The Championship Thread 2023/2024

I really only care about keeping Nacho. Out of everyone. I really really do hope we can keep him and that he becomes the first name on the teamsheet. Love the twat.

Wish we'd made a move for this guy. Seems to have an impact wherever he goes. To be sacked after a record points haul and promotion is just bizarre.

Dean Smith will rock up at Wednesday. I'm calling it. 

Shout. Think he had a couple seasons there as a player.

Can imagine this is going to get heated 

well their fans were begging for him to be sacked a few weeks ago. So i’m sure some will be thinking it’s a good thing. 

 

The feeling was that they shouldn’t have ended up in the playoffs to begin with.

 

Obviously seems weird when he reached the target but he had a fair few doubters

They were a little unlucky to be fair. It cannot be often that 96 points doesn't get you automatics.

Leeds having a punt?

No way.  But if they’re hiring Corberan this could mean Moore to WBA, which would explain what’s otherwise a very odd move.

I was about to say that we won that division at a canter with exactly the same number of points.

I haven't watched much championship football in a decade. Are there any good players who are technically brilliant that we could sign from other clubs? We can cherry pick who we want from Sunderland or Coventry or anyone else.

They completed bottled it. Were top of the league for weeks while Ipswich and Plymouth stalled a bit.

We can cherry pick as long as we pay them twice as much. That is basically all we have to offer.

we can’t if prem clubs want players from these sides?

[Leicesterpool]

Darren Moore to Leeds? is that a possibility.

Exactly this. Players like Alex Scott, listed above, will have PL sides looking.

Russell Martin to Southampton nearly done apparently.

 

Shame for Barnsley but looks like Duff is going Swansea.

Moore could be the next Steve Bruce.

Sheff Weds, Barnsley... he's done WBA so would need to go to Birmingham, then head up north

Careful at Hull this season lads. Don't want to get mauled by the tigers.

Reckon he gets a championship gig. Not necessarily a good championship job though, a club that is struggling in October.

Can't believe we're in this division to be honest. We ****ed up so badly.
