What the hell happened, btw?

They were paying PL wages to most of their players in the Championship for 2 seasons running. Failure to get promotion in both seasons means the windfall of the parachute payments has run out I assume.

 

Partly that and the owner has capital restrictions like all Chinese citizens have and can't put his own money into the club.

Probably only happened nearly every year pre-Ashley but yeah embarrassing to have fallen a few places behind a club you were only ahead of cos an arsehole deliberately ran it into the ground (and even then only semi-regularly)

Can’t wait to hear what Aston Villa legend Gabby Agbonlahor has to say about his team falling below us

 

Their fans seem pretty thick tbh. 'Spent way out of trouble' stuff. Yeah, they've never spent anything Villa :)

Just seen the disallowed goal.... Wow

 

 

 

Sweet karma for them after they survived by Hawk-Eye failing to operate against Sheffield United a few years ago, leading to a fair goal not being given. They'd not be anywhere near where they are without that, they'd have gone down to the championship.

Unlucky for them. I did say I wouldn't swap our final fixture for theirs and this is why. They've been great in helping to dismantle the Sky 6 with us but when it's us or them, Bye Felicia.
