The Championship 2019/20

[TheChosenOne]

Only I could get headbutted in Piccadilly Station Manchester by a Cockney Red after the match, he chose his target carefully - I was 16 and he was about 30 years old.
I expect he was a bit pissed off as we had just won 4-1 at OT
He knew I was a Spurs fan because we had traveled up on the same football special from Euston, albeit in separate coaches.
Fortunately it was a crap headbutt.
FFwd 2 years later in the Paxton I saw him again. Nuff said.

Shame for Brentford, only needed a point to put themselves in control (due to superior GD) for the last game. Sawyer will be devastated

I hope you kicked him up and down the terrace mate.

You will need to buy me 3 pints to loosen my gums.

And if I buy you 5 can you do a re enactment of the whole situation. In the pub. Using an unsuspecting bystander as a prop?

Don't know about that, Charlton have to play Leeds who's players will probably still be hung over.

But wigan still have their 12 point deduction to come and they play fulham who still have a chance of automatic promotion

Yep. Luton’s great escape is very much on

 

[UncleBuck]

Luton Town’s gonna actually stay in the Championship, arent they?

God I hope not, spent a couple of hours in a venue earlier where there were four of their supporters and all they were interested in was having a punch up with Watford next season.
Total inferiority complex with them, poor man’s West Ham.

I want them in the prem so badly. Solely for that stadium.

Delighted for Leeds, always had a soft spot for them dating back to the Bremner/Hunter days. Great to have them back in the Premiership, they are a true sleeping giant.

Living up naaaarth, most of my mates are Leeds fans (missus included). The majority of them are great folks. Went to the game when Man U visited just after Rio had signed for them and that got a bit hairy. But as always, it’s the small section of dickheads ( on both sides) that caused that. I’m glad to see them up as I know how much it means to the city. I think they embrace the ‘Dirty Leeds’ moniker due to the hatred they get. Truth is, they’re some of the funniest football fans I’ve ever met and never worried about being a spurs fan in their company. Won’t be going to when Spurs visit. I’m 0-4 so I think I’m a jinx. On the PSG rumours, it is a thing according to the fans. Rumours been about for over a year now.

I went to the Reading -Leeds game when the Thai royal family had bought Reading. I think it was the first game if the season. The ceremony included the Thai Queen Mum reading out a poem. You can guess how that went down with the travelling Leeds fans who were hungry for their first taste of football following the long summer break. They drowned out her poem with chants of “Get yer tits out for the lads”

Just read that Sheffield Wednesday have a potential points deduction case that hasn't been resolved yet. The powers that be will surely want to get that out of the way this season too.

 

[C0YS]

I'm very happy for Leeds too. I spent a lot of my childhood up north, and while, far a time, it was very amusing to see them relegated twice and struggle to come up the leagues. It got boring about 5 years ago. Leeds is a big city and the biggest club in yorkshire (though maybe Wednesday would have something to say about that!). Watching teams like Hull, Huddersfield and to a latter degree Sheffield Utd go up and have their moments must have been a real irritation.

Went to the last game of the season at Elland Rd v Villa. Paul Robinson was joining us next season I think (crazy to think how many ex Leeds ended up with us). The game was boring and the crowd was a bit flat. We were all talking about how shit it must be to support Villa as they just never did anything. Then there was a big cheer from their fans as a guy dressed up as Elvis started running up and down the stand. The most entertainment through the majority of the game. Well Leeds scored late on and as if it was almost choreographed the chant went up of ‘Elivs, Elvis, what’s the score’. ‘The King’ soon disappears to which the crowd retorted, ‘He’s gone to die on the toilet, He’s gone to die on the Tooooilet’.

Cowley brothers sacked at Huddersfield.

Must be due to off-gield decisions within the club. They've just ensured safety 2 days ago!

 

[Marty]

There are so many basket case clubs around, stuff like this and Pearson at Watford just shows how hard it is for managers even if they look from the outsiders like they're doing a good job.

The Cowleys will get another Champ job, I'm sure.

@RickyVilla ... was having a chat with my Dad yesterday about what the Man Utd fans were like, and he agrees they were animals. He went to a Leeds v Man Utd derby in the early 70s, and the Man U fans were carrying broken glass and nails in their pockets (before searches etc) and were chucking them at the Leeds fans over the fences in the stands. Horrific.

Leeds are Up ...
