Sounds like a lot of money but it isn't. It's a big jump from League 1 to the Championship. 30m is just 3m for 10 players on average. We had 40m when we sold Gyokeres and Hamer. It could work out well.for them but the odds are it won't. 30m should get them an average Championship side.

Very complementary about Wilder

Has a team ever done consecutive promotions from league 2 (or 4th division) to the PL (or 1st division)?

I think Northampton in 50s/60s are closest doing it in 5 seasons, only took them 4 more seasons to be back in division 4.

My main worry is those two pushing prices for average Championship players tbh. Though I suppose we benefit from the other side if we’re selling this summer.

I reckon we could sell Allen to either of them for 5 million

I think that Northampton did back in the early 60’s, but then went back down almost as fast.

Not only beaten to it, but by someone who knew the details better…

Wilder should have received a touchline ban and it should have been for Saturday or a points deduction which would be waiting until they are next in the championship.

It was a bit before my time but I remember reading about it in the 70s. I thought they done had both promotion & relegation in 3 seasons which would have been even more impressive

Which would be a good season for them

 

[Macca1987]

Just in the kitchen making a cuppa and my mind began to wander, as it does for people my age
A penalty kick away from a potential premier league position
A toe away from a Wembley FA Cup final
A minute away from a potential play-off final again
I don't think there are many teams in the space of 3 years that have gone through the same as us
Glass half empty says, woe are we
Glass half full says, we can do it again
PUSB

Should be points after a while rather than money
They clearly don’t give a shit

They're categorically not spending £30m this summer. The whole facade around them is a bit ridiculous.

They pretty much need a brand new squad, will likely have to vastly overpay for players and have a dinosaur of a manager who is more likely to struggle than succeed at this level.

Yeah there that Rich they haven't even put a roof on a temporary stand that they've built.
