Championship 24/25

[roversfan99]

Very strange appointment. Was shit at Norwich.

[Mattyblue]

Oversaw their worst season in fifteen years… ‘Harshly sacked and needed more time’… spot the over-corrector 😅

 

[Upside Down]

According to chaddy every manager that has ever been sacked was done so harshly.

Except Big Val of course, put him in the bin.

didn't they finish 14th 2017/18 season and the same position 13th in 2022/23 season as this season? 

[London blue]

Personally I hope Norwich are relegated for their callous behaviour.

[Mattyblue]

57 points, worst return in 15 years. But yeah, get them down, he was about to turn a corner, you know!

[chaddyrovers]

But not league position 

[Mattyblue]

Did I say it was?

I do enjoy when you do your Mr Pedantic routine but actually strengthen the other person’s point. 👌

Funny how Leicester get charged yet Chelsea are Man City don't.

Almost as though the system is run totally in favour of the biggest and wealthiest clubs...

[USABlue]

Almost?  Has been for some time now.

[JHRover]

Leicester haven't yet rejoined the Football League so I can only assume the authorities will threaten them with rejection and expulsion into non league.

Of course not, they'll be welcomed back into the Championship, allowed to use their parachute money to run a massive wage bill and be favourites for automatic promotion again, just like last time.

The system is a joke and ripe for abuse.

[Hasta]

Hope Sunderland go up this afternoon, if only to show selling your best player and  investing a portion of the profit on a couple of decent signings can actually achieve you success. You don’t need parachute riches.

I'd be amazed if they lay a glove on Sheffield United.

Sheff Utd definitely the favourites, but its a one off game

Sadly, 9/10 you do.

Id like Sunderland to go up because Chris Wilder is an arsehole.

That's an incredible save by Patterson.

[Ferrit]

Come on Sunderland

[Cherry Blue]

Are you watching venkys.  Sickening. 

[M_B]

Brilliant goal

How can you have VAR in the Play Offs when you don’t for the full season, this is still a championship game

Lets just hope VAR don't have to make a decision.

Well it got the second goal ruled out, maybe correctly but after the referee watched it back countless times, it’s just the inconsistency that’s annoying

Same as how they don't have VAR in the FA Cup until the QFs - moronic. All-in or all-out.

sheff utd well worth their lead,sunderland look a bit short on ideas
