Terrible standard but plenty of excitement in a lot of games is the general gist I have from what i've seen. No team down there is prepared for the chasm between the top 2 leagues. Best case for the promoted teams is 17th and build from there like Forest did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 promoted teams from last season were never staying up, it was hardly a reasonable argument at any point. Leicester and Southampton were an embarrassment, lost about 25 home games between them. Only Ipswich had a tiny chance thanks to some half decent away results (they were pitiful at home as well) and I give them credit for taking it as far as they did. You need to be prepared to spend a ton and there's no guarantees you won't go straight back. But maybe yo-yoing for a few seasons, trading as much as possible, can get the finances into a position where it's possible to come up and stay up.

Sibierski Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Leicester were best positioned for me to stay up. Experienced squad, competent manager if unspectacular. But they got itchy early, panicked and went with Rudd because he did well against them. When you look at Cooper results, Man Utd game was only bad defeat, rest turned out against top half sides, whilst they picked points up against sides that have turned out to be bottom half. As the season went on, they would’ve kept chugging along. It’s mad how RVN has picked up points in just 2 of the last 18 league games and he’s still in charge Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnbull2000 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Not arsed myself, but my mam was looking forward to the Arse game and it's on Prime rather than TNT? WTAF. I can just about accept spreading the games during earlier stages, but demanding two subscriptions at the semi final? Fucking scandalous that like.

HalloNUFC Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 (edited) Among the playoff chasing teams none of the top3-6 are in good form & most inform teams are blackburn & millwall. Although the later two have the toughest opponent on paper, sheffield & Burnely respectively. With title on the line Burnley might be just too tough for millwal but blackbuck can thump sheffield into playoffs. In that case with 5 wins in a row blackburn would definitely be the promotion favour. Edited April 29 by HalloNUFC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
