The Championship Thread 2023/2024

how much are away tickets in the champ these days? more than the PL £30?

I would imagine as they were before. The bigger clubs will probably charge more ie Leeds. 
 

The Premier League is capped at £30 which is the best thing as a travelling fan. We are no longer going to get capped prices.

Yes.

No price cap.

Enjoy paying £45 for Hull away on a tuesday night in February.

It’s no cheaper mate, I was speaking to my mate who’s a Cov fan and he reckons it’s still expensive. He said he paid £40 to watch Luton away. 
 

So it’s no cheaper, and it’s a lot shitter.

No cap, it's entirely up to the teams to charge what they want (as long as away fans aren't charged more than home fans for the equivalent seats).  Typically most teams negotiate a mutual deal where they agree to charge each other the same amount, often less than £30.  So that depends how Leicester want to play it.

I went to Cov, Forest and Derby last season in the away end. None of the tickets were over £30.

I literally know nothing about these bums. If you know who manages the likes of Preston, Birmingham and Hull, you need to get out the house more. 

Ryan Lowe manages Preston and I only know that as I live and work near Preston and some of my colleagues are Preston fans. As for Birmingham and Hull my guess would be Trevor Francis and Phil Brown.

I have no idea who we’ll be able to hold onto, but, if we can keep this lot, we have a chance:

 

Iversen 

Thomas

Kristiansen

Souttar 

JJ

KDH (captain) 

Kelechi 

Daka 

Vardy

 

Problem is - there’s a HUGE rebuild that needs to happen to create a squad capable of staying fit and ready for 46 games.  And we’ve got about 2 months to make that happen. Recruitment and contracts need to be spot on.

that's an expensive wage bill. But I agree. And with KDH as captain too

We are club that don’t seem to be able to work on more than one signing at a time. We’ll have to get in at least 10 new players no way can this board manage to work on that many deals in 10 weeks. That’s without finding a manager and back room staff. All whilst the director of football and chief executives places should be under threat. 

Bang on. Club can't even scrape together two signings before deadline day (and when they do, they are garbage). The thought of 10-15 new signings within a reasonable time frame is beyond the capacity of this club.

19 teams in the Championship, have been a Premiership club at some stage. 

 

So head coaches at the moment:and who’s in the Championship.

 

Birmingham - John Eustace

Blackburn - Jon Dahl Tomosson

Bristol City - Nigel Pearson

Cardiff City - Stan Lamouchi

Coventry City - Mark Robins

Huddlesfield Town - TBC

Hull City - Liam Roseniar

Ipswich Town - Kieran McKenna

Leeds United - TBC

Leicester City - TBC

Middlesborough - Michael Carrick

Millwall - Gary Rowett

Norwich - David Wagner

Plymouth Argyle - Stephen Schumacher

Preston North End - Ryan Lowe

Queens Park Rangers - Gareth Ainsworth

Rotherham United - Matt Taylor

Southampton - TBC

Stoke City - Alex Neil

Sunderland - Tony Mowbray

Swansea - Russell Martin

Watford - Valerie’s Ismael

West Bromwich Albion - Carlos Coberan

 

The League One playoff is today, between Barnsley and Sheffield Wednesday. 
 

So out of the 24 clubs, I think it’s only Bristol, Rotherham, Plymouth, Preston and Millwall that have never been a Premier League club (obviously some have previously been too flight).
