Premiership who arn't in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Does the Championship have a fantasy league? I think so, I'm sure I've seen some people on other football boards mention that kind of thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 There used to be a website where you could stick your post code in and it would tell you how many miles every ground in the country is from there. Can't for the life of me remember what is was though, anybody know? Why not just use AA route finder? Will be within a mile of each. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 What's the highest fee paid/received for a Championship club? What's the most money spent in a season on a Championship club? (and received?) What's the highest seated attendance? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leffe186 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Will be interesting to see if clubs try to increase their prices for Newcastle visits. I have a vague memory of legislation being introduced to prevent this - can anyone enlighten me? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I dreampt last night that we re-installed King Kev as manager whilst the takeover happened... we won our first game away somewhere 3-0. Beckford scored twice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 2009/10 Overseas TV As promised, we've now managed to get some information on possible overseas coverage of Championship matches featuring Newcastle United next season. The Football League confirm that broadcast licences have now been agreed in the following territories enabling both live and highlights packages to be shown: Albania - Rryci/Supersport Australia - Fox Sports Azerbaijan - Media Eye (Agent) Bulgaria - CME Programming Cyprus - TV Pro Sport Czech Republic - PragoSport (Agent) France - Orange Greece - TV Pro Sport Hungary - PragoSport (Agent) Italy - Sport Italia Malta - Melita Cable Pan-Asia - Goal TV Poland - IKO Romania - PragoSport (Agent) Scandinavia - TV4 Slovaki - PragoSport (Agent) Turkey - Media Eye (Agent) Yugoslavia (former) - IKO USA - Setanta However, there's no concrete guarantee as yet that any of our games will be shown in live or recorded form in any overseas territory - the above listing is merely an attempt at showing who has the legal option to show our games. Not all of the licence holders are broadcasters - those marked as (Agent) hold reselling rights, which may or may not be taken up by broadcasters. Similarly, not all of the licence holders broadcast under their own names, meaning that matches could appear on different channels. The picture should start to become clearer as the season approaches and finalised schedules are published. When that happens we'll try and share that information with you, but if you're overseas and see that the toon are advertised as being on your TV, please let us know. PS: we also asked the Football League about the rights position for streaming audio commentary of Championship games next season. They answered thus: "..the only place that this can be made available is on the subscription section of the club website." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toonarmy Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Interesting, well informed team-by-team season preview for the Championship, including players in and out, new managers and any other changes/major concerns/improvements. Predicts us coming in 14th place. Worth a read: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/columns/story?id=664879&sec=england&root=england&cc=5901 Money quote on Newcastle: "They are in the unfortunate position of being both the prize scalp in the division and utterly unprepared for it."

Ketsbaia Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 their predicted table is probably the best ive seen.....maybe swap leicester and QPR and put bristol city a bit higher. only at newcastle can FFT and the independent predict you to finish 1st, yet the times say 20th. when are we gonna have the NO predictions 2009-10?
