    thought it was miles offside but on the reply it was correct in a game they really dont deserve to be winning a draw at best.

    If there is any justice at the end of the season, ourselves and Sunderland will take the top 2

    To be fair Burnley and Sheffield United are just playing to their strengths.

    No law against it. Just boring as ****.

    Blunts will stick the pace but apart from that ridiculous defence Burnley have nothing. Won’t catch top two with nil nils and one nils

    Games are starting to feel more important now as we get close to the last 10. A win tomorrow puts us in a real good place. I fancy us but Sunderland are like Newcastle they tend to play there better football in the bigger games. They deffo will have spells tomorrow night should be a good game as they will deffo not come parking the bus.

    I’m the same mate, got the feel of a real big game this. If we can win, that should, more or less take Sunderland out of our equation without ruling them out as far as the other two go. By that I mean, Sheffield United and Burnley still have to play each other. If I’m being really greedy, win the next three and we would be in a fabulous position.

    Weird, half of me loves the Championship but still got a huge desire for us to get promoted :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Feel exactly the same mate. The championship is the exciting League, you will win a fair few, There is plenty to play for even if you don't have a brilliant season ie Blackburn,Boro,Wendies etc plus none of that var shyte. But the place to be is the Prem. loads of dosh, you attract the better Players. There are things to play for but seriously its going to be a Relegation dog fight for the first couple of seasons with a lot more defeats than wins. The 3 that went up look the ones that will come back down its going to be tough if we get there but we all want to be there.

    The championship feels good whilst we have a team that can compete, lose the parachute money and I’m sure with the players we’d have to move on it wouldn’t feel much fun

    Exactly this.

    If we fail this season then we'd be playing for a play off place next season not the top two. Couple of seasons after that we'd become a Stoke.

    The Gary monk season was far more enjoyable than last two fiascos in the pl. no problem with going up as long as we are properly resourced to compete in it. If the dish mainly goes to players in exorbitant bonuses and wages then it’s pointless. Can anyone seriously claim our pl team of last two seasons was any better than present one. They weren’t. They just earned more and drove bigger cars

    Yes but if we don’t go up we won’t be properly resourced to compete for autos next season.

    That’s why promotion is a poisoned chalice.

    In the PL there’s no point in trying to compete financially. Recruitment is the key.

    And recruitment has been pretty much spot on recently.

    So there is hope :biggrin:

    Farke seems to have an input in recruitment and hasn’t been many ducks signed since Farke took over over

    Sign too many ducks for the PL and we’d never survive. We’d just be treading water <whistle>
