Imagine that just a single goal throughout the course of the season could have seen us trade places. Not even just the swing in head to heads. Brutal!
The harsh reality of all sports,such fine margins!The big thing was it was in our hands right to the last game and we weren’t worrying about other results.
Seen both sides of the play offs there. Third placed team with probably one game too many and not really performing, and team 10 points behind them having momentum with sneaking in on the last day. So glad we didn’t have to go through that. What price a Middlesbrough v Hull final.
I’ll be cheering Hull on..
It’s virtually impossible for all three to stay up but if Hull and Coventry end next season with six wins between them, then it might mean you are the final relegation spot. You need the other promoted two to steal points from other teams in the bottom third. This season has been great, so many teams in the mix for quite some time.
I obviously want Leeds to build on next season, I’d like Ipswich and Hull or Coventry to stay up and three down to include West Ham/Spurs, Palace or Fulham, Brentford maybe.
The PL needs a shake up, a huge part of the problem is players not willing to join newly promoted teams, if you can stay up next season and at least one more established club drops out then that’s good for all of us
At the end of last season when positions were sorted, I was chatting with some Sunderland fans and we virtually all agreed, to survive it’s no use wanting the teams that come up with you to get a battering week in and week out, you need each other to take points from the West Ham’s, Wolves and Palaces.

Southampton expelled so final is now Boro vs Hull. Apparently, we were 1 of the teams they spied on. I am pleased to see the EFL have some guts to do this - yes, it’s not fair on people that had nothing to do with it (players, fans etc) but someone at the club has clearly authorised this and they got caught. EFL and PL are 2 distinct entities but I do believe they need to work together so the punishments for breaking rules are the same for everyone. In this day and age, unless you are going to fine a club £100 million and put them in a transfer embargo, financial punishments do almost nothing to a PL club
I agree it’s harsh but should put a stop to anyone trying this in the future.
The PL don't seem to be willing to pursue any wrongdoers under their jurisdiction.
Hull join us at the top table, in 5th min ET, amazing and perhaps our preferred club.
Well done Tigers!
Well done Tigers!
I think that’s the fairest result to be honest
