    Championship thread 24/25!

    Couldn’t see it from the first angle but what is the keeper doing diving into the scramble on the floor? He stays where he is after the first save and they most likely don’t concede.

    Classic smash and grab from Forest at Anfield. 25% possession, 3 shots on target, and a 1-0 win.

    As much as it pains me to say it, Leicester unburdened of the point deductions don’t look a bad team and should easily survive relegation ahead of Southampton, Ipswich and Everton. Jammiest bastards in football, I tell ya.

    Never heard that before Cole said it, so he might just talking out of his arse. Wouldn’t surprise me refs are easily influenced though, saw it throughout Fergies reign.

    If Archer doesn’t steal that penalty off Diaz, might’ve been a different game. Was all Southampton until the pen miss.

    High and stupid, but not dangerous. Definitely not “horrendous” like Joe Cole was making out. Not saying it wasn’t a red. And what’s all this shit about statistically more likely to get a red card along the opposition bench, that’s means refs are making decisions based on reactions rather than...

    Don’t think it was as bad as being made out by the commentary

    ex players - what could have been

    Bigi could’ve been an absolute star had things went differently for him, great athletically and technically. Fell victim to bigger clubs collecting players, and then discarding the ones that didn’t have immediate success, hampering their progression in the process. if he’d came through these...

    Prices can go up as well as down

    EMC has taken a step up in career and will take time for him to adjust, you get far less freedom and time in the championship, regardless of how good you are. I trust he’ll come good once he’s up to speed and had a good run of minutes. It took Haji a good run of game time to get up to speed and...

    Promotion - what are we up against...

    We can’t be too far off Middlesbrough, depending on the criteria (money spent or market value of players) Transfermarkt has us 103rd in the world for “purchase value”, 1 place behind Middlesbrough. God bless the talent that was Big Vik, the gift that keeps on giving.

    They've Got Off Spot-Free AGAIN

    It’s all on the premier league/football league. They hastily draft up rules to try and catch out the biggest offender, leaving some pretty glaring loopholes that clubs are savvy enough to exploit (Chelsea contract amortisation/Man City sponsorship doping/various clubs moving around academy...

    They've Got Off Spot-Free AGAIN

    it’s just all so tiring isn’t it? Clubs moving players/money around to “sister clubs”, owners selling non football related assets to other companies they own/work with, or inflating sponsorships by using their own companies to cheat financial rules. Football has quickly become a game decided at...

    They've Got Off Spot-Free AGAIN

    Yeah Dewsbury-Hall went to Chelsea but was their only big departure, they spent about £70+ million and signed some decent players like Skipp, Edouard and Ayew to add to what was already a relegation battle quality team they came up with. Time will tell, but they don’t look a bad survival team...

    They've Got Off Spot-Free AGAIN

    They absolutely can, they haven’t looked as terrible as you’d think they would. Drew with Tottenham and could’ve won, should’ve knicked a draw with Villa. Depending on other teams getting point deductions, There are at least 3 teams who could be worse than Leicester this season, especially if...

    They've Got Off Spot-Free AGAIN

    I have no faith that they have a case against Man City. You’d think the Leicester case would be so shut and dry that they couldn’t possibly fuck it up. Absolutely toothless. What’s the point trying to be a championship club aiming for promotion trying to recruit sensibly and sell on to do...

    For all the shit they gave McTominay, he’d at least look like he cared most of the time, outside of Collyer most of these look like they couldn’t give a shit they’re getting tonked at Home to Liverpool
