The only reason he'll leave after that is if we're struggling

Fair play to Sunderland they played well second half, Sheffield Utd didn’t take their chances.
Also well done Aberdeen on the win.
See you all in August PUSB!!

Maybe just me, but it looks more like O'Hare is having some sort of severe allergic reaction, then he's crying...

We can’t be that serious if we’re that bothered about better off teams making it harder for us. Not denying the disadvantages but it does come across very tinpot.

But the facts are there. Teams in receipt of parachute payments are more than 3 times more likely to be promoted than those without them. The playing field is totally unbalanced.

I'm not sure about Ipswich last year or Sunderland this, but before that, since the introduction of them, only 3 clubs have ever been promoted to the Premier League without either being in receipt of parachute payments or failing FFP to do so.

But it doesn't make much difference really if its 3 or 4 teams with parachute payments

Don’t think so. He has an unbanned account doesn’t he. His wind ups are usually a bit wittier too

Sunderland’s squad was worth £140m according to this. They were close to a parachute club already.

Such a lucky team Sunderland. Took 3 months off from Feb to May and then get gifted 2 goals by us and 1 from Kieffer Moore in the finals

But they had banked the play off spot. If we had started better we could have done the same

If it’s a massive problem we should just not bother. The system isn’t gonna change.

Let’s be honest a bit more about us tactically and we could have won the semi easily. Then it’s just a case of taking your chances on the day like Sunderland did.

Leicester.
And it's reciprocated in West Leicester and the towns along the M69, don't think so much in East Leicester.

Think there's a rivalry with all other West mids clubs though they've all got main rivals that aren't us.

Dunno why but I feel really down at Sunderland going up

I cant stand them, and don't care much fir Blades either. I just felt after the final whistle at the SOL last week, that it didnt matter, that Sheffield United would bulldoze whichever one of us it was


Feels like another huge missed opportunity

Imagine how fans like Bristol, Preston, Millwall feel.
They’d kill for what we’ve been through the last 7 years.
