    From Forest down it really is a poor division, Barnsley might do okay next season if they keep the coach and players together, they just fail to convert chances.

    Top 6 were the best 6 all season, can’t argue with those final positions

    Happy that Barnsley survived.

    Happy that Bilic got it done.

    Happy Brentford might stop down (apparently we are interested in Benrahma)

    Happy that Forest bottled it at the last second.

    Play offs should be amazing. 2 Welsh clubs who sneaked in the back door vs 2 excellent teams who are off form.

    Yep. Might be worth a sneaky bet on them to go up next year. They are highly talented young team with a coach who got them playing really good stuff. If they get a goalscorer they could be dark horses for promotion.

    So, 10 points clear of second and 12 points clear of third.

    Even after Sky loaded the dice by making us play after our chasers week after week in the hope of a Leeds wobble to generate a story and safeguard their Championship cash cow, and West Brom & Brentford winning week after week, Leeds won game after game after game, even when the others finally bricked it.

    Never let me hear Leeds branded as bottlers again.

    Worthy Champions by a country mile.

    So an open top bus was parked outside the east stand. Yes the players did get on it i do not know if it moved. Lots of fans are very annoyed about it.

    Honest question :

    Everyone is saying Wigan are down, even all the media outlets have them as relegated.

    Does noone give them any hope of winning their appeal? I mean the deduction hasn't even technically happened yet has it?

    Sky sports have just said that it was the councils idea. Fans had congregated outside the stadium and the thinking was that if the players made an appearance in front of the fans and then went back inside the ground then the fans would disperse.

    Knew something was planned, seen the bus decked out with champions earlier today, and they blocked low field road to cars and had signs for no bottles.

    Yes it has happened,as soon as the last game finished, and can't see them winning any appeal as it would only bring on other appeals and next season wouldn't then start on time.

    So how do the council plan to track and trace if some fans test positive for covid19. A total shambles of an idea and a stab in the back for all who isolated and especially the fans who heeded the advice and stayed away. Feck it ive been saying for weeks now just look after your own.

    Meh, they shouldn't have turned up at the ground to be fair. Not sure rewarding them with the team coming out to see them was the right thing. Or having an open top bus there!

    Scousers did the same though.
