    I didn't bother reading past the first sentence.

    The lack of research is just stunning.

    If you assume that they win their games in hand (which is how i would judge it), Burnley are 10 points behind and QPR are 7 points behind.

    I will not consider that we have ever been 13 points ahead of the playoffs until we have played an equal amount of games as the teams below us.

    After reading the first article which showed a clear lack of research, this is worth a read...

    Would love to say I wrote this myself, but shamelessly stolen from JA606 (yes, I am THAT bored)...

    If he's serious about being a serious journalist he needs to seriously address his seriously poor spelling ...

    "Burnley have two strikers called Ings & Vokes who are highly rated and have a fiersome forward partnership..."

    Read the first paragraph and thought, "yeah, lets give this guy a shot". Only for him to open the article with "Big spending Leicester" <doh> <doh>

    Is 400k really a big spend now?

    AKCJ, the whole thing is a poke at those "journalists" who write about the Championship, yet clearly have no clue about anything other than the Premiership...

    Loving the sig btw, how did you make that!?

    Ah, perhaps I should have read on.


    I'd love to claim I made it but all credit goes to davieG on FoxesTalk.

    I thought exactly the same and FFS, no research etc but I persevered & when I reached "QPR will consolidate after Harry Redknapp bought 3,642 players in the January transfer window" suspected he wasn't as serious as his opening statement <whistle>
