Championship thread 25/26! (52 Viewers)

I think their may be something in the contract regarding minimum amount of live appearances, I know that's been the case in the past, no idea if it's part of the current deal but it may offer an answer to your question.

This may be one of those nights where the wife gets to watch tv as much as she wants then as long as its not Eastenders

On the Southampton v Norwich match, I think there's something about postponed matches can't be broadcast if they were originally scheduled for 3pm on a Saturday.

I think they can but only if both clubs agree to it.

I seem to remember for our Hull home match a couple of seasons ago, which was moved for the cup, Hull fans were annoyed because we said no to the match being on?

Our players record on return from injury is not that good imo - takes them 2-3 matches to settle back in

Oh I think they’ll have a slight incentive to improve on that this time.

I’m sure it is part of the current deal.

I think we’ll do it but I confess that a win at Swansea would do wonders for my confidence

Which team would you swap places with?

Arsenal

It’s not logic or rational
I’m sorry

Surely you must be worried about Hackney being out. Everything seems to go through him.

Curry i had lastnight went through me. Not sure ill be out for 4-6 weeks though? 24 hours at most!

Massive blow for them. Be like us losing Grimes.,especially with the games they’ve got in that time

They’re conflating two things that aren’t necessarily good markers of one another

So number of points means a team is really good!!! Mm ok maybe but what if there were more teams who were just better wouldn’t that mean the number of points would reduce?

oh well whoever goes up won’t give a shit if they get less than 83 I know I wouldn’t

I don’t get this argument, surely not having teams run away with it means the league is far more competitive… almost like the rest of the championship has caught up with the parachute teams

You need a game to happen, all this waiting is what's worse. A win on Saturday and you'll be much happier going into the break.

For a minute or two and then ……. No I’m sure you’re correct

Since when did you turn into one of the biggest bed wetters on the forum? This isn't you, pull yourself together, we've got this.

If someone said just prior to the Boro game, we're going to win 6 on the bounce followed by a slightly unlucky defeat to Southampton, you'd have snapped their hand off. My gut instinct instinct is that tomorrow mid afternoon will be closest any team gets between now and the end of the season.

Not sure Conway’s a miss

Well he's certainly not a big hit

 

[Liquid Gold]

I might be in the minority on this forum but I like both Conway and Stansfield. They're not out and out goalscorers and they were both overpaid for but I like busy forwards.

Both Blues and Boro need a proper 9 to go with them.

Last time I checked he was a Mr

The 3pm black out strangely applies even if the game is no longer 3pm on a Saturday

There's nothing illogical about your caution Pete (sorry!).

I am desperate for promotion, and (just as much) the Championship title. We're in a fantastic strong position, and I get why people are confident.

What I don't get is the certainty, the crowing about guards of honour, open top buses, marquee signings and so on. And all these 99% odds seem way off to me - surely it would only take a couple of poor weekends to make things really tight again.

I hope there isn't the kind of complacency to be found on here amongst the players, and I'm pretty sure Frank won't allow it.

Agreed-they did a video when we appointed Lampard, and both said it was a terrible decision - experts my arse.

Peach is definitely a Derby fan (wearing brown cans).
