We did miss you. We used to do ok against you We're going to be coming up against a lot of great clubs next year.
Most of them will see you as their cup final...... It's not the cake walk out of the division for big clubs it once was for those coming down.
Yay Leeds, the club that managed to **** things up even more than us! Looking forward to the away trip!
Are Leeds still going? I coulda sworn they folded? I'm looking at the Championship now and thinking wow, i really didnt know some of these teams were still about? Some of them I havent even heard of, where's Burton? Whose Leed's manager now? is it still that rotherham chap? cant be, he's had the job for more than two weeks musta been sacked by now?
Scarily enough he's still there. Hasn't had his contract renewed though, so likely not to be there next season. Boston was my home town, and in the early 2000's Steve Evans got them promoted to the league....he then left and they suffered 3 relegations (2 proper relegations and 1 demotion) in 2 seasons, because he was a raving crook who falsified the accounts. Amazing to see that fat lump of lard anywhere near football, nevermind in the Championship!
Leeds, Forrest, Villa, Blackburn, Derby, Birmingham and Sheffield Wednesday if they don't win the play off's, all prestigious clubs in the championship.
Villa? Prestigious? Wow thats the first time I've heard those two words in the same sentance, honestly!
A lot more than us sadly - including being European champions courtesy of another one of our sold stars!
Indeed we did, Peter Withe. Gutted when he was sold, but, to be fair in true NUFC style, we obviously upgraded with one of the all time greats in _ _ c _ _a _ _ _ _ d So overwhelmed with his signing, I still cant bring myself to say his name.
You've got me thinking now. I must have erased him from my mind. I thought we replaced him with the mighty Bobby Shinton
Had to look it up but got it. Now I realise why I wiped him from my mind! Do you remember we re-signed him for 10 minutes later on in his career because we hadn't been paid for him and his next club had to give him back to us to pay the debt and we had arranged his sale even before he was given back?
